Decent wireless router for 70-642 labs

joehalford01

Any recommendations on a decent wireless router that I can lab radius with? I don't want to spend a ton but I need something that supports WPA2-EAP so I can set up a radius server and forward authentication requests to it from my extra laptop. I'm willing to spend about $200, and it looks like there are some decent cisco small business offerings but reviews of those seem mixed. Also, I couldn't find anything at the big box stores that supports anything other than PSK and even some of those were north of $200. Any ideas would be awesome, I'd like to get it ordered asap so I can lab this out. Thanks!!

I think pretty much any old Linksys routers support WPA2 with 802.1x

I have been using these lately, very nice stuff, especially if you need more than one. they come with POE as well. $70 base N model or there is the $230 model that does 5gz as well UniFi AP - UniFi AP single unit

Personally I would pick up a newer model refurb Linksys from Tiger or Newegg and flash it with DD-WRT. Won't spend more than $25-30 on it.
