For a device to utilize the radio spectrum in the United States, the FCC requires hardware manufacturers to apply for the relevant license. These publically-accessible applications typically include manuals, specifications, and photos of internal hardware; from this information the capabilities/performance of a particular device can be estimated weeks before the product reaches retail.
For February 1st-28th:
"D Link Corporation"
DWA-652 Rev A3 PCMCIA Adapter. Atheros chipset (AR92?? visible). Probably AR9223 radio (2.4 GHz 11n 2T2R, despite the presence of 3 PCB antennas)
DAP-1360 Rev A1 Access Point. Realtek RTL8651C 280 MHz CPU. It appears to pair two 2.4 GHz 11n 1T2R RTL8256 radios with a single RTL8190 Baseband/MAC, which is an interesting implementation. Two removable 5 dBi antennas.
DAP-3520 Rev A1 Access Point. Dual band, single radio (AR9104+AR9132). 2T2R design w/ both internal antennas and external ports. NEMA enclosure with heater. 64 MB RAM/ 16 MB Flash. POE.
"Cisco-Linksys LLC"
No filings.
"Netgear Incorporated"
WNR1000 Router. Of the major components, only the Atheros AR9102 radio (11n 2.4 GHz 2T2R) is visible. From that, it can be inferred that the CPU is a 400 MHz AR9130. Switch is Fast Ethernet, likely the AR8216. 4 MB of Flash.
WNAP210 Access Point. Photos not very helpful. 11n 2.4 GHz Atheros radio and Gigabit PHY. 32 MB of RAM.
WG103 ProSafe 11g Access Point. 1 removable antenna.
"TRENDware International Inc."
TEW-638APB Access Point. Ralink RT3052F Integrated CPU/Radio/Fast Ethernet Switch (2.4 GHz 11n 2T2R), 32 MB RAM, 4 MB Flash, and two removable antennas.
TEW-670APB Dual band, single radio.
"Belkin International, Inc."
F6D4050 v1 USB Adapter. Ralink 3070L radio (2.4 GHz 11n 1T1R).
F5D8235-4 v2 N+ Wireless Router. Realtek RTL8366RB gigabit switch and Ralink RT3052F Integrated CPU/Switch/Radio.
The WiFi Alliance certified the D-Link DIR-685 802.11 B/G/N Wireless Storage Router.
