Hey guys,
My trusty old tplink TD vg5612 died and I'm after a replacement. I was told the vn020 is the updated model of it. Does anyone have one? Should it be able to handle 25 speed NBN if I wish to upgrade from 12/1?
Cheers

Hi mate,. Pretty sure it's fibre to the node
Do you have some better WiFi solution like mesh or something going on? Spending $80 odd bucks on a 2.4g N only router with only 100Mbit ethernet in this day and age is pretty rough
With such slow WiFi it might even munt 50/20 wirelessly (but be fine hard wired) but 25/5 should be ok on the WiFi.
I mean, this guy here is only $20 more and would be way better for your internal devices (still only 10/100 ethernet tho - and perhaps the reviews are bad? For only $20 more it looks like a no brainer, but maybe there's a catch I'm unaware of?)

That was literally from 10sec of looking on only Mwave's site, going from your link I went up the chain to routers, selected VDSL2 and AC WiFi and that was the cheapest one there
What type of NBN tech are you on? HFC, FTTN or FTTP?
The VN020-F2v is a fairly low end VDSL modem router, it doesn't have dual band Wifi.
only supports single band 802.11b/g/n 2.4GHz
there's also no Gigabit ports either so you're limited to 100Mbps on ethernet. https://www.tp-link.com/au/service-provider/xdsl/vn020-f2v/#…
as a drop-in replacement it is fine however the connectivity is a little lacking.
