The N1 Vision ($119.99) makes different mistakes. Without question, this is an impressive-looking unit, with a svelte, upright orientation, three unobtrusive antennas affixed to the back, and a very slick LCD that shows WAN and LAN speeds, the number of attached devices, the speeds of those devices, recent usage traffic, and a clock. One can never...

Belkin has updated its N1 Vision router since we first saw it by adding an ADSL 2+ modem. Once you have the router in your hand, its easy enough to spot the extra port, but the biggest clue when youre shopping is the change in model code from F5D8232-...

It seems as if the tech industry is infected with a gloss-over-function disease. Vista looks better than it works; Leopard, too. And the makers of all three of the 802.11n routers I tested in this mini-roundup poured a good deal of effort into outward...
Looks cool. Very informative front-mount LCD display. Easy Web-based configuration. Guest SSID for home network protection.
2.4-GHz operation-only, resulting in slow throughput even in optimal Wi-Fi conditions. Expensive for a single-radio router.
This eye-pleasing draft-n home router has all the Internet sharing and security features youd expect, and a great diagnostic display. But its fairly expensive, and its lack of a 5-GHz radio makes it slower than the other routers in this roundup.
