Emberjs rc1 does not expose the router in this way.

As an alternative you should access router via local references.

• From a controller: this.get('target')
• From a view: this.get('controller.target')
• From a model: no. just don't do this.
• From the console: It is possible to Access the new ember router in the console but keep in mind that App.container was not meant to be a public API

It's not just the router, pretty much everything that used to be accessible via global constants is now hidden. This is because using global constants to access instances breaks encapsulation, and while that is fine for the console it should be avoided in your application code.
