TRENDnet TEW-631BRP
$128.00
Released July, 2006
The Pros:Excellent range, can be connected to from anywhere in the house. QoS works well enough that several computers can stream video at once. Allows you to set IPs statically or dynamically.
The Cons:Generates a lot of heat, need to keep it in a well ventilated area. Has a backlit "wireless router" sign on top that serves no purpose other than being distracting. There are several versions available so the firmware needs to be checked right away.
