Buy.com has the Asus RT-N13U 802.11b/g/n Router with All-in-One Printer Server for $57 - $20 rebate [Exp 12/31] = $37 with free shipping. Instead of hiding away bit torrent support in shame and fear of the recording industry, Asus touts this router's massive bit torrent support with BT Engine functionality. God forbid anyone use this for less than legal purposes.

    #3, I agree with you. Why is it impossible to get a decent deal on a gigabit router?

    because this is a consumer level product and majority home users have sub 20mb internet. why would they offer gigabit on a consumer level router? if you want gigabit, you can easliy attach a gigabit switch.

    I want a gigabit router. I have a NAS. Adding a switch to get gigabit between PC's and NAS is another box I have to find a place to plug in and something else that can break....

    @MPoWeRM3:
    Internet connection speeds are irrelevant (unless you're paying for a private fiber connection); gigabit is only relevant for LAN data transfer.

    @lightbulb42:
    You may want to check out the Netgear WNR3500. There are occasionally deals here and it's a pretty good gigabit router.
