The WHR-1166D provides up to 866 Mbps transfer speed in the 5GHz band and simultaneous transfer speeds of up to 300 Mbps in the 2.4GHz band. Furthermore, easy setup is a few clicks away via a simple User Interface that's accessible on a computer, smartphone, or tablet. Buffalo's new AirStation is also very family-friendly with Norton ConnectSafe web filtering as well as Parental Control that allows you to limit the amount of time specific users are connected.
