Hi Folks,
Wee bit of close lightning last night and my Draytex Vigor2860 got fried - line side seems fine but the ethernet ports are dead.
As a temporay fix I've installed my reserve TP-Link TD-W9970
Looking for recommendations for a permanent solution.
I need 6 ethernet ports.
I don't need wi-fi on the router as I have BTWholehome.
BB is copper - real wet string stuff - no fibre upgrade expected for at least four years.
I'm a true amateur that fumbles his way around network things and once it's working I like to let it run smoothly.
Any lovely gurus with suggestions please.
Many thanks.
If it works, use it. In your situation changing the router isn’t going to do anything. Keep the money for a rainy day.
