Our test of five dual-band wireless extenders came up with a clear winner.
We found our first attempt at testing wireless extenders wasn't up to par. So we redesigned the test process and retested them all.
This article describes our test process for Wireless Extenders.
We took a look at the Y-Cam HomeMonitor and checked how it compared to Dropcam.
Updated - The EnGenius ESR1200 has an unusual shape and PPTP, IPsec and L2TP servers, but disappointing wireless range.
The Buffalo WZR-1750DHP has fast storage throughput and decent 2.4 GHz performance, but doesn't measure up on its 5 GHz side.
Updated - The Thecus N2560, based on Intel's lower-cost "Berryville" Atom, doesn't deliver the performance we've come to expect from an Atom NAS.
The Buffalo TeraStation 5200 comes at a very nice price, but a bit short on performance.
The Ubiquiti's UAP-LR is a decent, inexpensive access point. But only partially lives up to its "Long Range" moniker.
The Synology DiskStation DS713+ is a pricey two-bay high-performance NAS with room to grow.
Buffalo's Linkstation 420 NAS has pretty good performance. But is it three times faster than a "standard NAS" as Buffalo claims?
