Reviews

  • Virgin Mobile Broadband WiFi modem

    This WiFi modem/router works well and provides great value on some plans, but we're still left wanting better performance out of Virgin Mobile's actual broadband.

  • Samsung NC10

    The NC10 betters previous Samsung netbooks with a built-in HSDPA SIM card reader and the portability this provides. Optus wireless broadband bundles seem like excellent value.

  • Optus E1762 USB Modem

    The hardware performs its part of the equation just fine, but if you're considering Optus' wireless broadband make sure you take advantage of its seven-day trial period.

  • Netgear EVA9150

    While the Netgear EVA9150 is far from perfect, it offers an easy way to access the widest array of digital audio, photo and video files for the do-it-yourself crowd.

  • NetComm NP201AV HomePlug

    NetComm's redesigned its home plugs to make them somewhat easier to fit onto a plug socket — and significantly faster as well.

  • Meridian Sooloos Music Server

    The Meridian Sooloos is a modular music server with an easy-to-use interface and one of the best Random modes we've seen. The downside? It's expensive.

  • Netgear Space-Saving Powerline Network Kit

    Netgear's Space-Saving Powerline Network Kit has some good ideas, some bad. On the performance front though, if you absolutely need homeplugs, we'd suggest spending more for the higher rated 200Mbps plugs.

  • 3 INQ1

    There's simply no better phone at this price. Fast web access, solid construction and fantastic social networking make this a must-see phone.

  • Optus Wireless Broadband: Now cheaper, sort of

    Optus is now offering its wireless broadband plans cheaper, but only for the first 12 months.
