To test this router we set-up a simple network in our house, which used a standard ISP provided Virgin Media Router as a modem. We then plugged in both the ASUS RT-N66U and our Buffalo AirStation Nfiniti Dual Band Wireless Router (WZR-HP-AG300H). This all...

It was clear after opening up the box that the ASUS RT-N66U was not going to be the average router. Judging from the clean styling and thought that went into the design with the large removable antennas, ASUS created an enthusiast router but is able to ...

The N900 is a strong wireless performer, but it's hard to recommend at its current price point because it has such a limited feature set. The Asus RT-N66U is much more powerful, has many more features, and it costs less....
