Router for broadband + phone

[vivek.virgo]

I need a basic router for my bsnl broadband + smartphone to replace the one provided by bsnl .
Don't want to spend too much!

Came across TP-LINK TL-WR720N 150 Mbps Wireless N Router for Rs 745

*www.flipkart.com/tp-link-tl-wr720n-150-mbps-wireless-n-router/p/itmdgzk55c3nzbhw


Will this be sufficient for heavy downloading with max speed of 4mbps as per my bsnl plan?
I don't know anything about networking hardware so please confirm if I can use above router with bsnl on my desktop PC.

First of all you need an ADSL modem to connect to the internet and if you want WiFi then you need a ADSL Modem cum Wireless Router.
If your ADSL modem is working fine and you just want WiFi then no need to go for a Modem Cum Router, only a simple wireless router would help, just like the one you have selected.
If you want to have a Modem cum Router then go for something like TP-LINK TD-W8968N Wirelesss router. This very model can work as an ADSL wireless router for ISPs like BSNL who provide connection through telephone lines and also as a simple wireless router for other ISPs.

modem needed if you are using bsnl/mtnl internet (RJ11 clip/port), check TP-Link WR740N 150 mbps router with modem.. I'm using it.. really good for small room.

Thanks for explaining

Any cheaper alternatives to W8968 for replacing my bsnl-provided modem?
I see quite a few on flipkart but not sure about compatibility etc.
