"... It is priced higher than basic Wireless-G routers, quite possibly to extract mileage from its Wireless-N network support. However, routers that score far higher on the specifications front have been dropping in price and you should probably pick one of those instead. That then, only leaves small businesses ... as the audience for this router."

"... We saw speeds of 42.7Mbit/s at 1m, 31.9Mbit/s at 10m and a mere 5.1Mbit/s at 20 using a Centrino 2 laptop. Zyxel's own NWD-271N wireless adaptor (£23 inc VAT) gave us results of 60.8Mbit/s at 1m, 51.5Mbit/s at 10m and a slightly improved 10.9Mbit/s at 20m. ... This budget router does everything it's supposed to, but others do the same job faster and cheaper."
