There's been some discussion in another place about these offers, and several people were less than impressed. They pointed out that P&P is £10, which is much more than the true cost, and there seemed to be suggestions that they are refurbished units, not brand new ones. I don't know whether this is true.

Eric,
I got my Netgear WG111T from them at about £5 plus £5 p&p which is much less than a lot of places on Tinternet.

£26.66 http://www.microdirect.co.uk/ProductInfo.aspx?ProductID=8793&source=googleps

I had to download the drivers, which is not a problem, as you are on tinternet to order it.

This is the last one I got for p+p of £9

Oh yes, I've no doubt that even with £10 P&P they are still a bargain so long as it's good equipment.

Hi Eric,
I think for anyone who wants to try a different router from the one supplied by ISP to see if it will improve their net connection etc it is a bargain.
The one I got comes, new with the plugin power adaptor too, so no problems with bits missing and it was an heads up for anyone to try out some thing different for very little outlay.
