Vizio XWR100
$100.00
Released September, 2010
The Pros:Uses several enhancements to optimize wireless video transmission - great for streaming services such as Netflix. Good value - costs about half the price of similarly featured routers. Looks nice - features a streamlined, minimalist aesthetic.
The Cons:Glossy finish - attracts fingerprints and dust. USB hard drive sharing is read only - there's no way to write to the network drive. Internal antennas only - there's no way to hook up an external Wi-Fi antenna.

It uses Vizio QoS (Quality of Sound) technology to produce superior high-definition streaming by intelligently prioritizing Internet traffic, thereby resulting in fewer delays, especially when watching HD movies. In particular, the 5GHz band is geared mainly for time-sensitive traffic, whereas the 2.4GHz band covers everything else. Additional features include a USB interface for accessing a USB hard drive, Wi-Fi Protected Setup, and both PC/Mac compatibility.
