Reviewed on July 18, 2008The D-Link Xtreme N Duo Media Router DIR-855 is a stable performer with excellent Web interface. But because it comes in a bulky, old-school design, has a relatively short range, and carries a hefty price tag, consider waiting for the price to drop before investing in this router.TAGS:D-Link Systems, Linksys, router, organic light-emitting diode, WAN, light-emitting diode, LAN, USB port
Reviewed on May 3, 2006Though its maximum throughput is solid and its speed at long range is respectable, the Netgear WNR834B's mixed-mode speed is not. Save your cash until more Draft N routers make it through CNET Labs.TAGS:Netgear, throughput, antenna, IEEE 802.11n, router, WAN, LAN
Reviewed on March 18, 2008We like the Asus WL-500W for its wealth of unique features and its strong signal at long range, but its short-range throughput is substandard and there's no Gigabit Ethernet support. This is a good choice only for advanced users who will take advantage of some of router's USB features and aren't afraid to wade into those waters without help.TAGS:ASUS, Network Address Translation, router, FTP server, LAN, server, light-emitting diode, webcam, wireless router, function, USB, operating system
Reviewed on June 5, 2009The iBoss Home Parental Control Wireless-N router offers the most comprehensive tool to manage access to the Internet. Beyond that, it's a rather simple router that requires an annual subscription fee to operate, therefore holding appeal only for those who want complete control over a network's online activities.TAGS:router, wireless router, LAN
Reviewed on July 24, 2008The 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.TAGS:router, D-Link Systems, wireless router, Linksys, client, design, Wi-Fi, port, LAN, button, USB
Reviewed on December 16, 2007The TrendNet Wireless N Gigabit Router TEW-633GR is fast, but not as fast as a competing D-Link router, and it's easy to use, but not as easy as a Belkin router. Still, we like it for its winning combination of decent throughput and intuitive Web interface.TAGS:Wi-Fi, router, Gigabit Ethernet, networking, setup, LAN, Ethernet, CD, laptop computer
