"Awesome Router + Awesoome Looking...."

"Though product is reasonably priced with some advanced features like USB, prime functions of WiFi connection and stability ..."

"AMAZING ROUTER WITHIN LOTS OF FEATURES ........"

"Best Modem cum Router by TP-Link with great connectivity Range"

"Good modem router with stunning performance for the price"

"A decent ADSL2+ modem router for the price with some minor cons"

"The best router that I have purchased to date"

" Can switch to WLAN/fiber-net ISP whenever the need comes as the hardware and firmware supports it out of the box"

" It has no option for automatic channel selection, band connectivity is only 20, that reduces the speed when other electronic gadgets like Bluetooth or wireless headphones are used"

"have tried the product after fine tuning by technicians for my MTNL broadband this router is Working as of now flawlessly no problem whatsoever just go for it"

"The best router that I have purchased to date"

" The wifi coverage is a good 50 - 60 ft with walls in between, and I get coverage in areas in my home that never used to be covered by my previous routers"

" Especially for the selling price, this may the most cost-effective adsl router in the world"

"All together, this is an excellent router if you are a basic user and I recommend it"

"ie; for RJ11 phone cable connection like BSNL telephone connection, you can use it as modem plus router and for RJ45 type network cable connection like Hathway or Rajesh cable this device can be used as wireless router"

" Decent indication status using led lights on top of router"

"The router has many good features, but the Wifi is very bad, and the support is pathetic / non-existent"

" The 8968 wifi drops like a hot potato as soon as the phone call comes in"

" To be sure, we also connected via the cable and and tested with calls, and the internet connectivity was awesome even if the cordless phone was in use"

"3) Good wify range"

"I had an Asus RTN10E previously which is a powerful single antenna router with a very good range"

" The router looks good, it can be connected as a media server, it has a nice firmware also"

" In short, a good router for this price range"

"Best Router "

" At this price I believe this is the best wifi/ USB router available at market "

"This router is feature rich and really wanted to like it "

" Overall its working well"

"WiFi Range is Decent"

"I have changed my router to get better speed, perhaps i am getting a speed of 1 MPBS"

" My idea of comparing one company is even though the company is same, the user experience in setting up the 740N router is much more helpful with information available on the right pane for all pages, its not so in case of TD W8968"

" I liked single press WiFi off/on button"

"Sometimes connection gets disconnected even when router is working"

" In my house I have found the range is about radius of 20-25 feet, but proper positioning of router and antennas improve the range"

"(19.10.2015)The router is working fine as of now"

"Overall, this is a good router that does all the basics right"

"1)Looks:Router looks elegant in white colour and will definately leave a smile on your face in 1st look"

"I live in a typical 1BHK Mumbai flat and wifi strength is good through out the house"

" Once i reset the router, it will work fine for a day or so"

"Check the Hardware version of router first before buy"

" Bottom Line: Go for it if your want a decent router & not much worried about WiFi Range"

"My Recommendation: Go for it if you want to buy a feature rich router cum modem but not much worried about WI-fi range"

" For those who have purchased this router please check if their left socket of router is working and update in the review"

"Otherwise router is good"

"remember to work with cable internet like 5net and worldnet you need your mac reset or you can use (clone) the existing router mac to this"

"The was not any mention in the provieded documents about how to configure the CABLE INTERNET LIKE 5net / worldnet or with the port LAN/WAN"

"Overall best router in the range"

" TP Link support says that it is not unusual if the internet connection drops in case you are trying to access WiFi in the next room since the signal has to travel "through the wall""

" Infact I have placed my router right next to my 2.4 GHz cordless phone base and I see no interference"

" o my surprise the speed seems to be more stable on the wireless connection"

" These routers are just too easy to get started with and configure"

" Realy good & suitable router for home use"

"Though product is reasonably priced with some advanced features like USB, prime functions of WiFi connection and stability are not as expected"

" DSL + Ethernet Router and also USb support fro printer 3G dongle"

" He connected his router to my PC and it worked fine as my old router"

"Also, I still think that the router could have worked somehow and that I probably missed something here, but without any proper person to guide me I couldn't do much"

"Overall nice product"

" Also can be used a ADSL Modem + Router, Also can be used to make your 3G dongle to wireless and last but not the least can make your storage device available on wireless with user account privacy controls"

" For those all who are confused that will it work with their internet or not, this router will work with your normal DSL broadbands like the ones that BSNL/MTNL provides as well as the Fiber/Cable broadbands which Act/RailWire etc provide and this can even work with your CDMA Data Cards too"

"About the build quality, the router looks quite sturdy and has hell lot of vents to keep it cool"

"It comes with all essential as well as added feastures like Guest WiFi Netwrok if you have many guests arriving at your house"

"It has several green LEDs that shows the status of the router on top but I would have loved if it was in front"

" I've a plan of 8Mbps and the router gives around ~8.2Mbps U/L as well as D/L speeds both on WiFi as well as via ethernet cable"

" Though sometimes I have to restart the router to make it work but most of the times it works very well"

"The LEDs are on the top of the router so status of the internet cannot be seen if the router is placed somewhere above"

" A decent WiFi signal; accessible from both floors of my 800-square-foot house (the router being in the first floor and fairly at the center)"

"Overall a good buy"

"No problems in wireless connectivity,"

"Overall this product was perfect"

" The range of WiFi is good, better than my previous modem with single antenna, the build is good and its beautiful"

"Overall a good product"

" The router works fine without any rebooting"

" The range of the router is good but holds best for 2BHK house and that too not through thick walls"

"But even then if this is going to be your first router, then buy it as this is the only router which can work in all modes i.e"

" Just plug in and access usb in ur laptop via wifi (win key + R ,type this --> \\192.168.1.1 and enter)"

"It works as modem+wifi , router+wifi , 3g+ wifi that is cool for this in lower price"
