Networks Anyone tried the Sitecom 300N XR Gaming Router

http://www.sitecom.com/product.php?productname=Wireless+300N+XR+Gigabit+Gaming+Router&productcode=WL-308+&productid=680

See link for details, looks good to me. Scan have them in for just over £90 which is a bit more expensive than some 802.11N with gigabit LAN ports but not much and it claims to have some funky data prioritising stuff built in too.

Or can someone suggest something better?

 

eek sounds a bit like the "killer nic" i smell snake oil. Its usp seems to be an automatic qos but tbh i've never had a problem with lag at the router simply by setting p2p and similar programs to low priority.

 

We're getting one of these in because it sounds interesting... should be with us soon.

 

If it works effectlively could be amazing.

Bet its no better than a normal router though

 

Well I did buy the gaming router in the end. It looks good in glossy black and the gigabit LAN is fantasticly fast. So far draft n performance is a little disappointing, definately faster than g but not as much as I expected.

As for the gaming features it's tough to tell either way. So far it does seem to have a more consistantly low ping on the internet than my previous router. I'll get a much better feel for it when I next get the guys over for a LAN session.
