The Western Digital My Net N900 Central dual-band router offers a great combination of fast Wi-Fi speed
A nice networking feature set
And useful network storage
Some thought has gone into making a good
Responsive web interface. Prettier than your standard router box
The editors didn't like
Somewhat sluggish hard drive performance
Certificate issues with WD 2go Web site
Lacklustre 2.4GHz performance
Poor NAS speeds
Expensive outlay
Only one USB port
Poor parental features
The My Net N900 Central's internal hard drive can't be replaced
And the router doesn't support the new 802.11ac standard
2.4GHz performance isn't great
Especially at range. Storage isn't worth the extra cost due to low warranty. Cisco
Billion and Netgear all offer twice the warranty of Western Digital

As a debut product for Western Digital, we have to give the My Net N900 high marks. The functionality and the GUI make this a perfect purchase for the beginner as well as the network engineer. Those looking to upgrade their existing systems should b...
Yes. The NAS features are a little lacking, and the lack of 802.11ac might hurt in a few years, but for now, FasTrack is the first exciting thing to happen to routers in a while.Western Digital My Net N900 HD• Networking: 802.11n (2.4+5 GHz Dualband)• Eth...
Class leading chipset and specifications, Simple configuration and rich set of features, Game changing FasTrack traffic shaping,
No watchdog / automated reboot (i.e. must be manually reset if it ever freezes)
I was pleasantly surprised by Western Digital's entry into the high end router sector. It's not often that I can't wait until a product's release date to start telling people how great the technology is. Last month's demo had me sold, and having spent...
Excellent throughput at 2.4 GHz. Very good throughput at 5 GHz. Excellent range. Intuitive setup and management software. Has seven Gigabit Ethernet ports. Two USB 2.0 ports for printer and NAS.
USB ports sit too close to power on/off button. Throughput not as robust at 5 GHz as in other competing high-end routers on the market
Western Digital's MyNet N900 is a delightful surprise from a vendor not known for making wireless routers with a nice, simple, easy-to-remember product name....
At $179.99, the My Net N900 is priced at the upper end of the consumer router market. From what we have seen, the N900 does offer a mix of features that will support a robust home network with a variety of traffic and devices. Western Digital has brought...
Excellent 5GHz 802.11n performance, Integrated storage offers simple NAS functionality, Simple remote access to media content
Weak 2.4GHz 802.11n performance, Cheap build materials, Too expensive for a router lacking 802.11ac
Western Digital has made a solid entrance into the router market. The My Net N900 Central may not be the most attractive router you'll see and its 2.4GHz performance is nothing special, but its 5GHz speeds are excellent and its integrated storage makes it...

In a way the full nature of its feature-set is the downfall of the WD My Net N900 Central. Including the 1TB HDD significantly bumps the price of this device, doubling it over that of the hard-drive free WD My Net N900 that, with its expanded Gigabit LAN...
The N900 Central is a little pricey, but the fact that it includes both a hard disk and a dual-band router makes it a good option for any home or small office that needs an all-in-one networking and storage system in a single box
