N router

Chinese producer TP-Link has become quite well known in our market over the last few years and it is no wonder. They offer a complete range of networking solutions and in combination: a favorable price / premium features. We didn’t test their cheapest products this time, we chose a higher quality Wi-Fi router with 802.11n support for great coverage. Nevertheless, the price of these devices is well below one thousand crowns VAT.

 Quite competitive for its price

The Wi-Fi router is equipped with three 3dBi antennas, that can be removed and replaced for more efficient solutions. For ordinary households and small businesses the standard version of the device delivers a very powerful signal and provides an even larger coverage area than average routers. While the device supports Wi-Fi 802.11n, its price is not surprising high, but only supports 2.4 GHz band, which is currently full of misc. wireless networks and devices. Anyway in practice we have managed to reach a speed of about 60 MB / s. which is normal for wireless N but compared to Wi-Fi based on 802.11g is a significant increase.

The TP-Link product offers advanced security options, of course, including WPA2-PSK. We were very pleased by the presence of QSS button in the front of the router. Quick Secure Setup corresponds to the standard WPS and allows quickly add a device to secure the network without having to know and enter a complex password. Windows 7 will, for example, when identifying a wireless network from the TP-Link adapter, prompt you to push the button on the router. Once you do, your secure connection is set. But if you know how to deal with configuration, TP-Link is a great choice, the reward will be also very nice design.
