Everything about the product satisfied me, the price is perfect.

Great model for a small apartment. In terms of price / quality ratio, it simply has no equal. The Internet with a wire via PPTP 50 Mbit / s (at the rate) pumps torrents without problems, while IPTV through the set-top box works fine at the same time. There are a few complaints about WiFi, the power of which leaves much to be desired, but for a small apartment this is not critical, as I wrote above.

Pros
  • Price Simple and clear old-school setup interface Works well with PPTP
Cons
  • Design for an amateur No MPPE Weak WiFi

Total disappointment, the product is terrible.

Of course, I bribed the price was less than 800 re, at first I was happy for the phone more or less enough, after looking at the speed on the computer, I was disappointed that the speed was no higher than 2 mb / s! After half a year, the Internet began to fly off, then the reset button helped, the other day even the reset does not help, just the POWER is on and that's it

Pros
  • Price, beautiful design!
Cons
  • low speed, low-quality device, broke after six months of use!

I am satisfied, the product fully corresponds to the description.

I bought two devices of this model to cover the entire territory of the apartment with a stable and seamless connection, but my idea failed. The purchased devices turned out to be of different revisions: v8 and v9, and they turn out to be very different in terms of the wireless network. v8 showed stable Wi-Fi operation, and pleased with the unexpected additional support for 5 GHz, although this was not indicated either in the store or on the box, but v9, on the contrary, frankly disappointed…

Pros
  • — Price - Simultaneously simple and wide setting of the device - Holds a load over a wired network well - Doesn't heat up - If the settings in the standard firmware are not enough for you, then you will be pleased with good compatibility with OpenWRT
Cons
  • - Revision v9: poor performance of the Wi-Fi transmitter, all neighboring Wi-Fi will scoff at yours and jam the unfortunate one, it is even jammed by the same model, only v8 revisions, their seamless operation is impossible - Poor performance with combinations of IPTV and PPTP, there are periodic freezes once a week when watching digital television

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

Before him, I used DIR 620. At a speed from a provider of 90, DIR gave wifi no more than 50. Through a concrete wall, the speed dropped to 35. In general, DIR and zyxel decided not to buy anymore, because. at a high price, they do not provide speed and reliability. I bought Tp-link 841. I bought it in October 2022 for 1290. There are no problems at work. Works stably. Speed ​​does not cut. I put OpenWrt firmware on it, but it did not give any advantages in terms of speed and stability…

Pros
  • 1. It breaks through a solid concrete wall well. The provider gives a rate of 90mb / s at the rate. If you connect the wire directly to the router, then 90mb / s will be. Near the router on wifi 80mb / s. In the next room through a concrete main wall on wifi - 75mb/s. Those. The router keeps the wifi speed well, does not cut. 2. IPTV in HD quality shows without delay. Video in HD on two computers at once - also without delay. 3. Simple settings on custom firmware in 2022. I set it up once and then it works without failures - set it and forget it.
Cons
  • no flaws

Purchase failed, very dissatisfied.

After the martyrdom of my old D-Link DIR-300, which had been plowed for more than seven years, I decided to purchase this router. Internet provider - MIPT-Telecom (Dolgoprudny). Connection via dynamic ah pi. So I couldn't get it to work. The router does not receive an IP address from the provider. Accordingly, there is no Internet. The actions that I performed with it: I tried to connect via PPTP, changing the IP address of the router due to a possible conflict of addresses, cloning the poppy…

Pros
  • Looks beautiful. 300 MB.
Cons
  • One big drawback.

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A practical product, nothing to complain about.

I have been using it for over 3 years. Before that, there was a tp link 300, it served for more than 5 years. All three years, there were no problems at all. As I set it up when buying, I didn’t touch it anymore. Easy setup (beeline provider). And so the adventure began . a couple of weeks ago, after more than 3 years. He began to live his own life. The connection was broken for 1-2 minutes, then it turned on itself and this was 3-5 times a day, sometimes the connection did not appear, only a…

Pros
  • ease of setup, design
Cons
  • short service life

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

Quite a good router, I can’t say that it’s cheaper to find a similar one, I use it for 1 day, I load it as best I can (PC Laptop Netbook hangs two tablets and telf) laptops constantly eat tablets from time to time to synchronize well, and still the Internet does not freeze for anyone. The result is if you need a good router with quick setup, take it. I set it up for the Hong Kong provider UCANET (ooo fastnet) it turned out that I inserted the wire and that's it.

