- Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router
- The Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router is basically the Draft N 2.0 version of the RangePlus WRT110 that we reviewed earlier this month. Bearing the same sleek, antenna-free design as the WRT110, the WRT310N offers two significant upgrades: Gigabit networking and Draft N 2.0 compliance. We are a little disappointed...

- Linksys WRT110 RangePlus Wireless Router
- The Linksys RangePlus Wireless WRT110 is not a Draft N router, but Linksys doesn't call it a Wireless-G router, either. The reason? It works with both specifications. It supports the 802.11g standard, but the company's RangePlus technology takes advantage of the throughput threshold of the draft 802.11n specification and offers...

- Gallery: Installing a WiFi draft-n card in the Psystar
- As I've mentioned before, one of things that I should have ordered with my Psystar Open Computer was a WiFi card. For the low price of US$399 the Open Computer doesn't come with WiFi and my office is on the other side of the building from my cable modem –...

- Uncertainty stalls sales of Draft-N Wi-Fi routers
- Wireless networking vendors have been telling me for months that the 802.11n standard, although unratified, is so almost-done that any changes in the final spec could be added to Draft-N devices via a firmware upgrade. Apparently they're talking to the wrong people. A...

- How much performance gain can you expect from a Draft-N router?
- I've been using the same Linksys WRT54GS 802.11g router for a couple of years now, and it has reliably met my home networking needs. That includes connecting two laptops and a desktop, sharing a broadband connection, backing up files across the network, and shuffling video from my network-attached storage NAS...

- An easy (and cheap) way to upgrade your 802.11g router to Draft N
- Looking for an inexpensive and easy way to move up to 802.11n Wi-Fi throughput? Trendnet has just launched a product that transforms your 802.11g router into the higher-speed Draft N device. The $63.99 300Mbps Wireless Easy-N-Upgrader (TEW-637AP) also works with 802.11b wireless and wired routers. To...

D-Link did not immediately have pricing on the router, but it looks like it's going to be costly: Several...

- Trendnet TEW-633GR Wireless Router (draft n)
- Last year, when we reviewed TrendNet's first Draft N router, the TEW-631BRP, we came away wishing it was based on a finalized Wi-Fi specification. Now our wish remains with TrendNet's latest, the Wireless N Gigabit Router TEW-633GR, as the Draft 802.11N standard isn't expected to be finalized until late in...

- D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router
- The D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router is one of the latest Draft N routers to the market. Believe us when we say it packs a punch. It's by far the fastest 802.11n router we've tested. At $180, it's also one of the most expensive. We've been reluctant to recommend...

- Linksys WRT150N Wireless-N Home Router
- The Linksys WRT150N Wireless-N Home Router goes against the grain of new routers providing faster throughput, and for good reason. Linksys designed this router for those home users who want improved range over standard 802.11g routers, but don't want to pony up the cash for one of the new Draft...

- Trendnet Wireless N-Draft Router
- Late to the Draft N game, but in the game nonetheless, is Trendnet, with its TEW-631BRP N-Draft Wireless Router. Like the rest of the Draft N routers from vendors such as D-Link and Linksys, the TEW-631BRP is based on Draft N of the yet-to-be-ratified 802.11n spec. While its performance was...

- Buyer beware - ASUS "future proof" draft n-based hardware
- The 802.11n WiFi standard is a long way off being ratified ("sometime" in 2008 is the best guesstimate at present), but this hasnt stopped manufacturers from cashing in on it by releasing hardware based on draft 802.11n specifications. ASUS has taken this a step further by offering purchasers of...

- The Buffalo AirStation Nfiniti Wireless router and access point is the last of the Draft N routers to cross our desks. Like the rest of the vendors, Buffalo promises throughput that's five times faster than that of 802.11g, but like the other Draft N routers we've tested, the Nfiniti router...

- The D-Link DWA-645 RangeBooster N 650 Notebook Adapter is the companion card to the DIR-635 draft N router. The pair performed fairly well against its draft N competition but is still a way off from fulfilling the promise of 802.11n. At $99, the adapter is priced on a par with...
