Just bought one of those, it's pretty straight forward to set up I thought. Nice and small too.

Yup that'll do you just fine!

Netgear stuff's normally pretty straightforward to set up, actually most stuff nowadays is (anything that's not Linksys anyway - avoid that sh!t like the plague!)

My experience with netgear, is you need to judge firmware upgrades, I have had to downgrade my FVS338 as it was incapable of achieving full throughput with later firmware.

Are you sure we're not twins? we've got the same tv/tv stand and now we have the same router! Bought one of these a months or so ago, easy to set up it auto detects most things you just need to put in your username and password for your network provider.
