An excellent router at a good price yes, however there are things to take in to consideration, for instance: Do you want to know if there is traffic on a specific port? This is useful with fault finding! Do you want to know the data rates? There are no LEDS showing this information! If you want to see LEDs showing this data then this is the wrong unit for you, however its not the end of the world ... The manual assumes you have set up knowledge, which not all of us have! There are three different ways to set it up, as far as I can understand from the manual. Ive set mine up in "Router Mode " using a cable, as Wifi in and around my my home is rather congested with signals. Question is - Where do I plug the cable which goes back to my hub? To me the sheet was not clear - There are 5 sockets on the back marked 1, 2, 3, 4 and "Internet" ( its all internet !!!) this may be obvious to some of you, but I feel the connector information has been "lost in translation". For sake of clarity: 1, 2, 3, & 4 are the outputs. "Internet" is the input from your main hub, or Modem as the "Guide puts" it, It's that simple. The "guide" does tell you that, after some thought is given as to whats its on about! There are three aerials on the back whic?h can be rotated to a number of angles to try and ensure maximum range. If you can work out how to connect to the Router itself, the instructions were clear enough to follow, You can do such things as: examining traffic data and, as I did: Change the password, change the admin name, & change its name to something you like the sound of., Mine arrived with the name :" TP-Link-E34C" which is a bit boring! There are LED indicators on it, and these are status LEDs which are useful, the idea is Blue is everything's working OK, there are 4 status modes. The unit comes with its own little power supply which runs quietly, and cool to touch. My overall feeling is its very good, it handles the thoughput well, pity about the instructions about where to shove the cat 5 plug's but once you have mastered that, plugged it in and played with it a bit its excellent.Read full review

I purchased this hoping it would improve my wireles range and maybe get the speed a little faster did this happen? NO!!! I went from having limited range and 20-24mb download & 18-20mb upload. After setting up the TP-LINK it to 9mb download & 9mb upload. Absolutely fuming it now lays on a shelf collecting dust and will most likely be thrown out at some point. Cheers TP-LINK!

I'd have given this 5 stars if it had 1000 Base-T(X). Otherwise, it is a fantastic little router. + Plenty of features in management + User-friendly management page + Very strong Wi-Fi signal + Small and lightweight, easy storage - 10/100 Base only, no 1000 Base (Gigabit) - Antennae are fixed/non-removable For the price, it is a nice device for a small home network. However, beware that if you transfer a lot of data across your network or have high speed (100mbps+) broadband, the device may cause a bottleneck.

I had a problem with Virgin-Media broadband dropping out repeatedly. The VM modem-router was re-starting ( occasionally re-initialising) by itself. I installed a net monitor, and traced the fault to the router part of the VM modem-router. I switched the modem-router to 'modem only' mode, then introduced this router into my network. Installation (using the 'built-in' wizard) was very straightforward. Previously there were up to six interruptions a day; since installing this router, there have been no interruptions at all. As a bonus, the Wi-Fi connections seem more stable now. I am using mainly Wi-Fi connections (up to 12, including video streaming), and one wired LAN; the router seems to be plenty fast enough. Note this is a version 3 router (450Mbps), and it came complete with power supply and WAN cable. I am very happy with this result.Read full review
