Dynamode R-ADSL-C4W-G2 54Mbps Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router And Wireless USB Adapter Bundle

I got this with Plays usual quick delivery and for £15 all in cannot complain.
This is the first wireless setup I've ever used so was unsure how to set it up. I have a 3 year old machine on XP.
My advice is not to load the drivers for the wireless dongle or the router as these just end up conflicting with windows, so to begin with only use the supplied CDs for looking at the instructions.

Before beginning you'll need to know your general router config settings and username and password for your ISP.

The one page you can load is the 198.162.1.1. site (you'll need the password, its usually username admin with password left blank or admin) which will recognise the router and allow you to config it.

Follow the setup screen with your ISP info and you can also set the wireless connection to be password protected (WEP) to stop neighbours connecting. You will also set the admin account to a new password so that your new settings are only editable by yourself. (Make a note of settings and passwords).

That should be it, you can now disconnect the ethernet cable, switch off the pc, insert the dongle into the USB, reboot and with the router on and transmitting wirelessly it is ready to connect

I've used this router now for over a month for both my PC and PS3 without problem, I'd recommend it.
