Hi,

I'm currently in the UK studying and want to build up a wireless network on a DSL connection. Seeing as I'll be back in the US next month to visit the family, it would be best that I buy gear since it's cheaper. Does anyone know of any compatability issues if I buy gear in the US and bring it back to London?

For example, I looked at SMC's 7004ABWR. The power supply is supposedly 110/220V (60/50Hz). Can anyone in the US confirm this? At the same time, SMC's website recommends that you buy gear in the respective country as there may be different standards in the European Commission.

Finally, quick question ... SMC 7004AWBR or Siemens Speedstream 2624, which would you choose and why?

Thanks for any help!
