Looking for a new DHCP server (this is the Fritz box 6360 a horror) at the same time as an access point for the wireless network can act, I'm on the best wireless router - the WR841N - hit. After initial difficulties, to configure the router, the configuration is written incorrectly and you have to reset (here it seems problems with various. Browsers admit configuration via Chrome impossible [same problem also exists when WR710N]), the configuration was last saved and the router could begin service. The configuration options using the original firmware is limited to the default options. Merely static routes and clear NAT settings are something that the router of another, priced models differ. However, the router was occasionally unstable. To set the Wi-Fi connection in part for 2 seconds (2.4 Ghz, own AP with its own subnet [DHCP on the WR841N], Gateway on another subnet, NAT / PAT router for [FritzBox 6360]) On the web you can find some people with similar problems. They said that one should return the router. However, I was very satisfied to the disconnections. The wireless receiver is in the house [detached] throughout in good range, the wireless range is so good. So I've decided to upgrade to OpenWRT (a Linux distribution). This is certainly to be recommended only for experienced users, because foundations are required in networks and Linux. After configuring the router (this runs in all browsers), the router was able to start operating and running since the fullest satisfaction. The scalability of OpenWRT is also to be emphasized, because there may be many packages (features) be installed. In summary, I can say: - The router is well equipped - The Wi-Fi reception is satisfactory (2.4 Ghz) - With the OpenWRT router is very stable
For the price the unit is recommended in any case.
