Asus RT-N16


$90.00 Released September, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Capable of handling many connections all at once without conflicts. Maintains fast connections for all devices without dropping. USB ports have a wide range of applications, seem compatible with most storage devices.

The Cons:Doesn't use dual band technology even though the chipset supports it. Original firmware is buggy, needs an update right away.

The RT-N16 is a top-of-the-line 802.11n wireless router from Asus. It combines the RT-N13U's print-server capabilities, which allow all users on a network to use a multifunction printer connected to the router via USB, with the RT-N15's gigabit ethernet, which significantly increases transfer rates between computers on a local network.
