Its surface has been treated with aluminum, with a smooth texture and great strength that is relatively scratch-proof. It is very easy to slip in your pocket and carry around.
Also, I found it very handy that it has three modes, depending on your needs:
“Speed Mode” – Quad-speed

[CES 2013] Buffalo is coming up with a couple of new WiFi 11ac routers named Buffalo WZR-1750DHP ($179) and Buffalo WZR-1166DHP ($149). From what we understand, they look very much like the current Buffalo WZR-D1800H in terms of features and performance. However, they will come with Buffalo’s new user interface which makes the most used features (password, guest network… etc) easy to access and setup. Obviously there is still an “advanced” mode for users who want total control over their router setup. Buffalo has mentioned the possibility of adding a parental control feature, but isn’t sure if this particular revision of the product will have it a final decision on the matter should come soon.
