Actiontec and TRENDnet's new 500 Mbps Powerline AV adapters make a key spec tradeoff to achieve their tiny size and price.

NETGEAR's GS510TP packs plenty of PoE power to keep its eight Gigabit ports fully supplied.

NETGEAR shrank the size of its XAVB5101 500 Mbps HomePlug AV powerline adapter kit, but not its performance.

Updated - The Cisco RV042G finally brings Gigabit ports to Cisco's workhorse small biz VPN router.

Updated - Cisco's OnPlus can help guardians of small business networks keep their head hair where it belongs for less than $5/month.

Cisco has packed a lot into its Layer 2/3 SG500-28P switch and still kept the price under $1000.

Cisco's RV180 features damn fast routing and decent IPsec throughput, but very slow PPTP.

ZyXEL has come up with an $80 IPsec/PPTP VPN router that's worth a serious look.
