This review is from: TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND Ultimate Wireless N Gigabit RouterI bought two of these routers with the intention of flashing them with DD-WRT. Both flashed extremely fast and easily without any hitches and can be flashed via the router's web GUI (no Telnet, etc). Both routers have been running non stop ever since flashing them and have worked perfectly. I have been very pleased thus far with TP-Link products, especially after having a lot of issues with Belkin routers (hangs, slooooow response, rebooting, over-heating, etc). You can't beat the price vs features with this TL-WR1043ND (for sure when using DD-WRT, but even the original TP-Link firmware is still very usable). I my opinion this is the best price vs features gigabit router on the market for DD-WRT.For those interested, here are some hardware specs:Platform...........Atheros AR9132 @ 400 MHz FCC ID.............TE7WR1043NX Wireless NIC...Atheros AR9103 3x3 MIMO WLAN..............802.11b/g/n LAN.................4/gigabit WAN................1/gigabit RAM.................32 MB Flash...............8 MB Serial Port.......1 (internal) JTAG...............1 (internal) USB.................1 (external) Input Voltage...12V 1.5A...

This review is from: TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND Ultimate Wireless N Gigabit RouterI bought this to replace belkin wireless N+ router (you can see my review for the belkin N+). The signal from may laptops to belkin would vary between 1Mbps - 48Mbps, and often losing the signal all together. This is with using built in wireless G. I added belkin wireless N adapter and signal would then range from 11Mbps - 120Mbps, but far fewer drops. I replaced with this TP-Link TL-WR1043 and after 1 week, I get no wireless drop outs at all. My laptop with built in wireless G consistently reports 54Mbps and my laptop with the belkin N adapter generally reports 120Mbps (sometimes dropping to 60Mbps, sometimes as high as 150Mbps).I should note that the TP-Link router is in the same exact location where my old belkin was, and my laptops are in the same exact location. So I have not varied distance nor obstacles between router & laptops. My laptops are ~75 feet from router in separate building, nearest neighbor ~.75 miles, so no change in interference from neighbors. Now if only I could figure out how to get 300Mbps. I have tried from several other locations, but best I ever get is 150Mbps. But as this greatly exceeds my connection to ISP, it is not really a big issue. Oddly enough, if I move closer to the router, I get slower connection (~30Mbps) with N adapter but still get 54Mbps with build-in wireless G adapter....

This review is from: TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND Ultimate Wireless N Gigabit RouterI bought this wireless router because of the features and the reviews. It is a good thing I did. This is an excellent router.Pros:Ease of Setup - I got this working in less than 10 minutes. Just turn off your Cable modem and computer. Connect the router to the modem using the included cable. Power up everything. Then put in the CD and in a few minutes you are done. That includes setting up the WPA2 security.Range - My previous Wireless Routers(Apple,Linksys,Zyxel) could only give me at most 61% from one end of my house to the other. This gives me 85%. That is going through 3 Bedrooms and furniture.Speed - I used to get 12 Mbps with my previous router. I just tested it now and I now have 19.89 Mbps download speed from the same site I always test with.Price - Excellent value for money.Network USB Hardrive - You can easily share a USB hard drive. You now have no limit to how much videos you can download and games you can play. Share the drive with your entire family.Cons:Not Dual Band - It isn't dual band, but i don't need it so it does not bother me.Summary:This is a real find. Never heard of this company before, but I am very impressed with this product....
