With 450Mbps Dual Band Wireless combined with USB sharing for files, media, or printing in addition to Gigabit ports, the TL-WR2543ND is the most robust networking foundation available, for work and play.
450Mbps Wireless Speed -- Experience Limitless Wireless

With three dual-band antennas, TL-WR2543ND generates a maximum theoretical wireless throughput of 450Mbps over the 2.4GHz or 5GHz channels utilizing a 3 X 3 Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) configuration. Compared with legacy 802.11n 300Mbps products, the router has the speed to provide advanced and stable 450Mbps wireless connections, allowing users to benefit from the full potential of their wireless networks.
5GHz Connections – Increased Stability and Performance

With the proliferation of devices working over 2.4GHz, wireless interruption has become increasingly obtrusive to wireless connections; from cordless phones, microwaves, automatic garage door openers, and don't forget neighboring wireless networks, this channel has become somewhat crowded.

TL-WR2543ND supports the establishment of a 5GHZ wireless connection for home networks at 450Mbps, transmitting data on the less crowded 5GHz band to avoid interference, to offer significantly improved wireless stability and overall performance.
Multi-Function USB Port

Sharing a Printer with Multiple Computers
It is no secret that printers are often difficult to use, simply because a computer often must be connected directly to it in order to print. With the TL-WR2543ND, users need simply connect the USB printer to the USB port on the back of the router and run the Printer Setup Wizard to access the printer to wireless print from anywhere in the home or office, from multiple devices.

Share Files & Media, at Home & Away
TL-WR2543ND allows users to attach a range of USB storage devices directly to the router, making it easy and conveniently for users to access their data locally or through the Internet with FTP server functions.

A built-in Media Server lets users share music, videos, and photos with the media player on their PCs, X-BOX 360s, PS3s and other compatible devices
Gigabit Ports - Incredible Bandwidth

With built-in gigabit Ethernet switch, TL-WR2543ND provides more powerful data processing abilities, eliminating bottlenecks in transferring speed between megabit wired and 11n wireless connections. Meanwhile, everything users do will be faster and more efficient, thus allowing for larger file sharing, such as high definition video, in minutes instead of hours.

IP QoS – Control Your Bandwidth

Within the wireless network, indiscriminate Internet surfing and bandwidth-guzzling downloads by internal users often leave home or small offices with insufficient bandwidth for crucial tasks.

TL-WR2543ND supports IP QoS (Quality of Service), allowing optimum utilization of bandwidth and offering bandwidth control over congestion, preventing bandwidth abuse. In this way, users of a small network receive committed and specific bandwidth, preventing non-critical applications from degrading network performance.

Only £49.99 inc VAT.

clearly not, TP-Link have always been a value brand, but they are heading more and more into high end product every week.

It has been surprising how much of their new product range for 2012 has been aimed at the enthusiast and power user.
 
Looks great, would it be possible to attach a USB hub to connect more than 1 USB External HD?

It says on their website:

•USB 2.0 port convenient for network-connected users to share files through the device’s FTP server

Surely the data could be accessible using samba/CIFS or similar wouldn't it?
 
Will you guys be getting the red top one that uses both frequencies (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz)together?


edit: First question removed as their is no ADSL version.

My router died last week, but Id rather save my cash and let my dad buy a replacement through sky (no support from sky if you buy your own router, and its my dads account and he needs the tehnical support.

I couldnt do anything to fix it, and neither could Sky do anything from their end other than have me try different microfilters, so they and I are certain its bust.
 
Just out of interest, even though this is compatible with Cable. Could I in theory connect this router to my (ADSL) sky router via the Ethernet port and bridge it, allowing my wireless devices to talk to the internet via the TP-Link router?

Yep as long as your sky modem/router can be set up as such or even better run in a modem only mode.
 
I can just disable the DHCP function on the Sky router, just need to establish if the maximum throughput of 450Mbps is overkill. The main benefit is the dual band, I just want to be able to stream 5 to 7GB MKV's over the wireless.
