Well, to make a statement about the speed can I had to first of all have such a fast line. Unfortunately I punish my provider with a thin 6000 line and can not even provide this capacity approximately. So I stick a meaningful evaluation in terms of speed guilty and can only say that the router is acting in direct comparison very fast with his predecessor.
The connections I would inscribedable as well. There are 2 USB ports for connecting USB storage devices or printers. Furthermore, an ADSL, 3 Gigabit LAN and a WAN / LAN4 ports are on the back to find.
The TP-LINK TD-W8970B a FTP and a media server has been set with the way in the cradle, which is also very positive. He also gets along with the IPsec VPN and IPv6 protocols.
In addition to the actual delivery router TD-W8970B, RJ11 phone cable, RJ45 Ethernet cable, Quick Installation Guide, CD with software and power supply are included. Connection problems due to a lack of cable I had not and therefore the case was ready for use quickly. Who is not sure when it comes to port, can watch on the supplied CD a little video. The configuration wizard was thanks pretty easy for me as a non-professional router.
I read here that some people arge difficulties with the configuration of the router for T-Online had. Although the establishment of access was at first somewhat bitchy, but with the approximate idea where it could be a problem, the problem was solved but then quickly.
An additional sign that I had entered at the login information, brought the desired relief. Apparently, the provider had the problem of splitting the digits chain accordingly in the application, and thus to recognize the individual blocks. The so-called hash marks (# character) before the co-user suffix was the solution to this problem. This I have entered in the appropriate field for the co-user suffix in the router and since the access works fine.
Generally you can enter the access to this scheme:
Anschlusskennung + Online Number + co-user suffix + @ t-online.de
However, in my current software version individual fields to enter are available, so that these cumbersome input is not required. How is that for older versions, is beyond my knowledge.
Conclusion:
Anyone looking for a solid router with good facilities, need to look at the TP-LINK TD-W8970B Wireless. Certainly, there are routers that offer even more features. Thus we need more money must usually be issued. The average Joe consumer is well equipped with the router. For me, the TP-LINK TD-W8970B is a real best buy, where I can expose anything negative.
