TP-Link TL-WR940N

$48.00 Released August, 2009

The Pros:Establishes solid wireless connections that do not drop. Range is extremely long, can reach a good distance away from the house. Setup is easy, facilitated by a well-designed wizard.

The Cons:Not able to scale down the coverage area, antennas aren't detachable as seen in the TP-Link TL-WR941ND. Throughput isn't very fast even when signal is excellent.

The TP-Link TL-WR940N is a wireless router designed for small business or home networking environments. This is the same as the TP-Link TL-WR941ND, but the antennas aren't detachable. The router is built to stand alone as the main network appliance, and uses 3 fixed directional antennas to cover a given area while compensating for interferrence.
