I'm in the market for a N-Router for my new Sager NP2090 and Intel 4965AGN.
I have been using SMC wired routers for years and feel they are superb ! But it seems hard to find reviews or even a supplier who has them stocked. I sent a email last week and no reply ???
Here are the latest models

Haven't seen them around here either, which is indeed unusual since they were always the ones on sale. I can't even recall the last time I seen an SMC router on sale in a flyer now that you mention it.

I think they got out of the business of making residential equipment. But I have not heard any news about them in 6 mo or so.

They still make residential equipment, and Amazon stocks them, among other online resellers.
For instance:

Visit the SMC website and click on the Where Do I Buy link. -
There's like one link to one vendor ???
Outstanding reviews on the SMC-WBR14N... just what I'm looking for.
They make a fine product and it's a shame you don't see more of them online and in stores. -
In the US: 20 online sources, 4 retail stores, and 4 distribution centers. Among the online sources are Newegg, Amazon, and Dell. You might not be able to go to your local mall and buy one, but you can't say there is only one place to buy their products.

Only 2 vendors on that list have the SMC-WBR14N. I'll give them a call tomorrow to see whats up.

Maybe I'm jumping the gun here, looks like their N products are pretty new.
