Blows away older Linksys,

This review is from: 1WAN 8LAN ports DSL Router VPN (Accessory)
Hello Amazon,
I found this Router very easy to set up and the speed is tremendous.
I use Comcast and didn't realize that Routers can be limited in their LAN to WAN Speed...
Here's what I mean:
My Older Linksys Router, although supposedly a 10/100 Router could only go a maxiumum of 10 MB/s between the Router and the Modem! So when you would do a Speedtest online, you'd get a maximum of 5-8 MB/s.
ALL we did was change to this router and down are download speed is 22 MB/s!!!!
It screams.
It is VERY easy to setup and comes with an easy setup CD (which I didn't need to use.)
Also, when you log into it -- http://192.168.1.1 be sure to turn on the Firewall and turn on all the optional security settings.
I did all this and then tested it with all the online Firewall testing sites...It returned a PERFECT score.
This router is honestly the best value on the planet.
The other low grade...Read more

TP-Link DSL/Cable Router,

This product was not easy to get to connect with my ATT/SBC DSL modem then to PC. Needed to change the IP constantly until it would recognize it. They do not need to insert the instruction as they are useless! Took me almost 2 hours and 3 phone calls before I got it working properly.
Add my other one to a cable router and it recognized it with little effort.
Both are working and I've not had any other problems, but it is not user friendly to setup!

I ordered this router thinking you get what you pay for. I used to have a lynksys wireless 4 port router wrt54-gl. With that router the max throughput on internet speed test was 7Mbps. With this router I get 10Mbps. I have 8 computers plugged into this router and 2 of them use 4 ports . The 4 ports used are for my at home job.This router is performing well beyond expectations. I would not hesitate to recommended this router to anyone that needs 8 ports. As a matter of fact I have ordered a spare in case it fails because of my job. I think that the person that said they took 2 hours setting it up probably didn't know that much about networking. I installed mine without making any changes and it worked perfect right out of the box. I do have roadrunner cable service. Maybe using DSL makes it more difficult to set up.
