Revainrating 3 out of 5

Normal quality, you can use it.

I've been utilizing this TP-Link line for three years now, so I'm familiar with the 841N line. The manufacturer initially used the new MediaTek processor instead of the well-deserving Atheros since the new version (revision) v2022 turned out to be problematic. Previously, an alternate firmware called dd-wrt was able to fix all of TP-Link's issues. Version v2022 won't have DD-WRT support and isn't even anticipated because it has a different CPU installed. The firmware from LEDE is the only choice, but (in my opinion) I don't like it. Everything would be OK, but the router frequently loses wifi connection (between one and ten times per day). Additionally, channels 7 to 13 frequently experience wifi disconnections; this problem can be fixed by switching to channels 1-6. I won't specify what it's related to, but after switching from channel 11 to channel 3, the disconnections and reboots stopped, and the connection is now steady. To reassure doubters, this is unrelated to the "noise" on the radio, "crooked" hands, and anti-advertising. As a result, I DO NOT RECOMMEND the complete 841N series, but rather only the 841N router's revision v2022. (Although revision 13 of this equipment's firmware is not recommended. The firmware version can be found on the router's back or on the box even before you purchase it from the seller.

Pros
  • Any model is fantastic, with the exception of the 13th iteration (the MediaTek processor was added to the current one).
Cons
  • Any model is fantastic, with the exception of the 13th iteration (the MediaTek processor was added to the current one).
