Boston, MA | Who is going to be selling these? I can't find them anywhere. |

| With the exception of the WHR-HP-G54 this is a fairly new range of products.
In the UK we can at the moment buy only the WHR-G300N, the WLI-TX4-AG300N and the WLI-UC-G300N. All the rest are coming soon.
Presumably it may take Buffalo some time to reactivate their wifi product channels in the States, so the target of end of January 2009 may not be achieved. But we're not quite there yet... |

I am sure Amazon, Buy.com an the others will soon stock pile them. But I am not too sure of the new N Gig routers. They have to be tested and proven to work and not drop the LAN WAN or WLAN or WWAN connections like the prior model did. |

2 edits | The first listings of the new range are starting to appear on USA vendors web sites, for example Provantage are now listing the WHR-G300N at $64.66, the WLI-TX4-AG300N at $89.98, the WLI-UC-G300N at $56.99, and the WHR-HP-G54 at $63.79. All these four are currently shown as special order.
In stock they have the Buffalo WCA-T Wi-Fi Gamers Access Point at $48.36 - if I recall correctly this were launched only a few weeks before the CSIRO trouble blew up. I don't know much about it but I think it is aimed mainly at console users such as the Nintendo DS, Wii, and Sony Playstation rather than PCs. It has a single lan port, and is 11b, not 11g. Presumably this was because it was intended to act as a simple way to link a console to the internet, and at the time 11b was considered to be adequate. And yes it is only an Access Point, it has to plugged into an existing router.
Edit: In the UK the WCA-G is currently being sold, the same spec except it has 11g as well as 11b. |
