- Belkin N1 Vision Router
The Belkin N1 Vision router is the most feature-packed and versatile router around. Belkin’s N1 Vision router comes with high speed 802.11n* ( * draft 2.0 compatible) wireless pumped out by three high gain aerials giving a range of up to 1,600 ft range. It is backward compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g networks. The router comes with 4 gigabit ports allowing you to take advantage of high speed networking within your LAN.
Greater Wireless Security
The plug-and-play CD-less setup is easy to use and comes with support for WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) and multiple SSID’s. The N1 Vision router supports the latest security standards including WPA, WPA2 and PPTP VPN. It also comes with a handy feature which allows you to quickly setup Guest Access to your wireless network. Next time your friends are down and want to connect to your wireless network, you can quickly allocate them a password to allow access to your network without giving away your main wireless password.
Another great feature of the N1 Vision is the support for 2 SSID’s.
In effect, guests to a wireless network can connect can to a different SSID and are kept on a
separate virtual network. Computers on the Guest SSID are not able to connect to your LAN or communicate with computers on the primary SSID. Only computers on the primary SSID are able to connect to your LAN and communicate with computers and devices on your network, creating a safer network environment.
Convenient LCD Display
By far the most talked about feature is the patent-pending LCD display on the router. This is probably one of the most unique features that puts the most important information about your network at your fingertips. LCD screens display the following views;
-
Current Time/Date
-
Wireless devices connected to your network
-
Current Download speed in a digital speedometer
-
Upload & Download speed in digital speedometers
-
Current Connection Speed
-
Bandwidth usage per device in the past 24 hours
-
Guest Access
The router includes buttons on the front allowing you to navigate through the display modes and modify important settings, like setting up Guest Access for your wireless network and viewing
diagnostic messages. We think its great for solving common connectivity problems.
All in all, we think the N1 Vision is a great router and you’ll be hard pressed to find a better looking, feature-packed home router.

For £50, well worth it! Cant even get an N router for that much!!
I use the N1 Vision Cable router after my ADSL modem, works a treat!
I own this router, Belkin has been brilliant in releasing fixes and updates quickly for this
It is their pride and joy!

I purchased this router because of the guest feature. Its quite convenient way of seperating your lan from a guest computer who you dont fully trust. Havent seen any other home routers being able to transmitt 2 seperate SSID’s yet? Maybe netgear will follow.. u can also view the guest network key on the routers LCD display!
