The Bottom Line	The Buffalo WLA-G54C is the best wireless repeater we've seen to date, and it's a great building block for an expandable network.	The Buffalo WLA-G54C is the best wireless repeater we've seen to date, and it's a great building block for an expandable network.	This wireless bridge does a competent job at connecting Ethernet devices to a wireless network or extending a WLAN's range, but its price is high.	This access point's high price will seem fair to those with a lot of wireless equipment.	The DWP-2100AP is the fastest Wi-Fi access point we've tested, but its convoluted setup guide and manual mean networking newbies need not apply.
