The coveted CNET Editors’ Choice award recognizes outstanding consumer electronics that represent the best available choice for quality, performance, design, service, value, and its logo is a mark of excellence denoting the best possible investment for consumers.
CNET Editors’ Choice winners are recognized as top products in their respective technology categories, and contribute to the standard by which all future products are judged. A key selection requirement is that it must also change the competitive landscape of its market, whether through innovative features, exceptional value for the price, remarkable ease of use, or a demonstrable boost to the lives of its users.
The SMC Barricade N Wireless Gigabit Broadband Router (SMCWGBR14-N) is a 4-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit LAN switch with built-in wireless ‘N’ access point, intelligent stream handling technology, a multi-function print server and a user friendly Web-based management interface in one convenient, easy to install device. Ideal for handling demanding applications like streaming media content and transferring large files, the SMCWGBR14-N connects to xDSL for Internet access and to any networkable 10, 100 or 1000Mbps device or any 802.11b, g or n device for LAN and shared WAN access.
