Linksys has debuted several additions to its Ultra RangePlus family of wireless-n products that it believes "will extend the Linksys leadership position in the home networking space" at CES in Las Vegas.

Following Beklin and it's N1 model, Linksys too has created a fashion, design conscious router for people who want to show they are "Connected".

The WRT310N and WRT160N promises a new user interface, flash video-based guided installation, and simplified terminology that doesn't require a knowledge of networking jargon make setting up a wireless network easier than ever before.

The company has also announced the launch of the Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Notebook Adapter (WUSB600N), Dual-Band Wireless-N ExpressCard Adapter (WEC600N), and the Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming Adapter (WGA600N).

Also being showcased at CES is Linksys EasyLink Advisor (LELA), an enhanced network setup and management tool that serves as a "Network Advisor in a Box" to consumers.

Prices range from $129.99 for the WRT310N to $89.99 for the WGA600N.
