Reviews

  • Edimax nLite 3G-6200n 3G Broadband Router

    Edimax's nLite 3G-capable router might sucker you in with a bargain price point, but you'll pay a hefty frustration price along the way.

  • Asus RT-N16 Wireless Router

    Asus' high-end wireless router has plenty of throughput grunt, but we do wish the company would offer better support documentation.

  • Asus RT-N13U Wireless N Router with All-In-One Printer Server

    Asus' inexpensive 802.11n router is a bit of a bargain, although it does also bring with it some bargain basement sensibilities.

  • Edimax nMax AR-7265Wn Wireless 802.11n ADSL2/2+ modem router

    System Mechanic 7 Professional goes beyond its original greatness, morphing a system utility suite into a kind of grand security suite. As such, it comes up short.

  • Linksys WAG325N

    Linksys' integrated ADSL2+ modem and Draft-N wireless router gets a lot of things right - including excellent signal propagation - but still doesn't live up to the Draft-N speed hype.
