Title: Just got one of these ............
Post by: JB on Nov 23, 2010, 16:10:37
I've just plunged headlong into the 20th century and got one of these :-

Absolutely brilliant value for the money. Such a pleasant change to be able to shunt around large mpg's so much more quickly  :thumb:

Ah, sweet youth, when we take for granted that being able to stand on one leg and play the flute is perfectly normal. ;D

Not needed. 4 ports on the 2Wire 2700 is enough over there. Yes the trusty 2Wire even works on Telefonica.

No need to move anything quickly over there.

There's always mañana.
