Comments about ASUS RT-N66U Dual Band Wireless N900 Gigabit Router:
Have multiple network nodes at home (several wireless and a few wired) and aside from a boost in signal strength and speed/performance I have not had to reset it once since after it was installed / configured and have not even tryed any real tweeking on settings. What gives this a five star rating is that is has been so much more reliable from my previous hardware. I do business and home computing, alot online for both also xbox-live, netflix, smart phones wifi'd and a networked home phone land line. Thanks to B&H for quick delivery and the best price I was able to find.
