TP-Link TL-WDR3600 and WDR4300 review
|
 TP-Link has created two virtually identical routers with the TL-WDR3600 and TL-WDR4300. With an average price of £62 the WDR3600 is a good option if you're looking for a reasonably-priced dual-band router with gigabit ports and can live with the design. The performance of the WDR3600 is very good, especially considering the price.

NETGEAR R6300 Gigabit Wi-Fi Router @ Benchmark Reviews
|
|
Next generation wireless routers are now firmly in the marketplace, and Benchmark Reviews has had the opportunity to take a closer look at one of NETGEAR 's current flagship routers, which is the NETGEAR R6300 Gigabit Wi-Fi Router. Having Broadcom's 5G Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11ac chips on-board, The R6300 is capable of delivering speeds of up to 1300Mbps when connected to other 802.11ac devices, and speeds of up to 450Mbps when connected to 802.11n devices. Some have suggested that it has, "a face that only a mother could love," but, personal preferences aside, the design of the R6300 is not indicative of this router's performance and capability. It is packed with great features, such as READYshare, that are designed to address your personal and professional wireless needs. Whether you want to stream HD video, sit down for an extended gaming session, or even do a number of tasks simultaneously, the NETGEAR R6300 can handle it.

D-Link DIR-865L review: another flagship router?
|
|
D-Link really has gotten a feel for it this year. We've seen one new product after the other. Earlier we got the flagship model from their standard line of routers called the DIR-857, and now it's apparently time for the 802.11ac router, the DIR-865L. Also known as the Wireless AC 1750 Dual Band Cloud Router, this can be seen as the second D-Link flagship model of this year.

Linksys EA6500 review: 802.11ac in the cloud
|
|
The number of 802.11ac routers is steadily increasing. The latest one we got our hands on comes from Cisco, in the form of the Linksys EA6500. It's supposed to become the new router for the consumer market. Hardware.Info tested the EA6500 to find out whether the performance and features warrant those dreams.

Amped Wireless R20000G Router and UA2000 Adapter Review
|
|
Im happy I was able to get my hands on the Amped Wireless gear and tinker with it for a while. It`s nice to see someone other than the normal players producing hardware. Neither the R20000G router or the US2000 adapter are bad pieces of hardware, theyre just overpriced. While I love rooting for the underdog, Amped Wireless has to meet or beat the other vendors on price, performance and functionality."

Apple iPad Mini (Wi-Fi) Review @ TechReviewSource.com
|
|
How much are apps worth to you? How about $120? If you want those iPad-exclusive apps and price is no object, then no other small-screen tablet will do. Beautifully made, slim, and light, the iPad mini packs precisely the power of an iPad 2 into a tablet you`ll actually want to carry around."

QNAP TS-869 Pro 8-Bay NAS Review
|
|
When QNAP went high-end last year with 10GbE capability, they left an opening for lower cost units designed for true small office environments. The x69 Series fills that gap while still offering high drive count NAS products, but reduces some of the enterprise features only used in large office environments."

3-in-1 RJ45 Network / RJ11 and USB Cable Tester Review
|
|
"If you’re a tech enthusiast, chances are you’ve got a cable tester of one kind or another in your tool box. A cable tester isn’t something that average user needs all of the time, I have a need for one maybe twice per year but it’s nice to have one when you need it. For review today I’ve got the 3-in-1 RJ45 Network / RJ11 and USB Cable Tester, yes this tester can not only test phone and Ethernet cables but also USB cables which I thought was kind of interesting. This tester is from Deal Extreme, who is known for very low prices, and it costs under ten dollars. Is it worth it? Yes I think so, that is if you don’t plan on using for professional uses as it’s not exactly the best quality when it comes to construction. For under ten dollars though we really can’t expect much though right? I’ve tested it and does work as it should, for the average person this is an inexpensive product that will do the job it’s needed for. "

Synology DS413 and DS413j
|
|
Although the Synology DS413j is not intended to compete with high-end Atom driven products like the QNAP TS-269L, we feel it makes a very compelling argument in this particular comparison. Overall there isn’t a great deal separating the two in terms of performance and it is not unless you look at upload performance exclusively that the TS-269L looks like the obvious option.

Amped Wireless R20000G High Power Dual Band Router Review @ Legit Reviews
|
|
After using the Amped Wireless R20000G for a couple of weeks, one of the things we noticed is that the R20000G does have quite the amplifier built in to the unit. Our wireless tests showed that the Amped Wireless Router wasnt the fastest in our battery of speed tests, but we did observe a pretty robust range of use. Amped Wireless markets the R20000G Router as a WiFi device that has tremendous range and power. While this doesnt necessarily equal speed, the range that a router performs is very important for many users..."

[Tech ARP] The Thomson / Technicolor TG784n Port Forwarding Guide
|
|
Port forwarding is important if you have applications or games that require an unobstructed connection from a computer on your local network to a remote service or server. What it basically does is open a port in your firewall and direct all traffic that is sent to that port to a specific computer on your network. Think of it as opening a secret entrance in your city wall and then routing all traffic that goes through it to a specific house. If you do not set up port forwarding for your application, it may not be able to connect to the service or you may have to live with reduced performance. This port forwarding guide is for those who are using the *older Thomson TG784n* router, or the *newer Technicolor TG784n v3* router. Although the example uses the latest Technicolor TG784n v3 router, the steps are the same for the older Thomson TG784n router. Let`s get right down to it!"

ASUS RT-N66U USB-N66 USB-N53 Router and Adapter Roundup
|
|
All in all, the ASUS RT-N66U is an excellent router with a full feature set thats definitely worth a look. Im seriously thinking of swapping out my beloved Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 with Tomato firmware in a second for this router. The only caveat being you shouldnt be surprised when you dont get the Wi-Fi speeds that are advertised."
