Shiny, Pretty: The Rolls Royce of Routers

July 11, 2007 by Dan in Gadgets with 4 Comments

This has to be the fanciest non professional router I have ever seen. This thing has speedometers, meters, readouts, clocks, the bells and whistles go on. Besides the information overload, the Belkin N1 Vision MIMO router also lets you set up a Guest SSID, with different security setting then your main network to keeps snoops at bay. Hopefully all the eye candy will not impede the routers performance, and will be significantly more responsive then the companies other offerings.

Available in late July for $199.

looks pretty cool.. belkins routers aren’t normally any good? Never used them so I wouldn’t know. I’m a sucker for bells and whistles though so I might look into this.

Makes sense…since I already have the Porsche of hard drives:

Wow, that is sexy. Smart move to differentiate in a commodity market. But for close to $200, I’d rather have the USB jack on the Airport Extreme N.