Pros
  • Pain is less affordable, the price is quite easy, the distribution range (as I understand it, you can still configure)
Cons
  • Many people write that the antenna is not removable, but for me it’s not a minus. The router was bought together with the laptop, because the PC just had a wire and that’s it, but the laptop needed Wi-Fi, and through the initial setup (via the disk) it wasn’t possible to set up the waffle, more precisely the laptop is weird, I think because the netbook tablet and the telf network saw it.

Before that, I used the Kinetic Light router from Zyxel. Belenky, first generation. It seems that everything was as it should be, but . The button (lever) for switching Wi-Fi was really missing and I wanted to try the n standard in full. Therefore, the choice fell on this model. Took almost for free - 900. Set up easily. I immediately ated the firmware. (When ating the firmware, the settings are lost, so before you sew, make a backup of the settings). On the wire, there are no noticeable…

Pros
  • - everything works as it should - the price is amazing
Cons
  • - not revealed yet (I hope not)

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

If you are still thinking about buying an inexpensive and high-quality router, I advise you to buy this one. For 3 weeks I have not a single glitch. As for 2 antennas of 5dbi, I doubt very much that they are of such power. The signal is slightly better than that of the D-Link DIR300 or Netgear WNR 612, which have one antenna of 2 dbi. So, in terms of amplifying the wi-fi signal this model will not fit.

Pros
  • Easy setup. Speed ​​over the wire does not cut. With 100 Mbps torrent download 10.9 Mb via wire. (VPN pptp connection) Wi-fi signal is good. In the yard at a distance of 50-70 meters from the window of the 5th floor, the signal is normal. At home, at a distance of 5-7 meters through 2 walls, the signal is normal, unless of course there is a weak wi-fi module on the tablet or mobile. It works without failures and glitches. The power supply and the router itself are almost not heated.
Cons
  • On wi-fi, I have not seen a speed of more than 50 Mbps (the tariff is 100 Mbps), although the maximum setting is 300 Mbps in the settings. I checked it on 2 mobile phones. It is possible that the mobile phones themselves do not have the most powerful wi-fi modules. It is also possible that the native firmware cuts the wi-fi speed. I did not change it.

I like everything, the price and quality are acceptable.

I am a blonde, with not very high intelligence, but I was able to set it up on my own (in about 20 minutes) without much difficulty. The instruction is in 2022, just for me (I don’t know foreign languages ​​​​at all). I am glad that there are pictures, since I am not a good PC user! I especially want to note the design, it is simply amazing. We live in harmony with him. and right now, my dear, he winks at me and says hello to you too. Hello!

Pros
  • Graceful design; ease of setting; does not heat up, despite the work without rest and shutdown; does not lose signal; speed does not eat (not hungry apparently)
Cons
  • Don't kiss goodnight!

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

I'm not an expert, so I thought that the router would be difficult to install, but it turned out to be quite simple. The installation turned out to be intuitive, everything connected easily and worked, even through a wire, even through Wi-Fi. For more than a year, there are practically no complaints, literally lost connection several times, so I had to restart.

Pros
  • Price, ease of connection.
Cons
  • It very very rarely loses connection.

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

At the time of writing this review, 97 days of continuous operation without rebooting. Home network of two machines via LAN + laptop via wifi. There were no problems with opening sites, reliability of connections in games and downloads in 300 streams. WiFi in 11g mode (the old laptop only supports it) quietly breaks through two walls and is available from anywhere in the apartment even with an average signal strength (adjustable in the settings). Perhaps in higher speed modes everything will…

Pros
  • Works stably, easily keeps many connections at high speed, supports VPN/L2TP and several popular DynAmazon services, price
Cons
  • Ridiculous need to restart the router when changing wifi settings; only 100Mbps on LAN ports is not enough

A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

Who does not hold the load under torrents, in the web interface with the settings: 1) Security->Basic protection settings - turn off everything; 2) Security->Advanced security settings->Advanced security settings->Disable. Some of this is superfluous, but the problem with freezing under load was solved for me. For example, protection against DoS attacks or filtering based on content is, after all, an analysis that requires more computing power. Otherwise, there are no complaints about the…

Pros
  • Price, GNU GPL, quality
Cons
  • In description

Bad! I am not satisfied with the quality of the product.

