    Wireless router with built in adsl modem.

    Can anyone recommend one at all and how easy is the security to set up on one of these?

    You know, unless the savings are really there, I don't think you'd want those integrated. The latest combo boxes don't seem to be out, so the latest consumer combo boxes seem to be router + 802.11b

    I think you'd do better to get a modem/router combo, and an 802.11<B>g</B> WAP to plug into it.

        As Wombat say's there are currently no 802.11g ADSL routers available but here's some alternative solutions

          That's not an ADSL router

            Perhaps I won't bother after all looks like it's going to rather expensive.

                I'm not sure but I think all products coming out right now are just 802.11g DRAFT and you'll have to update the firmware to get the final spec.

                Cisco is (was?) running a nice promo on an Aironet AP with 5 PCMCIA for 350 €. It's only 10Mbps but it's secure (at least more than the WEP ones -given you'll get WAP only on newest models....).

                  Just ordered a standard adsl modem and router combo. I was toying around with the idea of wireless as I could be anywhere in the house and still have a connection. Makes it easier when theres visitors.
