I'm going to get broadband shortly, and since me and the missus only use laptops at home, I want to get a wireless broadband router.

Anyone got any experience of these devices?

What wireless speed do they work at?

Do they include firewalls?

Which ISPs suport this config
I'm favouring Pipex at the minute, but I'm also considering Demon.
NTL are out. BT seems more expensive.
Tiscali/Virgin?

Any suggestions/comments appreciated.

Thanks mj - I should have tried looking a bit harder first!

That website you posted seems to have everything - very useful.
