Gigabyte AirCruiser G Desktop Router Review

On our bench today, we have what Gigabyte claims to be a “World First” – a PCI based wireless networking card that doubles as a router, allowing you to simply set up any PC as an access point, personal file server and firewall – something people have been doing, albeit with some frustration via operating systems such as SmoothWall. Gigabyte claims to take all the headaches of these installs with a diskless install (albeit, with a CD included for users on older operating systems). Without any further delay, let’s see if this product can do what it’s touted to, or if it’ll end up frustrating and impossible. Read on to find out.

Very interesting concept. Does it live up to the hype? Check out the review at Motherboards.org.
