    November 19, 2002

    The Good: Detachable wireless antenna; attractive design; includes vertical stand; 24/7 phone support; inexpensive.

    The Bad: So-so performance; no wall-mounting hardware.

    The Bottom Line: The extremely affordable MR814 gives families with limited networking experience an easy way to build a wireless home network.
