 Hello all,
I have been introduced to this forum by Pill Monster.  Don't know if you know him as that but he's helpful.

I have the above modem and some times it loses connection from the modem to the internet. In the past it has been measured at more than 40 degrees C on the outside of the case.
I don't need to replace it now, but it seems that it may be discontinued. It is about 5 years old.
I have been looking at other brands, but there are so many details  and specifications that I'm lost on what to get.

I definitely want a modem/router, but don't need wireless. (But wireless added is okay)
I'm hoping that, if I can't get another unit the same as the D-Link DSL-G604T Gen2, then you folks will help find one with the exact same features.

I have been looking at prices from 40 to 80 Aussie dollars, but don't understand their features. I am on ADSL2+ with TPG.

Hope this is enough info.
Regards from Cespenar.

I have a TP-Link TD-W8960N - it's fairly popular here, and pretty well priced at ~$100 or so.

If you really don't want wireless there's the TD-8840T at ~$60 (but a bit more difficult to find, and not as popular - I'd get the wireless version)

Move to New Zealand's best fibre broadband service (affiliate link). Note that to use Quic Broadband you must be comfortable with configuring your own router.

Thanks Kevin,
I just looked up TPG and they have NetComm NB304, or 304N.
Also on Ebay I found a D-Link DSL-2642B for $50 that looks almost the same as the DSL-604T. I wonder if it the same thing but a newer model?
I was also interested in TP-Link and Billion. What are they like?

Regards from Cespenar.

Oops! You already mentioned TP-Link. The 8840T is only $29 at PCCasegear.
