Router Without A Reason: Belkin N150 Wireless Router Reviewed

[cmyth]

Tim,

It's interesting that the Intel 5300 client performs significantly better (link versus no link) in locations E & F when in 11g mode versus 11n mode. Even if Intel has not implemented MRC or STBC, wouldn't they program the radio to fall back into an 11g mode at distance when actually running in 11n mode? Could it be that you've uncovered an Intel bug or could it be that the Ralink chip set does not support low 11n PHY rates?

Thanks for the great reviews.

Rate selection is a strange and wonderful thing, eh? I'll probably try some other draft 11n clients next time I look at a single-stream router.

Tim,

RT3052 NPU is 384MHz sharing the WNPU all-in-one idea, I know this same chip is in the new Buffalo N non gig routers.

"The N150 includes a Use as Access Point option,"

Hello, I'm using this product and I was trying to find this option but I've found only the "Modem only (Disable Internet Sharing)" option. So may you please tell me where is this option setting?

Thank you in advance.
