Hi everyone,
	I'm wondering if anyone has thoughts on Wireless N routers? There  
seems to be no consensus on which ones are actually capable of  
delivering good performance. Some folks say the Linksys wrt610n is at  
the top, some people say it is hardly usable. Others claim Apple's  
Airport Extreme offers the best performance, while others again put it  
at the very bottom. So it goes.

	It seems like concurrent/simultaneous dual-band (which of those terms  
you use seems to vary by brand) should be faster, but many reports  
seem to peg the 2.4 GHz models as working better. The most  
consistently well rated unit is the D-Link DIR-655, although some  
people also reported it as extremely warm in operation.

	Thoughts?

	Thanks,
		Tim
