I'm a big fan of the Billion 7800DXL. It has superb, fast and stable ADSL perfomance, and four gigabit ports, one of which is a EWAN port, so it can be used as a router only, with a separate modem. Its wireless spec meets your requirements, but I can't comment on the range, except to say that it easily covers my house and garden (averageish 3-bedroom semi).

The 7800DXL isn't VDSL2 capable (although it does have a VDSL2 capable DSL chip, so VDSL2 may be possible later with a firmware upgrade).

oops  :-[  Thanks for pointing that out. 

Not much use to me then.  I saw VDSL2 but didnt really look too far as it was just above my price range.   I should have remembered from earlier investigations  :blush:

Still have a soft spot for original 2wire with the v4 firmware.
{Very hard to come across these days as most have had the auto firmware up grade}.

The Netgear GT is another old favourite & used ones can be found quite cheaply these days.
