Hi All,
I'm on the lookout for a new router to team up with my Sky Hub SR102 as I'm just not happy with the wifi range of the hub and the fact it only handles 2.4Ghz. The plan is to set my Sky Hub in the DMZ and forward all traffic towards my new router. The New router will then handle all queries, DHCP, Firewall and Wi-Fi etc on a different LAN to the Sky Hub.
Internet > LAN1 (Sky Hub - 192.168.0.x) > WAN (New Router - 192.168.0.254) > LAN 2 (New Router - 192.168.1.x)
Does anybody have any reconmendations on a decent router priced about £50 GBP? It must have Wireless N and also be Dual Band 5Ghz. Gigabit is not a requirement as all my other devices are hooked up to an unmanaged swtich but if it's got gigabit then thats a bonus.
I have got my eye on D-Link DIR 842 AC1200 which I think would do the job. Internet is 76/20
Thanks in advance.
