I prefer Asus routers to any. Solely cause of performance, features and reliability. |

Is Asus really good? Asus and TPlink were two options I was looking at before going ahead with TPLink because I was not sure about the service and ease of configuration for Asus |

........ There are quite a few options, and TP-LINK TL-WR841N (N300 type) and D-Link DIR-600M (N150 type) seem to have the most number of reviews. I'll probably pick one of these two...... |

Well, I didn't change them to '12345' & 'password' so no dunce cap for me.:D I have a sharp-ish memory and near-OCD for complex passwords. I just wanted to be sure I haven't missed any of the obvious or hidden stuff in the setup menus. |

Ended up buying the TP-Link from Amazon. Browser-based setup was quick and easy to configure. Today's unscheduled WFH also gave me a chance to give it a sustained test run (it's been ON continuously for 14+ hours now) and it seems to handle extended hours well. My input Hathway line is 50 Mbps, and I'm getting 40 Mbps almost everywhere in my compact house. Serves my needs well and seems VFM @ INR 1078.clap: Another question for the geeks: I've changed both the admin console username/password and SSID/password combinations. Left most other settings at default, including SSID broadcast ON. Am I secure enough or should I be doing something else? |

Guys, can the experts recommend a good wifi repeater or a booster. I get good signals across the house except for my room. I have a 50 Mbps connection at home. |

If only your devices use the router, see if the MAC address based filter can be configured? |

...... Another thing you could do is choose an unused (by other networks around you) channel for the WiFi Router. Won't have conflicting networks around, and will improve connectivity. |

I fortunately don't seem to have channel crowding issues around my apartment right now, but definitely noted for the future. |
