VIZIO XWR100 Dual-Band HD Wireless Internet Router

As Vizio products had the reputation for being the 'WalMart' of electronics, I was skeptical to try this router. I did some homework and found that others who had tried it were Very satisfied with it's performance. What better endorsement than that of a fellow user? So, since the price was Half that of the Cisco comparable - why not give it a shot. I had been using a Netgear wireless G and was having no problems. When I added a Sony HD TV and BluRay player, set up for wireless -- I began to have some stalls and 'waiting to catch up' times - especially on Netflix HD feeds. This Vizio dedicated the to 5.4 band Just for the HD video feed and has performed better than I Ever hoped.
Set-up was Out of the Box to Working in less than 10 mins. The interface is Easy to use. All my devices (3 PCs - 2 iTouch - and a Sony Dock - in addition to the TV) recognized and accepted the device immediately.
I would buy one again, and definitly recommend this to anyone wanting to watch HD...Read more

This was the easiest router I've ever set up. The directions are simple to follow. The entire directions are step by step in big letters and have good digrams/pictures to help you along and its only two laminated cards 5x10 inches. It seems that Vizo made it for the common guy with not alot of computer knowlege. I was up and running in about ten minutes (install, laptop, 2 PS3's and Itouch). Not a computer geek, but it broadcast in 802.11 a/h, 802.11g/n and 802.11b. My laptop, itouch and PS3 immediatley reconized the 802.11g/n and took the security key (WPA) that was given with the setup paperwork and is operating at 2.4HGz. There's three security keys given with the directions, so if your device reconizes the router, you can just input a key until the right one is input. I belive that the 802.11a/h (WPA2 security key) would only work for new faster devices. Again, this was easy to set up and is faster than my old router. I could only imagine how fast it is if I had a device...Read more
