Hi all,

My old router burned out, it was a IPTIME G304, and did a good job for three years.

The biggest gripe I had was that the admin was all in Korean, so I could not effectively impose basic security measures, basically, you get easily on my network and with some tinkering probably find access to individual computers.

So I am looking for a decent router with English admin possibilities.

Cheers.

Some Linksys and Belkin routers can be had with English. My Belkin lets me choose the language.

Here is mine:

I like the N signal ability. I have a couple of Unicorn brand N USB lan cards, and they work well together.

THX for the quick reply

300Mbps, isn't the standard 10/100?

How do they get 300 out of it?

I have 4-5 computers using the router, with one LAN connection.

So it should be a good workhorse.

I recommend the Linksys WRT54G. I've had mine for over a year and it's been great. You can install custom firmware on it too. You can get one for pretty cheap, maybe 40,000 won, at Yongsan.

WRT54G v4 seconded.

make sure to get no later than version 4 as they changed the hardware for the worse with some later versions...

I have an anytime Korean router, was the cheapest I could find at yongsan for 25k I think. don't buy it is my advice because it's quite crappy, even though it has an antenna the signal isn't far reaching and it's quite unreliable with plenty of drop-outs.
