  • Where did you use your voucher?

    Good price but it has a trendchip, so only good for short lines.

      If you're on a longer line (~2km+), go for the 8960N (msy has it for $44) which has a broadcom chipset. Runs great on my 3.7KM line.

      • Would the 8960N also work well if you are on a short line ?

        Or would it be better to take the model from the post if you are within 1km of exchange ?

        Do either of these models have DHCP reservation ?

        • I'd take the model in the post-trendchip chipsets will give you the best sync speed, so definitely good for <1km. Broadcom is better for long lines due to the higher stability.

          I know that the W8960N has dhcp reservation, and I'd say the 8961N almost certainly has it http://www.tp-link.com.au/faq-489.html

        • @donnot: Thanks

  • Can I use this just as a cheap access point?

    Plug a (live) Ethernet cable into one of the four ports (using it as input rather than output) and then use the wifi and the other three ports to connect devices.

    • Yes, it's all in the web interface (you can setup one of the ports to act as a WAN port).

  • …. deleted. Apologies
