FON launches Fonera 2.0n web applications router
Author: Jeff24 Sep
FON has recently announced that their Fonera 2.0n web applications 802.11n router is now available in the US for $99. The Fonera is by no means your conventional router but instead it’s what is described as a “computer with no screen” in the sense that you could control a ridiculous amount of different web applications such as Twitter, Facebook in addition to download torrents remotely.
But that’s not all, you can hook up a web cam, printer and just about everything else you think of to the Fonera and control them all remotely. Better yet, it’s open source!
Still confused? Hit the break for a video breakdown of the Fonera 2.0n router.

This “all-in-one” device has to be compared with more expensive “best of breed” individual devices such as the following:
- Popcorn Hour, for download device, the “gold standard” of download devices, also plays audio/video content and has an HDMI port to attach it to your big screen TV
- cheap netbook/laptop, for download device. You can just buy an inexpensive laptop and leave it on all day. Plus, you can add whatever codecs you need to play content back. Some of these have HDMI ports.
- Cradlepoint routers, whose extensive driver support allows many cellular carriers’ 3G/4G phones/dongles to act as your WAN connecion
