Good router for the price
by mertox on September 13, 2010
Pros: For the price this is a great deal. 802.11n will still max out the data your average internet user on DSL can use. Easy setup.
Cons: If you have the fasterest internet service then you might not get max speed since it caps at 150.
Summary: Someone wanting to make the jump to N without paying a lot, this is the way to go.

- Description: The TL-WR741ND is a combined wired/wireless network connection device integrated with internet-sharing router and 4-port switch. The wireless Lite-N Router is 802.11b/g compatible based on 802.11n technology and gives you 802.11n performance up to 150Mbps at an even more affordable price. Bordering on 11n and surpassing 11g speed enables high bandwidth consuming applications like video streaming to be more fluid. You can enjoy a high quality experience when video streaming, VoIP, or online gaming wirelessly, with traditional g products was never very practical, from anywhere in your entire home. Step into the 11n age with Wireless Lite N! When working with IEEE802.11n devices, the router provides robust and steady connections even at far distances from the router or existing obstacles in the way where normally 11G products would be weak and unstable. Better still, it's backward compatible with existing 802.11b/g products.
