This review is from: Tenda W268R Wireless-N Broadband Router with 4-port Switch #287052 (Electronics)

I just picked up this router at a local store here for $19.99. The price absolutely cannot be beat. Installation was as easy as any other wireless router I've owned. Was up and running within 5 minutes. The main reason I purchased this was my Magnavox Blu-Ray player is wireless capable, but my Linksys G router was not fast enough to keep up with the streaming of video.
As soon as I tried this router, all the buffering problems went away!
Video is clear and buffer-free, even running HD video. So far so good!
My laptops all connect to it with no problems, and the signal is clear and strong throughout the house.

As a computer repairman for over ten years, I'm quite knowledgable when it comes to routers. I have used most of them. However I was happily surprised to see that this Tenda wireless router is preforming above expectations, It was inexpensive and I love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tenda (Not a Game) W268R Wireless N Router...Sweet!, April 25, 2011

Received my Tenda W268R Router fast enough, set-up a few days later and am pleased my unit appears factory new and is working as expected. This was an impulse buy so, I took the time to read everything and set-up was a breeze. It's not necessary to use the set-up CD...if you know your settings for the router firmware, enter them and you're up and running quickly, smoothly and securely.

The most noticeable difference (from my WRT54GL router) is the speed...doubled, nearly tripled! Transmission range isn't as broad as I had hoped but, still, a considerable increase. Otherwise, better security.

Okay, Sweet! That says it all for this low-cost router. Since it's only been a few days running now, my only concern may be longevity. I expect trouble-free performance and I'm hoping for 5-10 years of reliable service from this Tenda router. So far, overall, I am very pleased...this has been an outstanding purchase!
