TP Link TL-WR941HP Router Review:
The TL-WR941HP is a basic wireless router with a simple interface. The design is quite eye-catching, featuring three long 9dBi antennas.
You have a nice home screen that displays all of the status information about your routers, for example the number of clients connected and the internet connection. That’s pretty much all there is to it when it comes to a basic router.
The performance of this router is quite good, and I am particularly impressed by the wireless range that it offers. According to TP-LINK, this router is prepared with an independent amplifier for each of the antennas and can transmit at a maximum power of 1000mw per antenna.
There are a lot of cafes and restaurants where I can see TP Link TL-WR941HP router being used. Besides serving as an access point, the wireless can also serve as a wireless repeater, which TP-LINK relates to as a range extender (see below). Using my standard wireless configuration, I can achieve speeds of up to 90Mbps.
I believe I am able to do better, but the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports on TP Link TL-WR941HP router are restricting my ability to do so. It should be noted that this is still a single band Wireless N router, and as such should not be compared to a Wireless AC router.
Final:
To summarise, the TL-WR941HP is a capable entry-level router with a reasonable price. With the tri 9dBi antennas in this configuration, TP Link TL-WR941HP has an extremely long range. Assuming you have it in the proper location, I believe it is capable of providing wireless coverage for a large home.
Irish Mike –
I’ve had this router for about 2 year now. It still is going strong! Prior to this purchase, I had an ongoing problem with signal between upstairs and downstairs in my 2-story townhouse. This router has so far provided a strong signal throughout my house (~2000 sq ft). Also, I get great signal on the deck and into my backyard. Very nice! I use it with Apple TV to stream movies and it does great. I use ipad and windows-based laptops with out dropped connections or detectable declines in speed. Others that visit me have had no problems. I’m very happy with it and would definitely recommend for the money. The install was really easy. I had a linksys before that nearly drove me nuts with the lengthy, problematic install and increasingly frequent dropped connections. I will never by one of their routers again!
