There are also other brands to consider:
- Belkin
New player to the network market I believe. But their 3rd-party peripherials are first class. I believe its a lifetime-warranty for their routers the last time I'd asked a couple of shops in SLS. Ask again to confirm. Their main office is in Suntec.
- Cisco
If u strike Toto, u can buy it. But they make excellent network stuff. BTW, Cisco had bought over Linksys so technically, Linksys routers ARE Cisco routers. But Linksys routers are usually targeted for consumer market and Cisco routers are targeted for networking professionals and companies. U know what it means dude.
- Buffalo
So far frm wad I know, only 2 shops in SLS carry this brand. Not many ppl know of Buffalo in Singapore. MediaPro on Level 5 and another shop on Level 3 right beside the VCD shop. Juz got this router to replace my ol' Netgear. No protruding antenna. Wireless range quite ok. Features a lot of security stuff packet shaping, IDS, MAC Filtering and u can even adjust the power of ur wireless antenna via software! 2yr warranty.
