Just bought an emac for the wife - I have an imac. I want a real simple cable router that's easy to set up and requires little configuration etc (this kind of stuff is not my speciality). Can anyone recommend one? I wouldn't mind having wireless capability for further on down on the road as long as it doesn't increase the complexity of things. Many thanks.

I'd recommend this (http://www.woodbutcher.net/images/normstools/pc-7518.htm) one over the Makita.

Erp... he wanted a cordless router. The Porter-Cable 7518 is AC power only. Here (http://www.internationaltool.com/pccordlessrouter.htm) is a wireless router. :D

Ah, I'm not buying any router that doesn't have a 1/2" collet. All my bits are 1/2". Besides, you can't raise panels with 1/4" shank bits.

This thread's probably been hijacked enough though...
