  1. Wireless N Gigabit Router from Trendnet: TEW-633GR Review

    Reviewer: X-bit labs
    21 July 2008

    Summing up the results of today’s tests, I should say the TEW-633GR router is overall good, yet it proved to be inferior to its opponent, the DIR-655, in terms of speed. A strong aspect of the TEW-633GR is that it can support a large number of logical network connections simultaneously. Anyway, I guess it is the price factor that is going to be decisive in favor of the particular router model. The TEW-633GR looks preferable as it costs about 20% less than the DIR-655.... Read more

    Trendnet's 300Mbps Wireless N Gigabit Router (TEW-633GR) is reasonably priced and easy to install. We only wish it had better range. Read more

    If you’ve already installed a Wi-Fi router, you don’t need the vendor’s installation software to help you through the process. So we weren’t surprised that Trendnet didn’t develop anything for its TEW-633GR 802.11n Draft 2.0 product, relying instead on Pure Networks’ Network Magic. Read more

    Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: Good looking and slim design. Cons: I had been using Linksys 54G router for more than 3 years. Unfortunately, I made a mistake to switch to this 633GR router from Trendnet, thinking that an N router could be beneficial. Well, it did not turn out the way it was supposed to be. First, the mixed N/G gave a horrible performance. Then it ... Read more

    Like in our TRENDnet TEW-631BRP review, we are using the same .iso file that we have used in all of our other transfer speed tests. This file is a Windows XP Pro image of my original install disk. Using the TRENDnet TEW-621PC wireless N PCMCIA adapter, we used our test machines to get to the numbers that we are trying to get.
