^I hope you have read that.



N13U should cover it. But with good or fair signal, not a big deal though. No drops.



......if you don't upgrade to ddwrt.



Then forget P2P.
Why D-Link DSL-2750U and TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND are both modem cum router and can able to download torrent data, why should I forget P2P.

And is there any difference in wifi range of TL-WR841N and TL-WR740N, beside 300mbps and 150mbps respectively? Both are wifi modem cum router and having 700 bucks price difference but no USB. I have to use wifi for my laptop and mobile phone, thats it so for this 150mbps router is enough or not?

^Mbps does not decide wifi range :|

the antenna does...right?

D-Link DSL-2750U does not support p2p.

the TL-WR841N will have better range than TL-WR740N not because its 300Mbps but because it has 2 5dBi Omni Directional Antenna's,
this is the image given in tlinks site, its pretty misleading I believe

Okay, thanks dan4u! So, you mean TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND is the cheapest option for USB + torrent downloading in modem cum router?

@Mario
150mbps or 300 mbps wont matter too much unless you want to build your own internal network (tv pc phone tablet inter-connectivity etc.)
Explain internal network? I've to use only for laptop and mobile phone, sometimes two laptops.

Where did you read that TP Link supports P2P ?

Internal network meant WLAN = Wireless LAN. Greater than WLAN speed, faster the b/w intra-network devices.

Heard? Even better - experienced. With more than one model - all sub50$ cheapo ones.

Issues? Connection stability mostly, random restarts very rarely, etc etc.

Please don't start a flame war - these are my own experiences, yours may be better - in fact, I would be happy if your's is better :thumbs:

Increase your budget to around 4k, then you can expect some offering. That too you will mostly get only "routers", not modem+router combo. You can buy any simple ADSL+ modem under 1k or even in .5k if 2nd hand.

That is expensive and complicated for me and others who will use. I left the idea of USB router cum model. Now, I've to finalize a simple wifi cum router that emits high range of wifi signal. For this TL-WR841N looks fine, any idea how is it or any other option?

I guess you didn't read my post carefully. The above status is on stock F/W, i.e. before upgrading to ddwrt. After you upgrade, all the issues are resolved. But you loose the full 3 yr warranty.


Excuse me for butting in but won't the warranty remain safe if one can write the ASUS firmware back on the router.

I hope they cannot detect anything after one writes the latest firmware which the company supplies for downloads from it site.

Please share your comments, since I am interested in the same model but need concrete feed back from a user of the device.

Thanks

But where does it says that TL-WR1043ND can download torrents independently. I just browsed the TP Link site but it does not claims any such thing, or I am missing something???

Obviously you can revert back to stock F/W and save warranty (if it doesn't gets bricked, though chances are too less of that), but I just mentioned it for the sake of probable owners. :)

You should mention this man, the warranty issue was deal-breaker for me.

Yes, it has no USB feature but apart from this it is VFM and performance of wifi signals is incredibly outstanding. I'll order asap.

Also I can download torrents with some tab or phone and transfer to PC.
