Hi guys,

Well I am looking for a new modem to replace the stock router that I am supplied with by my ISP (Be Broadband). Be Broadband uses ADSL2+ to achieve 24mb speeds, but I am only currently getting 10,041kbps download and 1,157kbps upload. So would there be any need for a ADSL2+ modem? Or would an ADSL modem be fast enough to supply my current speeds?

I don't really have a price range for a new modem, but I will only require a modem and not a router. This is because I use a gigabit switch to network. If I was to get an ethernet modem, I would then require a wireless access point.

The access point that I need should be 802.11 n/n-draft/a/g/b.

What is the best equiptment for this?

Thanks guys
