    NETGEAR RangeMax Next Wireless-N Modem Router

    This is what I had my mind on, but will come to this later I guess @ColinTaylor yes I intend for it to be used as a wireless repeater/extender also! I have trialed some power line adapters but it hasn’t really done what I’ve expected it to do. But at that price range maybe it’s worth using...

    NETGEAR RangeMax Next Wireless-N Modem Router

    Yeah will just have a Quick Look for a basic TP link router that i can use as a relay on the first floor maybe! Talktalk, do have a funny reputation though, when I lived in a different city and I joined them, all the traffic for my internet would go through BearFruits dns server which made no...

    I also do find it interesting that searching TalkTalk Sagecom CS50001 keeps bringing up this Huawei DG8041w, I mean it looks identical to what was sent to me but again the sticker on the back of mine says sagecom 😂

    NETGEAR RangeMax Next Wireless-N Modem Router

    You will be surprised what they do, they even report that the router is a £200 pound piece of kit that you get for free for joining them, it’s not the same one but wouldn’t be surprise if the internals are the same!

    NETGEAR RangeMax Next Wireless-N Modem Router

    @Tech9 historically the router they supply has been pretty bad at signal strength, have spoken to some IT people at work and they buying your own router. But then again, if I can l link this router or another stronger one to the ISP I would not be totally against that to just get the strength of...

    NETGEAR RangeMax Next Wireless-N Modem Router

    Thanks for the info! I’ve just noticed that the standard modem supplied from the ISP struggles to get WiFi signal across the house, was thinking maybe this might do better. And just a newer connection I guess, compared to the ADSL2+ the house is newer than the Modem aha

    NETGEAR RangeMax Next Wireless-N Modem Router

    Hello all, Sorry for being a new, just wanted to check a few things with those who understand a lot more than me; took a Quick Look at existing threads but couldn’t seem to find anything. I’ve got an old RangeMax Next Wireless-N DG834N. I was wondering would I be able to use this as a modem...
