Linksys WRT160N wireless router Black:
The official description of Linksys WRT160N wireless router Black as supplied by the manufacturer. For easy access to this data, refer to the "ProductDescription" block and the "LongDesc" tag in XML or the "Description" block and the "LongDesc" tag in JSON.

The Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Broadband Router is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect to the network without wires. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.

The Access Point built into the Router uses the very latest wireless networking technology: Wireless-N (draft 802.11n). By overlaying the signals of multiple radios, Wireless-N's "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections much farther than standard Wireless-G.

With Wireless-N, the farther away you are, the more speed advantage you get. It works great with standard Wireless-G and -B equipment, but when both ends of the wireless link are Wireless-N, the router can increase the throughput even more by using twice as much radio band, yielding speeds far faster than standard Wireless-G. But unlike other speed-enhanced technologies, Wireless-N can dynamically enable this double-speed mode for Wireless-N devices, while still connecting to other wireless devices at their respective fastest speeds. In congested areas, the "good neighbor" mode ensures that the Router checks for other wireless devices in the area before gobbling up the radio band.

To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encode all wireless transmissions with industrial-strength 256-bit encryption. It can serve as your network's DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, and supports VPN pass-through. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.

The incredible speed of Wireless-N makes it ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video, gaming, and Voice over IP telephony, and gives you plenty of headroom to run multiple media-intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no degradation in performance. With the Linksys Wireless-N Broadband Router at the center of your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player games, and run media-intensive applications at incredible speeds, without the hassle of stringing wires!

The WRT610N is a new Linksys Ultra RangePlus router, but it is also described as a Simultaneous Dual-N Band Wireless Router. The Linksys supports dual-band operation in much the same way as the Netgear WNDR3300; however, there is a crucial difference t...

Design and ease of use Similar to Linksys recent routers such as the WRT320N, the WRT400N and the WRT310N, the WRT160N sports an aesthetically pleasing sleek, flat, UFO-shaped chassis. The routers antennas are internal, allowing it to be more compact...
Good Compact, sleek design, Easytouse web interface, Offers a good set of networking features, Included software is very helpful for setting it up with both Macs and PCs...
Bad Doesnt support the faster gigabit standard for wired connection, No USB support...
Bottom line The Linksys WRT160N Wireless-N broadband router has consistent performance, good range, a helpful software application, and a good set of networking features. Its lack of gigabit and USB support are the only major knocks against it.

Linksys might say the focus of this router is on range, but its not too shabby when it comes to speed, either. Its an 802.11 draft-n-based wireless router, which is easy to set-up and it looks great.

Youd be hard-pressed to find a true draft-n router for less than you can buy the Linksys Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Router (WRT160N). Linksyss own RangePlus Wireless Router (WRT110) may be $20 cheaper on the mean streets of Techtown, but its not a...
Good Good price. Supports WPS. Good Web-based management interface.
Bad Somewhat slow even for a 2.4-GHz-only router. Buggy installation routine. No support for 5-GHz band. No Gigabit Ethernet or USB connections.
Bottom line Thanks to a great price for a true draft-n router, the Linksys WRT160N is a good choice, as long as your home networking needs arent too advanced...

Bottom line The Linksys WRT160N certainly doesn’t look like a budget router. Its sleek new design—a black clamshell with no exterior antennas—should fit in nicely with your home decor and doesn’t look as geeky as previous Linksys models. Setup...
