DG834 ADSL Router - Fantastic

By J.

Just purchased this ADSL modem from Dabs (ordered at weekend, arrived following Tuesday...excellent service as usual from Dabs). It must be as a result of the updated firmware the modem has, but it was an absolute doddle to set up, taking about 5 mins to have up and running perfectly.I put my computer together myself and this was by far the easiest bit of kit to get up and running. The DG834 is far superior in every respect to my previous old BT Voyager modem. My ping times to game servers are far less and more consistent; file download speeds are also increased and again more consistent. The firewall blocks everything that is thrown at it, including 100% from the full test at Gibson Research site. In summary this is excellent value for money, VERY easy to install and functions extremely well.....and yes, I am delighted with it.
