Linksys WRT610N Review

Everyday Life No Responses »

Nov 092008

It has been a long time since I had to go out and purchase a new router. I looked at several different brands and models. I finally decided on the WRT610N from Linksys by Cisco. There are several features that stand out. One of them is the dual-n band network that supports both the 2.4 GHZ and 5GHZ bands. I also found the network attached storage to be a great feature. This allows you to directly attach a USB drive to the router so it acts like a network storage device. This feature alone helped justify the cost of the purchase compared to some of the other models like the 310N. I have had it up and running for a while now and it has not missed a beat. I push anywhere between eighty to ninety GB of data through it a day. The WRT670N has not had a single issue up to this point. In the next few weeks I will be posting more detail on some of the key additional features that are built into the WRT610N. I will also touch on some of the points where Cisco can improve on like connection stats.
