The AirStation N-Technology Wireless-N150 Router & Access Point from Buffalo allows you to share your broadband Internet connection among the computers in your home -- wirelessly. The router adheres to the 802.11n Wi-Fi standard, which supports data transfers of up to 150Mbps. It is also backwards compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g devices, and features four wired Ethernet ports for device connectivity.
Simply plug the router into your broadband modem and it will start sharing your connection. A web-based configuration utility allows you to password protect your Wi-Fi. The router is compatible with devices that are part of the Buffalo AOSS family and those that support WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) -- these can be securely connected to your wireless network via the push of a single button!
A built-in firewall and an intrusion detector work together to protect connected computers from attacks that can originate on the Internet. You can also configure the router to act as an access point in an existing Wi-Fi network -- this allows you to strategically place it in your home to eliminate a Wi-Fi dead spot or simply extend the physical coverage area.

Offers good security and speed in a small package. Needed to update firmware out of the box. Web based interface is pretty good. No mac support, but will work for you. We use it with two macs and one dell.

I'm using it to expand the area where I get WiFi @ our office. Configuring it was as easy as following the step by step setup process. For [$] this is a STEAL!!!

The software that comes with this will challenge even the most advanced user. This is a long, long way from "Plug & Play" However once set up, it works very well with excellent range. Quite a value when comparing with similar units. I used it to add an "N" band to my home network & extend the previously weak signal to my separate workshop about 50 feet from my house. Went from one to two bars & dropping signal on my Actiontec GT724WGR to a steady 4-5 bars. Pleased as punch at the price.

Comments about Buffalo AirStation N-Technology Wireless-N150 Router & Access Point:
Purchased to replace a very old Linksys Wireless B router and endpoints. This router, and the Buffalo clients underperformed -- extremely weak signal outside of the room in which it was installed. When uninstalling (to return unit) I found that the Buffalo software had removed some XP functions needed to reinstall the original router. That took effort to correct as well.
