great value for tp link
i used this with a virgin media router on modem mode and this works perfectly. reliable with great signal especially when paired with a mesh range extended. the interface is easy to use with loads of features and the smartphone app is also great to use and convenient.

Fabulous router at a bargain price!
I'm not very computer-savvy but now we have 2 wi-fi enabled phones in the house and I'm shortly buying a chromebook, I thought it's about time I had wi-fi. Basically I bought the TP-Link due to the high number of excellent reviews.I was dreading fiddling around with my PC but once I had pulled the computer desk (and vacuumed behind it!) I plugged in all the wires as per the instructions and bingo, my iPhone was connected via wi-fi. It took all of 5 minutes. However, my PC said that it had no internet connection so I put in the CD supplied with the router and followed the simple instructions. I did it 3 times and eventually got it working by unplugging everything, plugging back in and re-starting. All in all it took 20 minutes (but another hour to sort out the wife's junk in and on the desk!I'd highly recommend this unit - it was simple to set up, is small and unobtrusive and works like a dream. In fact, upon returning home, my phone connected to my wi-fi some distance away.I'll review my review in a few months and let you know if there are any problems.Oh, by the way, I'm on Virgin cable if that assists you in making a purchase.TP-Link - many thanks for a fab purchase - I'm very happy!!Updated review:- 31/12/2013I have owned this router for over a year now and I am VERY happy with its performance. We now have no less than 8 wi-fi-enabled gadgets regularly sucking internet through it and giving our phones, tablets and chrome-books excellent service. It sits on the computer desk flashing away 24 hours a day and doesn't even get warm. The reception is excellent downstairs (where the router is sited) and the signal strength is indicated as high upstairs in the bedrooms but its very hard to get phones/tablets etc working at full speed upstairs. I'll probably buy a wifi repeater for upstairs and see how that goes. However, its not a major problem and, as I said, we get great sevice downstairs and even in the garden.This is probably one of my best purchases on amazon. You don't need to have a large data bundle from your phone provider when you can use the wifi at home.For info we are still on Virgin cable and these are the products we use on wifi:-1 iPhone 3GS (yes I know very old!)2 ipad minis2 Hudls1 Samsung Galaxy S2 phoneSamsung ChromebookDesktop Dell PC

Easy to setup WiFi router (Virgin Media cable ISP)
From messing around with MS ICS (internet connection sharing) from the PC's motherboard gigiabit LAN to share internet with the onbaord 54g WiFi AP was getting silly. Its an older Win XP thing, and new firewalls are kinda leaving it out, because it's a pain. Anyway, I did get that to work after a few days of messing about, and I learnt a few things.I needed a WiFi router!**This came delivered in retail box, wrapped in clear shrink wrap plastic (manufacturer packaging) with "documents enclosed" clear window and Amazon's stickers attached. It wasn't what I was expecting from frustration free packaging. I'm kinda pleased I received a retail box, but at the same time disappointed Amazon spent no effort to conceal the item from the postal service or anyone else. It's just to let people know, and is no reflection on the product review**OK, it's got a UK 3 pin power supply (I read the lower end models may not??).A short RJ45 CAT5 cable is included.The antennas can be bent straight out of the back, for vertical mounting. They feel sturdy enough I guess (how often are you gonna move them?).It can be mounted vertically either way up thanks to the slots on the rear that slip over screw heads.Setup was really simple. The guide gives simple easy to follow hookup instructions, for "ADSL modem" read "any modem ADSL or cable" - it doesn't have its own modem in built, you need to use your ISP modem or ADSL modem.Don't bother with the mini CD, just open your browser and login to [...], and you have access to the different settings that the modem can offer. Click the "quick setup" option, follow the instructions, and choose "dynamic IP" as that is most likely (it says that in the pamphlet). Clone your MAC address, and that's the wired side done (assuming connecting main PC via Ethernet).WiFi network setup is really simple too, foolow instructions, use WPA2-PSK, enter an 8 digit multi character password (letters, numbers, and symbols @:£& etc), change the network name (SSID) if you like. That's done.Security settings were surprisingly straight forward to adjust. I wanted to Hide the name of the network, so people don't see it when scanning. This is called "disabling SSID broadcast" and there's a check box next to "broadcast SSID" - easy?I wanted to stop other devices from using the network (if they did manage to find it) so needed MAC filtering, which blocks all machine access codes (identifying numbers of all devices (network cards, dongles, PCs etc) except for ones on your allow list. Add new, enter the MAC address (you can find it in WiFi stats if its connected to your WiFi network), give it a name, and allow it - done.So yeah, it's password encrypted with one of the better encryption methods, the network name is hidden, and it denies access to any machine/device except for the ones I have listed. Of course these things *can* be broken, but only by someone trying really hard and being particularly determined.I also specified that only my main PC has access to change any router settings, and that is actually always wired to the router - so another good security point.There's some parental controls and stuff like that, whereby certain sites can be blocked at certain times from certain users - all seemingly advanced but easy to setup - there's a pattern here!Took me about 5mins to bounce through all the settings and have the internet radio playing on a netbook in one room, whilst surfing on the main pc in the bedroom.In use (1x wired PC + 1x netbook wifi) it's 2.7watts consumption, that's a lot lower than that Virgin superhub thing (from what I've heard its over 12watts!). Of course you have to add the 6watts or whatever that your modem uses to the total bill from running the network.There's no real impact on a 10mbps cable connection, maybe 0.2mbps drop but maybe not. It's not noticeable.I'm still having a trouble setting up a Local network (LAN) between the WinXPhome PC and Win7Starter netbook, but thats because the 2 OS's are network crippled to some extent, and I don't know quite what I am doing. I did it once using my Motherboard Wifi, but wasn't sharing internet then. It's definitely possible, I just need to find the right settings.In summary, yes very easy to get up and running. Everything is included to pop it in between your existing modem and the PC you were using (connected via Ethernet RJ45). Low power consumption. OK, it's a bit flimsy feeling, but it's not something you are gonna be carrying around a lot!==I always buy from Amazon, not a merchant. Speedy free saver delivery, ordered Friday gone 10pm, arrived Monday==

Great Router and Access Point
I used this device briefly as my main router as my ISP hadn't yet shipped their own brand router before my internet was upgraded to fibre. I now use it as a reliable access point to extend the range of my network for 4k streaming, light gaming, and general web browsing.Setting this thing up was really simple. I'm pretty knowledgeable with tech, but I don't think I'd have much trouble if I had less experience. To use this with fibre to the property connections, you have to change the router settings to PPPoE and use login details specific to your ISP. (Search for 'PPPoE login BT/Sky/Plusnet/EE...). The web interface is remarkably simple and modern so poses no problems!Once my ISP router arrived, I switched this over to access point mode to reach some dead spots in my flat. Again, really simple to do with one button in the web client. Devices connect seamlessly and quickly. This router has been incredibly reliable, being consistent on delivering 500Mbps speeds.The range is good, but no improvement over the one I have from Plusnet. If you're looking to buy this to extend the range of your WiFi, you won't see much difference if you have anything from the past few years. One minor complaint is the shiny black plastic on top which is a nightmare for dust and scratches. This is, however, a great value for money buy for those looking for an access point, or upgrading anything that caps out at 100Mbps!
