Seems that all their hardware is commercially oriented.

Looking for something beside LinkSys/D-Link or NetGear for my home
wireless.

TIA

There are many companies out there who produce wireless equipment. May I ask
why you do not wish to use Linksys, Dlink or Netgear?

Here are some others...

Hotbrick 401W www.hotbrick.com I plan on getting one and plugging it into
my WG converting the 401W into a wire/wireless AP switch.

WG has a wireless but it's only wireless B

Because they are basically all low end "consumer" grade hardware.

Belkin is a reliable alternative.

Cisco 1100 and 1200 series WiFI APs are very nice. look on ebay.

More power. Nice cosmetics; they come with brackets that let them
hang on the wall, wired from behind. With POE you don't even need a
120VAC power cord.

You're recommending access points for use as a router?

No, but the OP might be interested in what better-grade WiFi gear
looks like and costs.

How big is your home network?

You can always load Sveasoft firmware onto a Linksys router to give it
additional features.
