- NETGEAR RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Router WNDR3300 - wireless router

It's a basic router with two separate access points AP, one of which supports Wireless-N and can operate in either 2.4GHz or...

- TP-LINK TL-WR941ND Wireless N Router
- The TP-Link TL-WR941ND Wireless N Router is a wireless router that supports the Draft N 2.0 specification and not much else. This means no network storage or dual-band support (the router works only in the 2.4GHz frequency), no print-serving capability, and no Gigabit Ethernet. The router doesn't even offer N-mode-only...

- D-Link Xtreme N Duo Media Router DIR-855 - wireless router
- We pitted the D-Link Xtreme N Duo Media Router DIR-855 against the only other true dual-band router we've reviewed, the Linksys WRT610N. The DIR-855 beat the WRT610N in overall throughput performance, but its design and desktop setup application couldn't compete. Both routers offer about the same range; the WRT610N provides...

Aside from its low cost per gigabyte, there's unfortunately little to recommend about this dual-drive Network Attached Storage NAS device. From the desktop application to the Web-based interface, the device is consistently confusing....

- 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...
