    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.

    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.

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