The Bottom Line	The WGR614 is a good choice for those unfazed by the bleeding-edge nature of 802.11g.	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 Netgear RangeMax router is among the best-performing routers we've seen.
