We tested ten routers from five manufacturers. We asked them to provide one more entry-level model, and one that is positioned as a high-end product. Considering how affordable routers are becoming, we chose to only include dual-band routers. We decid...

None of the routers in this test performed poorly, but there were enough differences that we can draw a few conclusions. If you don't want to spend too much but still want decent performance, then the best options are the Linksys EA2700, Netgear WNDR370...

With all the hype around 802.11ac it’s easy to forget that 802.11n is still the most prevalent Wi-Fi standard in use and can still deliver excellent value and speed. We’ve been mightily impressed by recent Netgear routers, especially the 802.11ac R6300...

Incredibly fast, stylish and packed with features, making it perfect for offices and media enthusiasts that don’t want to invest in a full 802.11ac setup...

It seems there is never a good time to buy a new piece of technology, but never has this been truer than with routers in mid-May 2012. For those not in the know late May will see the launch of a new wireless standard, 802.11ac , capable of speeds surpassi...

As the demands of multimedia streaming drive home users to search for better wireless performance, we are seeing more and more 450Mbps routers appear. These use a three-stream, (3 x 3) implementation of 802.11n. Each stream is capable of up to 72Mbps, usi...

We have been highly impressed with Netgear's routers of late, and the W4500 continues this trend. This dual band router supports Mbps connections as long as you have a compatible adapter, but even without this it delivers good, consistent speeds. We foun...
