router that works with dsl
Just a quick question on behalf of a friend really. Hes looking for a new router that will work with Bulldog (8 meg) Im assuming it will have to have a built in modem as well, as he is looking to ditch his USB modem he is currently using. (wanting to go ethernet)

Hes looking for a Linksys.... any model numbers he should look out for...

Does it have to be Linksys ? What's your friends budget ? Wired or wireless ?

I've never used Linksys, have always had Netgear routers. But looking here the reviews seem favourable. But maybe some other Linksys users can give their experiences, with that particular model. The prices for wired and wireless, is pretty negligible, so you may as well go for wireless. You can always disable it anyway, should you choose to go wired.
