I have used a Netgear DG834G router the past few years and have had a new Huawei HG523a router sent out by Talktalk as i renewed my contract with them. Im a bit nervous setting the new router up with my SB 6000 receiver, is it really simple and can be done in 20 mins as they say, have i any settings to put into laptop or receiver or is it all automatic?
I suppose in theory a talktalk router should work better than a Netgear router for stability?
help much appreciated
thanks, Chopper.

It`s Plug and Play. No setup needed. Just plug it in and use the new network key (password) printed on the back of the router in your spiderbox and other connected devices. If using LAN cable just plug it in both ends (router->Spider and you wont even need to enter anything into spider)
