Fashion seems to have become the mainstream concept of Linksys design. The WRT160N launched in the past year, and then the WRT54G2, UFO styling and piano paint exterior materials seem to have become synonymous with Cisco Wireless routing. Once the product is listed, it immediately becomes the focus of the entire market. This year, Cisco Consumer Division launched a new generation of dual-band 802.11n wireless route Linksys by Cisco WRT320N, continuing the classic look and design style, it seems that Cisco's fashionable wireless routing design concept is gradually leading the trend of the entire market, so that consumers pay more attention to performance and product design style.
The new dual-band 802.11n wireless route WRT320N is Cisco's first dual-band 11n wireless route in China. It features a 5 GHz and a 2-4 GHz dual-band, giving users more channels to choose from, the interference between channels is minimized during use. Although WRT320N is not the first dual-band wireless route in the industry, the foreign media have learned that the performance of this product has been significantly improved, combined with the high efficiency and practicality of Cisco's wireless route management software LELA (Linksys Easy Link Advisor), it will certainly bring users a little bit of experience.
Whether this m wireless route can replace 54M to become the mainstream in the future of the market. What is the actual effect of dual-frequency applications on consumers? After we have carefully evaluated this product, the answer will be revealed.
