Reviews of the Belkin N1 Vision

CNET Review
The Good: Embedded LCD offers loads of information at a glance; guest SSID and password let you share your Internet connection without compromising data or privacy; easy setup; configuration utility is newbie-friendly; Gigabit Ethernet ports; slick, attractive design.
The Bad: Slow throughput; very expensive.
The Bottom Line: The Belkin N1 Vision router makes great strides in user-friendliness, but drops the ball when it comes to performance.
