    Hi there!

    My old router is now starting to cut out intermittently and has come to end of its life. I have decided on this router, but want to check that it will be compatible with my current setup.

    Old router:

    DG834G - Wireless-G Router with Built-in DSL Modem

    New router:

    WIRELESS-N SERIES ROUTERS – DGN2000

    If I buy this new router, are you sure it will be compatible? As I don't want to waste ~£60 on a router if it doesn't work. BTW I live in the UK.

    Thanks!

    Benjamin

    No reason to expect there would be any problems- at least not because it lacks support for any DSL standards that the old one had.
    Just remember to go with Annex A (that you apparently had) not the Annex B.
