My old Belkin router constantly had trouble with my NTL cable modem. For some reason the Belkin took ages in the morning to power up and correctly configure the network and start everything running. It often required rebooting several times. This Netgear was a breath of fresh air. It powered up immediately and sorted everything out itself. It has been an absolute model of consitancy and reliability. A thousand times better than the Belkin.
