Purchase the ASUS RT-N56U or/and RT-N16 wireless N Router from any participating retailers and receive $50 (RT-N56U) or/and $30 (RT-N16) VISA GIFT CARD by redemption during 1/6/2011 ~ 31/08/2011.
Prices at MSY:
RT-N56U - $182
RT-N16 - $143
Both routers have 2 USB ports (printer server & usb hard drive support). RT-N56U is a simultaneous dual band N router. RT-N16 is a single band N router (2.4GHz, 300Mbps). Both have gigabit ethernet ports. Taking the gift card into consideration, Asus RT-N56U is probably the cheapest simultaneous dual band N router at the moment (or at least one of the cheapest).
RT-N16 is supported by DD-WRT and there is also other custom firmware options. RT-N56U is not supported by DD-WRT (hopefully will be). RT-N16 uses Broadcom chipset and Asus did not implement the dual band feature (chipset supports it but too few antennas put inside).
RT-N66U is probably on its way might have something to do with the promotion (basically a RT-N16 with simultaneous dual band N + more RAM/ROM).
Found this promotion from whirlpool forum initially.
To redeem, you need to:
1. Fill & submit in the form online.
2. Scan the receipt into electronic format (PDF or JPG I assume).
3. Take a photo of the serial number/barcode from the bottom of the box.
4. Mail #2, #3 and your details to marketing@asus.com.au.
You should get an e-mail reply from Asus fairly quickly. However, the card will take 2-4 weeks to arrive.
