Hi,

I bought TP-Link TL-WDR4300 last week, replacing the aging but still nicely working TP-Link TD-W8960N; which being used since Streamyx era.

In addition, I am also using 3x TP-Link's 8dB antennas, and TP-Link HomePlug TL-PA211Kit. The Huawei HG850a unit is at upstair's living area, and the HyppTV decoder and Panasonic SmartTV Plasma are at downstair's living hall. The HomePlugs work nicely in my setup.

Both 5GHz (11an) and 2.4GHz (11n) are enabled. Smartphone and laptop are using the 5GHz network. BTW, the 5GHz range is limited and the coverage is not as wide as the 2.4GHz. Wish it has more TX power.

I upgraded firmware version to 3.13.32 Build 130612 Rel.83937n, few hours ago.
The latest firmware updates add Maxis HomeFiber support.

Comments and wishlists.
1) More TX power, for wider coverwage.
2) VPN link feature which is available in TD-W8960N. At least. basic PPTP is enough
3) The LED's blinking indicators are not as 'accurate' as TD-WD8960N
4) SSH administration.
5) Performance wise, seem to be better than TD-W8960N and easier to configure.
6) OpenWRT and DDWRT firmwares are available for the unit, and hope someday I want to try them . For now, I am satisfied with the factory's firmware.
