Reviews of the Trendnet TEW-633GR Wireless Router (draft n)

CNET Review
The Good: Supports all available wireless encryption methods; intuitive, feature-packed, responsive Web interface makes it easy to set up and manage your network connections; compact design; impressive throughput speeds at short range; three-year warranty.
The Bad: Wireless connection drops with TrendNet wireless adapter; disappointing long-range throughput.
