I am planning to buy a wireless router.

Area to be connected: 1000 sq ft house, with router being placed in a corner bedroom, so I need connectivity through 2 layers of walls.

Devices to be connected: 1 Laptop, 1 Asus tablet, 1 Asus Netbook, mobile phones sometimes.

I am currently using Fivenet 1 Mbps unlimited plan, however I plan to upgrade to 10 Mbps unlimited in a few months. Also, Fivenet has an excellent LAN,with download speeds of 6-10 MBps being common on LAN.

I have considered the following 2 routers, however I am open to more suggestions.

Netgear N600 Wireless-N Dual Band - Costing $70 (Rs 3750) (Importing from US, if I buy this)

Specifications - NETGEAR - N600 Wireless-N Dual Band Router with 4-port Ethernet Switch and USB Port - WNDR3400-100NAS

TP Link WR1043ND - Costing Rs 3600 on Ebay India

Specifications - TL-WR1043ND - Welcome to TP-LINK

TP Link has a gigabit ethernet port, which Netgear doesn't. Is it an absolute necessity to get 10 MBps speed on LAN downloads?

Netgear is dual band, 2.4 Ghz & 5 GHz.

My budget is upto Rs 4000. Which router will suffice my needs?

mostly offtopic.


I am annoyed by the government’s attitude towards the JLP protests. It seems quite similar to how British Raj treated the protests by the Indian freedom fighters.

The government claims that the people on the roads have no right to take on the parliament which is supreme. I bet this was the same attitude shown by the British government.

Mahatma Gandhi broke laws during his protests (Namak Andolan anyone?). It was against the law. British government was not happy with it. JLP guys are from what I see are not really breaking any laws. They are just asking for something reasonable. Indian government continues to target the protestors as they are thugs.

Parliament might be supreme but it still represents the people of India. If the common man on the road is not happy with the happenings inside the parliament, it means that the people inside the parliament are failing to do the job they were elected for. It does not give them the supreme power to overrule the mandate of the people.

The fact remains… Indian government is behaving like the British Raj with the protests against their current policies. And criticizing them for the same does not mean that you are doing anything wrong. You are just demanding what is just and yours to begin with.

Slow speed problem solved now. All sites are opening too.
