Very slow with my Netgear Router: Rangemax WNR834B v2 + wireless connectivity is down from 100% to 23%. Lots of errors in the Firefox consule. Slightly quicker with the Epiphany browser, but still same low connectivity. Some websites won't work at all. When I tried with a computer running Microsoft XP OS connectivity was back to 100%, same when I took my computer back to Ubuntu 9.4.

But just tried it with a friends BT Homehub and it seems fine.

I think people in other post suggested 'cheap' routers are the problem are being unfair - how many people can afford to just nip out and buy a brand new expensive router? and how would you be sure it would work anyway?

Good luck to all of us!
