Hi - sorry if I am in the wrong section of the forum, but actually I do have a Router problem, so I post it here:
I own a fairly new AVM FritzBox 7490 with the Fritz Repeater, but the bloody thing sucks (Wifi is bad and the box restarts itself about 10 times a day). I have talked with the AVM helpdesk and they say that they assume that the box is broken and they will replace it after I send it back to them to Germany. This will take about 3 weeks I suppose, but I do need my VOIP capability.
So - my idea is to buy something really useful and well-working (either Router with VOIP capability or Router plus seperate ATA) and to sell the new FritzBox as soon as it arrives. Would you have a suggestion what exactly to buy? I do have the following requirements:
a) Router with excellent Wifi strength and at least 4 x 1GB ports
b) Router may have an integrated cable modem (I am on Virgin Media Cable Broadband) - however, I don't know if that would work anyway, so it is not important
c) I currently use 4 SIP accounts (FreeVoipDeal, VoipBuster, Sipgate, and a local German Provider) and the British landline number from Virgin. The Fritzbox can switch automatically between these 5 accounts, depending on rules that I configured
Could you please recommend the right hardware for me?
Many thanks already in advance.
