PROS : Good Range, ADSL Modem + WiFi Router, Optimum price for a 300N Modem + Router, Stylish Looks, Security Options
CONS : USB Speed 2.5 MB/s max
Searching for a ADSL + WiFi router to get rid of the basic ISP provided modem & wires at my home and also to enable multiple access to my MTNL Broadband Connection so after searching zeroth down to this one.
Setup :
A bit tricky to setup at one go as the configurations are a bit more segregated(on diff pages) as compared to other routers but if you have configured Routers before it would not be a problem.
Strange that you will get only the advanced Setting while setting it up through Default IP. For wizard you have to connect the CD.
Range :
Main concern for a WiFi router is the range and it didn't disappoint me in this aspect. Easily crosses 2/3 walls to covers my 1000sq ft house even when its currently placed at one end of the house. Easily able to to stream video to my Xperia PLAY even at the end of farthest room.
Features :
Have all the basic features like IP filtering, MAC address Binding, Firewall, WEP & WPA security also it includes options to setup guest networks, save profile settings for later use, different access privileges to admin, support and end user. have to explore more on this :)
USB :
A nice feature but the Data Rate(UP/Down) is restricted to 2.5 MB/s. It will not be much of a problem while accessing the data directly(Movies etc.) but copying takes a lot of time.
Overall :
A nice purchase for this price. Does perfectly what its intended to do.
