If you want to show us an ultra-thin router, please *show us* the ultra-thin bit in all its glory. Not the broad front bit.

You're right, but it's not exactly clear how deep that is seeing as Engadget didn't want to show it to us: it almost looks like it could be pretty fat to me. Which brings me back to my original point: if Engadget wanted to show us a super thin router they should have shown us the super thin bit, because we can't really tell much from from a fuzzy reflection with no real scale reference.]]>Mar 4th 2010 12:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/
I just want to know where all the ports are?]]>Mar 4th 2010 12:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/

I would like to buy a router that doesn't lock up every day, or every other day, or every week. I would imagine it wouldn't be this hard to do, but I feel as though I'm running out of brands to try.

Thank you.]]>Mar 4th 2010 12:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/
Unless you live in a studio apartment, your network gear is probably going to be stuffed in a closet somewhere. I can't see myself paying a premium for something like this when I know that once deployed, even *I* am not going to see it.]]>Mar 4th 2010 12:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 1:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 2:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/
on a seperate note: give us a side view engadget! you are propagating a missconception that the full router is as thin as the edge. we want you to be honest to your readers, your not ASUS's marketing team! leave the hype to them and show US the product!]]>Mar 4th 2010 1:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 1:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 1:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 1:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 1:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 3:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 4:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/
And also you can use a polarizing filter against reflection and you should always have one when going to a thing like CEBIT in a professional capacity, or maybe an assistant with a large black (fordable) sheet, for areas that aren't busy obviously.

Sound like nice specs and features though so the thinness isn't that relevant.]]>Mar 4th 2010 5:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/asus-ultra-thin-rt-n56u-router-reflects-on-its-cebit-display/Mar 4th 2010 9:06PM
