The Bottom Line	The DI-624 is fast, and it combines easy installation with advanced security options, making it a good choice for homes and offices alike.	At a very affordable price, the D-Link Wireless N Router DIR-615 makes a great entry-level Wireless-N router and would satisfy most situations where a wireless network is needed.	The Belkin N+ Wireless Router is a great performer with excellent range and throughput speed. If its bulky design and lack of 5GHz frequency support don't put you off, the router is worth every penny of its $100 or so price tag.	The D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router is the fastest we've seen, but we're still reluctant to recommend it as it's based on an unfinished wireless spec.	With a little hunting for a good deal, you can get the faster version of this router, the DI-624, for the same price or less.
