Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station (Winter 2009)
Reviewed on March 16, 2009
The AirPort Extreme Base Station is a great wireless router for Mac or novice users who need something that's simple, nice-looking, and works well for their homes. Savvy Windows users will find many other alternatives that offer a lot more features for their bucks.

Linksys WRT160N
Reviewed on July 21, 2009
The Linksys WRT160N Wireless-N broadband router has consistent performance, good range, a helpful software application, and a good set of networking features. Its lack of Gigabit and USB support are the only major knocks against it.

TP-LINK TL-WR941ND Wireless N Router
Reviewed on July 24, 2008
The TP-Link TL-WR941ND Wireless N router is a simple wireless N router with a friendly price. If all you require is a basic network and you have a mix of 802.11N and b/g clients, it does the job for cheap.

Linksys WRT110 RangePlus Wireless Router
Reviewed on May 19, 2008
The Linksys WRT110 RangePlus is an unconventional and stylish wireless router that supplies near draft 802.11n throughput without being an official Draft N router. We like this affordable, antenna-free router for networks where Wireless-G and Wireless-N clients coexist.

Asante Smart HotSpot Wireless N Router AWRT-550N
Reviewed on June 14, 2010
The Asante Smart HotSpot Wireless N Router AWRT-550N could make a good investment for a public wireless hot-spot, but its log-in security is overkill for home or office use.
