Brando has, for your edification, a tiny, eeny, weeny, beeny wireless router for traveling. Priced at $45, this tiny 802.11n router is just 1 cm tall and 6 cm long. It supports just about every standard under the sun and can even clone MAC addresses for those who, umm, would want to do that?

The EagleTec Nano Size Wireless N-Router is a portable wireless-N Router with up to 150 Mbps in 2.4 GHz band, which is also compatible with IEEE 802.11b/g wireless devices. The router allows multiple users to share one broadband connection, as well as secures your private network. Support auto device IP assignment to make the plug and play for travel application. The hardware slide switch selects Router, AP and WISP (client) modes. To provide a secure wireless network, the router supports wireless data encryption with 64/128-bit WEP, WPA and WPA2. Network Address Translation (NAT) Firewall is also support to shield your communications and network from hackers and wireless eavesdroppers.

I actually just bought one of these for those rare occasions when I have to connect my computers and various iP[ads|hones] and all that’s available is a frayed Ethernet cable.
