Reviews of the TP-LINK TL-WR941ND Wireless N Router
-
CNET Review
The Good: Simple and responsive Web interface; easy setup; good performance and range; supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup; affordable.
The Bad: No N-only mode; mediocre feature set; bulky, dated design; no desktop setup application.
The Bottom Line: The TP-Link TL-WR941ND Wireless N router is a simple wireless N router with a friendly price. If all you require is a basic network and you have a mix of 802.11N and b/g clients, it does the job for cheap.

Review Summary: Who approved the firmware for release? A web interface that puts the important information in a frame that requires horizontal scrolling unless the screen is around 1900 pixels wide should have been sent straight back to the development team