I use two, versions 9 and 13. Versions are indicated on the sticker below. The case when newer is worse. From the 13th revision, we switched to Mediatek chips and this is a nightmare - the devices are buggy, they freeze several times a day. The 9th version was easily flashed through the interface on DD-wrt, later on OpenWRt and began to work more stable, the 13th is sewn with OpenWRt tambourines, there is no DD-wrt on it, and there is no point in sewing, the iron itself is crooked, like other…

Pros
  • Cheap, external antennas, cold, the ability to mount on the wall, easy to set up on the network a bunch of instructions.
Cons
  • Depends on the revision of the iron, will be in the comments - Often freezes, not all versions are flashed without a tambourine, rare ates of the official firmware.

I can't stop being happy with the purchase, a very good deal!

The best router for its time. One has been working for 10 years and he is doing well. The other one worked for a year, then there was a fire, everything was completely black in soot (both outside and inside), including the router, but he doesn’t care. I rubbed it with a cloth and it worked for another 2 years) now it just started crashing. Today it is already obsolete.

Pros
  • Drop dead router, ultra cheap and reliable
Cons
  • - When you connect a lot of devices (about 8), it starts to get stupid, some devices fall off and do not connect. Especially in conditions of strong interference from other networks (in the evening) - As a solution, I wanted to set up 2 routers to work together but could not. As a result, I had to make sure that 1 router distributed the Internet to the second via Wi-Fi, and the second distributed a separate network to the second half of the devices. In general, the result was a system with dubious efficiency and poor reliability.

The product is really good, I'm glad I bought it.

I bought this model, although I originally drove for 841ND with removable antennas. I thought to replace with more powerful ones. But this one came first and it was quite cheaper. And today I watched a video about setting up a router and there was a smart idea. WiFi works in two directions. And the router can and will finish your phone through two walls, but the phone will not break through two walls back. Therefore, a powerful router is good if you take a signal from another router. I like…

Pros
  • price quality
Cons
  • sometimes the internet drops out

The router pierces confidently distributes over the entire area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe apartment and perfectly pierces through 2 walls. In a room with actually three load-bearing walls (and a balcony), not everything is so positive, there are "blind" zones, but such bunkers are rare. Occasionally rebooted the first week or two after the purchase, then it began to work absolutely flawlessly. A netbook hangs on the router, 2 start phones and a tablet via wi-fi + a large computer and infrequently a…

Pros
  • Price, signal strength, easy setup
Cons
  • Minor difficulties in building a mixed type network (wi-fi + lan)

Not a bad buy, well worth the money.

Bought over a year ago, set and forget. Today I bought a Zuksel Kinetics Extra 2 to replace it, I fell for the reviews in the market, what was my surprise that the TV in the other room via Wi-Fi began to load the video worse than the tp-link! Despite the fact that the zuksel costs 3-3.5 In general, I will return the new router to the store, but I will leave the old one for now. Apparently you need to look for something much more expensive, so that some kind of difference would be noticeable.

Pros
  • For this price, one solid advantage
Cons
  • Occasionally hangs, not critical. I would like a stronger wifi signal.

No joy in buying the product, it's not good.

I bought this hyped tp-link instead of d-link 615. I really needed the ability in the router to limit the speed of the Internet on different devices, so I decided to change d-link. Installation and configuration did not cause difficulties, as I think others who have the necessary minimum knowledge. In short, I started testing the speed of the Internet and was disappointed. The speed through one wall is not higher than 3 Mbps. If in the same room with a router, then the speed is 30 Mbps. This…

Pros
  • Not
Cons
  • Very much cuts the download speed even through one wall.

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

This model is already the third in the family. The first served for 3 years, but was "killed" by a lightning discharge due to low-quality provider networks. I had to change the provider to having an optical network. The second copy also works flawlessly for over a year. Something about speed: practically does not cut the speed of both cable and WiFi. According to Speedtest. Net, the speed is 96-101 megabits per second (also over WiFi). For comparison: D-link DIR300 under the same conditions…

Pros
  • First of all, I liked the reliability. Unlike other devices, it does not reboot for a year or more.
Cons
  • The disadvantage may be a somewhat old-fashioned design. A black case with prismatic elements would have been preferable.
