For those looking for a cheap wireless N router + Print & FTP Server, this is an excellent buy!
I bought this router specifically with hope that it 'might' be able to do more than what it claims on the box, and it does, to some extent. Read on and you'll find answers to your questions that any other reviews on the web aren't able to tell you.
1. Can a USB hub be used to connect multiple peripherals to the router?
A. Yes, but with certain limitations. I have successfully connected a printer and a hard drive to the router via a usb hub, and both work flawlessly! Here's what you do: plug in the usb hub to the router, then connect the hdd to the usb hub, set up your ftp server on the hdd, then connect the printer to the usb hub, and set up your printer. You will only see the printer show up in the router's main page, but the ftp serve works fine. However, hooking up 2 printers will not work because the print command is directed ip-to-ip (your pc to the router)...Read more

This review is from: ASUS RT-N13U Wireless-N Router, Access Point, and Repeater (Personal Computers)
I had no issues adding it to my home WLAN. Once configured, it has worked flawlessly. The instructions were easy to follow. I have 4 computers (all different brands, three XP and one Vista) on the network sharing this printer. Range has been excellant - the access point is located on the second floor and this print server is stored in the basement. Compatiblity has been excellant with the other manufacturers equipment (D-link and Netgear) in my network - no problems. True Asus is not as well known for WIFI equipment but does have an excellant track record in motherboards and netbooks. The product allows me to add a future remote NAS - in the basement.

A good value for money router. I have been shopping around for an wireless router for some time. Best Buy, Walmart, Office Depot. I wanted the latest (Any N Wireless) at an affordable price. Most of the N -routers from Linksys, Belkin, Netgear were priced at $60 (not including tax).
I live in an 1200 sq.ft apartment and the wireless router gives excellent connectivity in every nook and corner of the apartment. Its been an week and as yet, it has not given me any problems. There is continous connectivity (no droppping of connectivity in between). The videos from youtube are as clear over wireless connection as when I used to connect through ethernet cable. There are no pixelation. The RT-N13U is rated as 300 mbps and I guess it is as good as its rating.
Asus is not as well known as Linksys, Netgear and Belkin, but I was prepared to take an $50 risk (thats the price of this router) which is about $10 less than other wireless N router and in addition get an...Read more
