    I've had my trusty Netgear DG814 for ages, and in fairness its been faultless.

    However, im looking for a new one, nothing too flash or expensive.
    Would require Port forwarding, and also show my line status, ie attenuation, noise levels etc.

    Im on ADSL by the way.
    Four ports or more please, and something reliable that doesnt need reboots every day :)

    Thanks in advance.

    This might be silly question but if its trusty and daultless why do you want another router?

    The only reason is that i want a router that will give me line stats :)

    And it was cheap enough :)

    WAG54G is good.
    The old '54g' was a bit shaky, depending on the revision you got.
    But the '354g' is a very good product.
