Linksys WRT160NL Pro Reviews

On the whole, the Linksys WRT160NL Wireless Router is a good product with Wireless-N, detachable antennae, USB and third-party firmware support. The lack of Gigabit LAN ports may not make a practical difference for a lot of laptop users, yet this relatively slower speed of the wired switch will remain a sore point with desktop PC users. Although the limitations of wireless technology may not actually provide a throughput as high as the number suggests, the support of 300 Mbps WiFi-N and 100 Mbps wired connection which leads to wireless being faster at least in theory, does strike one as being quite bizarre in the year 2010. Plain Wireless-G plus 100 Mbps router models can be found at nearly a quarter of the price of the Linksys WRT160NL, but those won’t give you the extras provided by this Linux-based router, so you’d have to weigh your requirements before deciding to buy this one.
