Plus, the included EZmax multi-language setup wizard makes it a breeze in internet connection, wireless settings and firmware upgrade.

Even when it is in full loading, the BR-6428n uses 50% less power compared to other non-green 300Mbps routers.

The latest wireless technology is built into this iQ router to broaden its wireless coverage by 5 times and to reduce dead spots within the wireless range. When it is connected to wireless 802.11n compatible devices, the BR-6428n can achieve transmission rates of up to 300Mbps. The BR-6428n is truly a cost-effective solution for any home or small business environment.
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) Button & WLAN Switch The Edimax BR-6428n allows you to build secure connections with WPS enabled wireless devices simply by pressing the WPS button. No need to go through the hassle of setting up and configuring the security of your wireless network. With the built-in WLAN switch, you can easily switch on/off the wireless connection without any extra settings.
Flexible WISP (Wireless Internet Service Provider) Connection Mode With WISP support, the BR-6428n is able to access the Internet wirelessly from an ISP access point and turn it into a wired or wireless network for multiple users in your home or office.

N/A 5/18/2013 1:46:13 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Outstanding Product/Price Pros: great value, lots of features Cons: none that I can think of, this product reminds me of how back in the day technology was as available cheaply, I mean real cheap from most everyone, but good products/good engineering. but now only places like Newegg.com are still keepin it real Did you find this review helpful?

N/A 5/18/2013 1:41:11 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5 Pros: strong signal through walls, and good bandwidth lots of features Cons: it doesn't have an extended remote antenna Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 5/13/2013 1:11:51 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5so far so good Pros: Fast Cheap N-Spec Not Hot Cons: Takes some fiddling Had problems with latest firmware went back one Any changes will require a reboot of the router.. however this can be done at anytime.. or so it says. Took me a few hours to get this thing to produce. Other Thoughts: Good router. Had i just left it alone in the beginning and not touched it it probably would've been fine. But I upgraded the firmware and then messed with all the settings. Resulted in the router giving me very slow internet access. However once I reflashed it to a lower version. Everything seemed fine. N-spec seems pretty strong. For twenty something dollars i'm impressed. Not sure how long it's gonna last though. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 4/19/2013 6:17:41 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Outstanding Edimax customer service Pros: Works as described. Easy to use management interface. Runs cool. Other reviewers seemed concerned about the fire hazard warning in the user manual. This is just a safety notice like the suffocation warning on plastic bags. Anything that plugs in can catch on fire. Cons: One of three I bought last April failed during update flash even though I used the supplied Ethernet cable for the flash and I had the router and the computer plugged into the same UPS unit. Other Thoughts: Edimax customer service replied to my first email within one hour. When their suggestion failed to revive the router they issued an RMA. I mailed the defective router to them on a Friday. They sent me a tracking number for the replacement and I got the replacement from them on the following Wednesday. Excellent, prompt, and courteous communication. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 3/12/2013 5:46:00 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great for home networking Pros: Perfect for your basic home networks Easy setup. (Software included or use your browser) Lot's of options Open NAT options for gaming (xbox live included) Can handle my ISP's speeds just fine (25-55 Mbps dwn. 4 Mbps up). I currently have 10 devices in my house that access the internet through this router, and they all connect perfectly. Cons: The bright white! agh! The wifi range. Not good, not bad...just average. Other Thoughts: Those having trouble with this router dropping connections...Try changing DNS. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
rickrose0506 3/4/2013 10:47:58 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great Router Pros: Good Range and Great Stock Software with lots of features. Cons: None so far Other Thoughts: I am using this in a environment where there are other routers/access points covering alot of the US 2.4 GHZ Wifi Spectrum. This router has a range consistent if not a little better than the other 4 devices I have installed. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 2/27/2013 9:28:23 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Working Great! Pros: Works great. Has been on for almost 14 days with between 4 and 10 wireless devices and one wired PS3 and has yet to have a problem. The wireless G coverage from this router is a little weaker than the linksys it replaced, however the wireless N coverage is far better than the G coverage anyway. WRT54G speedtest.net speed was 8Mbps download upstairs on wireless G. This router is 18Mbps upstairs on the same laptop with wireless G. My internet tops out around 23Mbps with wireless N on this router. Cons: Administration interface isn't the easiest because they try to make it too easy. Other Thoughts: Great buy for less than 30 dollars. Don't regret upgrading at all. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Doug 2/16/2013 8:33:19 AM Tech Level: 3/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Listened to wife... Pros: Fast and easy to set-up. Cons: No complaints! Other Thoughts: We were having trouble with our older router. I thought the internet was slow at our house, because we live out in the country. I bought this router even though it cost half what the old router cost. Now, we can even get online on the weekends and actually do stuff!!! Thanks Newegg and Edimax! We are extremely pleased.

Latex 2/14/2013 12:07:42 PM Tech Level: 2/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great Product!! Pros: Fast and easy to set up in my opinion. Was online in minutes. Great price. I get speeds of up to 177Mbps. My modem is old and limits my speed. Cons: None so far Other Thoughts: Edimax Customer service is great. I had a minor issue where the router was dropping signal intermittently. Emailed Edimax and I got a response within 24hrs with instruction on how to fix it. Fix was real simple and worked. Will highly recommend this router. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 2/13/2013 9:39:52 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great Value and Good Performance Pros: Extremely great value. I bought this thinking it might be a bad idea to buy a cheap router. This thing works great. My old wrt54g did about 2mbps ftp transfers over the wireless network from a server on the LAN. This router does an average of 6mbps from LAN to a wireless device. Awesome value and eggsaver shipping was free and arrived in 3 days. Cons: None yet. Have had it on for 2 days and transferred over 20gb in ftp transfers and it hasn't dropped out or reset at all. Other Thoughts: Only time will tell if the life of this router will have made it a great buy. At this point it works great and if you are knowledgeable you will have no problem using the administration console. Upgrade the firmware first it was really old when it arrived. If this router lasts me 7yrs like my wrt54g did then im pretty happy. I don't see 6mbps being too slow for me for a while. Did you find this review helpful?
