I've had a Linksys router on my NTL cable for about18 months, except for a
couple of months when I ran a smoothwall box, In the end my family complained
about the noise from the Smoothie box so I put the linksys back.
I've just upgraded the Linksys firmware to fix some bugs with MSN Messenger,
not for my benefit but with 4 other users it's easy to get complaints if
something is broken.
