As others have pointed out, a real WiFi router is pretty cheap. I wouldn't base the decision on the "router" aspect.

Re: Vesper Marine AIS system
Thanks for the good advice. I’m still going to go ahead with the Vesper AIS, but solely for nav purposes, since I like the other features. I do like the idea of tossing our current Airport router for something more current, so I’ll give a new router a try. I am assuming it would be compatible with the current Rogue Wave antenna?
