Yes, I am using a Buffalo router, and it works fantastic.
The one I am using is this: Buffalo WHR-G54S
Good luck with whatever you go with.

I think that we are the ones confused.
You have a Wireless ISP ??? I'm not sure what you need. |

Your hurricane 9000c is a DSL modem / router combo, so if you were to get a router-only device (like the buffalo router), you would need a separate DSL modem that has an ethernet interface (not a USB-only interface) |
