If you're in the market for a new router, you will find you have a lot of choices to pick from. There are literally dozens of manufacturers producing and selling them, and they nearly all look alike too. So when shopping for a new router how does one company go about differentiating their router from a sea of others that all look alike? Well, first of all, they stand it upright, give it a sleek black glossy finish and add an LCD screen on it. Had I not seen the word "router" next to the picture of the Belkin N1 Vision (and maybe the antennas) when I first saw it, I probably would not have known what it was. It was certainly intriguing as it instantly captured my attention. Here at Benchmark Reviews we have on hand the Belkin N1 Vision wireless N router for review.

If the looks of the Belkin N1 Vision router are not enough to persuade you then maybe what lies underneath it's beautiful skin will. It uses the still yet to be ratified 802.11n draft 2.0 technology which is capable of speeds up to 300 Mbps and farther reaching than the 802.11g and 802.11b devices. It also has 1 wired Gigabit WAN and 4 Gigabit LAN ports and on the back so that wired devices can run at top speeds to avoid any potential lag.

The most intriguing part though is the LCD screen which is not just a gimmicky add on to help sell it. Although it doesn't hurt it for sure. It contains some very useful information such as who's all connected to your network, how much bandwidth each user has consumed, separate speedometers to measure upload and download throughput speeds, and even the date and time.
