- D-Link Wireless N Router DIR-615 - wireless router
- The D-Link Wireless N Router DIR-615 eliminates any excuse you might have to not move to Wireless-N (300Mbps speed cap). With a price of about $40, the router is cheaper than even some Wireless-G routers--which cap at 54mbps--such as the Linksys WRT110. And you'll get a lot for the price....

- Not all cheap wireless routers are created equal
- The NETGEAR WNDR3300 is only $20 more retail than the next model down, the WNR2000. It would seem there wouldn't be a huge difference between these two Wireless-N SOHO units, but there is. Anyone familiar with this column knows that some of my...

- Belkin N+ Wireless Router
- Without a fancy name, the Belkin N+ impressed us where it matters the most: range and throughput performance. As a bonus, it also offers a limited network-storage function. We were only disappointed that it doesn't offer dual-band support, like the DIR-855 or the Linksys WRT610N. The N+'s performance, however, more...

- NETGEAR RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Router WNDR3300 - wireless router
- The Netgear RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Router WNDR3300 features a rather misleading name. The router doesn't support true dual-band wireless-N, nor does it offer very good range. 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...

- 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...

- 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...
