Linksys

This week, for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we have a special router. It's the Linksys WRT1900ACS. In pink.

Linksys made only a limited number of the pink Wi-Fi routers, and this is your chance to get one for free.

CNET's Dong Ngo reviewed the $229.99 WRT1900ACS earlier this month and called it the best router available from Linksys. He gave it high marks for its fast Wi-Fi performance and long range and lauded its brisk network storage speed when hosting an external storage device. "Plus, the router boasts a cool retro stack-able design," he said.

Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death among women, according to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Each year it's estimated that over 220,000 women in the US will be diagnosed with breast cancer and more than 40,000 will die. National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a long-running annual international health campaign aimed at drawing attention to the disease and raising funds for research into causes, prevention, treatment and cures.
