They gouge you here because they have a monopoly but the man I talked to there said ma'am go buy it else where our router is the same as everyone's and you can get it close to half or less off. If I have to I'll go to where he bought his which is radioshack but even that store here will be much higher then the same store else where. This is how it is when you live on mars.I feel my best bet is buying off line.
