Sorry, mate, something else was making me grumpy at the time!
Pipex does have a good write up, but in fact ADSLGuide always places Eclipse ahead of it, and everyone I have pushed towards them has always been happy.
Regarding not wanting to spend the money, the Draytek is a very good bit of kit, and what you get for, what, £150? is pretty amazing.
If someone had asked us 5 years ago what a combined 100Mb Ethernet router, Hardware Firewall, VPN, ADSL modem and WiFi access point would cost in 5 years' time, we would have guessed £5000 or more.
Anyway, you pays yer money and takes yer choice. £100 for a non AOL WiFi router or £150 for one that allows AOL.
