Verizon to out 802.11n FiOS router this summer


According to Verizon spokesperson Bill Kula, Verizon will release a home Wi-Fi router for its FiOS fiber optic service that supports the 802.11n standard this summer. Thus far, the available Actiontec and Westell hotspots don't support the faster Wi-Fi and have required that users add their own routers.

The broadband home router is now being tested for integrating into systems, and is expected to come out in July or August, Kula said. Besides 802.11n, it will have a Gigabit Ethernet connection. No prices have been announced. [via DSLReports]
