Overview

» Enlarge

The good:
  • Comes with two access points
  • Utilises 5GHz
  • Super-fast when used as a network hub
The bad:
  • What on earth is up with Netgear's naming conventions?
  • Wireless B/G need not apply
  • Ordinary 802.11n performance when used purely wirelessly
  • Monolithic access points
The bottomline:

They're big and quite ugly, but there's no doubting that Netgear's WNHDEB111 delivers in the 802.11n speed stakes — finally!

Editors’ rating:

9.3/10

RRP: AU$349.00
