AVM Fritzbox WLAN 3270



Use the Fritzbox's 802.11n wireless network on either of the two - 2.4GHz or the 5GHz - frequencies. 5GHz has less interference but shorter in range, so you can't use it simultaneously. You can execute a separate visitor wireless network for net-only access.
 
Consistent but not exceptional in performance in terms of 34Mbits/sec at close range on both frequencies. At long range (25m away) it totalled on 20Mbits/sec on the 2.4GHz frequency, but the 5GHz signal would not reach far enough. But its not disappointing.

The Fritzbox 3270 also has a USB port so you can plugin and share on a network; Print and scan; Use a 3G USB dongle (which you have to buy separately) for alternative net access instead using cable or a DSL connection. Fritzbox 3270 has a control management option on internet access times, you can choose to block websites or individual applications on whatever's moving in your network.

The Fritzbox is a fusion of advanced and novice functionalities. Quite expensive, but if price is not an issue here, then it's worth the money since it's not a fussy and time-consuming to set up.
