Question wireless router for ntl broadband /set top box

please can any1 help me to decide what wireless router is best to get for our ntl broadband (works through set top box). 4mb.
I am no computer wiz, and the kids are driving me mad wanting to go on the net aswell.
i have a desktop pc, and the kids have laptops that are just sitting there waiting to be online. i got given a bt voyager 2091 - but am not stupid enough to try it - as it is probably a crazy thing to do as i am not computer literate. please help

Your BT router won't be any good - only works on ADSL connections, not NTL Cable.

I'm sitting behind a Linksys WRT54G - works a treat for me.

At that price i agree. Grab it while it's on offer. It's the same as the WRT54GS but without the speedbooster technology.
