router recommendation

Mon Dec 12, 2011 9:35 am

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a wireless router for Home usage, so I was wondering if you guys can recommend me something from Mikrotik/Routerboard (unfortunately I'm not familiar with Routerboard, yet).

The router I want should have:
- wireless 802.11n
- gigabit ports

Thank you in advance!

Kind of depends on what you expect to do with it, will you be using the FW? What connection do you have? The low end is the RB751U-2HnD thats a complete solution for you. On the other end, if your a techie and want hi-performance then and dont mind to spend a bit you can go with a RB800, a wifi card and a case.

There are also more devices being released this month, so if you want to wait then its a good option

Thank you for the reply.

Yes I can wait for new products if they are coming this month.

I'm not a teacher and I want to use it for home needs as I have a small network:
- 2 computers with Ethernet ports
- 1 laptop + 3 phones - using wifi connections
- 1 VOIP gateway - using ethernet port
- 1 xbox - ethernet port
- 1 media player - ethernet port
- 1 TV - ethernet port

With the new router I want to purchase I want to be able to stream Full HD content from LAN (computers, laptop or phones) to TV via DLNA without interruptions (via Ethernet or wifi if possible).

Also I want it to be capable to use it as a VPN gateway and ssh server from outside.

ISP connection is PPPOE at 100Mbps
