Not everyone wants, or needs, a monster Wi-Fi router that costs $200-300 so it’s great to see that D-Link is bringing out devices like the EXO, that with AC1900 speeds should be plenty in many scenerios and still ahve that angry insect look (that I like) going on. First Router in EXO Series Offers Extreme Home Coverage at an […]

I think this is the only MU-MIMO AC1900 router I’ve seen so far. It’s certainly a unique product there, and at $200 it is consistent with other AC1900 802.11AC routers.

At $175 street ($209 SRP) this wireless router/bridge is $10-$20 cheaper than […]

Visiting the Linksys booth at CES we saw a very large Wireless AC Gigabit Router they were showing off called the WRT1900AC. They designed it to look like the old WRT54G router that was very popular when released back in 2002 due to its open architecture which sparked the modified router software evolution such as DD-WRT, Tomato, and others which […]
