Wow - that's so cheap I think I might get one to try it out!

It could make a good spare.

I have just been told that it got a bad review on Amazon.

Fredbargate

There has only been one review of this router on Amazon.

The person who submitted the review has also submitted one other review

http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-revi...0&pageNumber=2

and again a bad review , this time on a product that has mixed reviews from other people.

However www.appinformatica.com have a whole range of wifi routers at varying prices, and shops in most areas including Conil..

The router that you linked to is not the same router.

The GetNet router has not been reviewed at Amazon.

If you Google "GetNet GR-534W WLAN 150Mbps 4-Port DSL Router" you will get a load of hits so it is obviously pretty well known.

It does seem an amazing price.

Hi Fred

I believe the router I linked to at APP was GA-324WA / GA-324WB

http://www.getnet.eu/products_GA-324WA.B.html

Unfortunately the APP site is down at the moment so I cannot double check.

This router has one review at Amazon

http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-revi...DateDescending

The Amazon link in my previous post was to a Linksys router that was reviewed by the same reviewer, I was trying to point out that this person has made two negative reviews one of which received mixed reviews from other people

Yes Fred, I have found that review. As you pointed out, the review might just be one from a negative reviewer - there always seen to be plenty of those on Amazon.

I think the confusion is that Amazon have 2 different models which look exactly the same - the one without a review is the 534 model not the 524 that APP offer.

I guess that if it was as bad as the review suggests it could always be taken back.

As I said earlier often the most important feature of a router is it's ease of setup, especially for the less experienced user. That is the attraction of the Telefonica products.

For only €18.30 I would certainly give it a try if I was in need of one.

I live in Sotogrande and we are having terrible problems with slow telefonica ADSL (past 10days) and Telefonica tech support say its the whole of andalucia. My Spanish is rubbish so dont know what the actual problem is or when they hope to fix it. Anyone have the same problems or know more info on what is actually the problem. Very difficult to get any work done at these speeds.

On another note if you need to call telefonica call 1004 and ask for English language and they will patch you through to and english speaker. Although tech support for ADSL wont be one of them.

Appreciate any help.

Fred James

That is excuse number 43b in the Telefonica book of excuses.

I am in Andalucia and my connection is running slightly faster than usual.

lynnxa

so it's all your fault

jdr

Yeah, mine is slower too.

Fred James

OK - I'll turn my router off and you can all get back to normal!
