I did lots and lots and lots of research on all the models available in the sub-3K range, and the good ones constantly popping up were the d-link and the tp-link modems.
I decided to go with TP-link W8961- reasons being
1) Dual antenna - these are effective, and I am now getting signal strengths of 4/5 where I used to get 1-2/5 previously. These are through at least 3 walls.
2)No signal drop till now, this little wonder box has managed to hold onto the ADSL signal without problems.
3)Cost eff...

Awesome modem router for BSNL connections. I used to have terrible disconnections and weak network on Bsnl in my hometown, that’s when I decided to upgrade the router and try, below happened after the change.

> very easy setup - just need user ID and password sometimes VCI start value has to be added 0

We have a BSNL connection at home. when the provider given router was not working we decided to look for one that will be both a Modem as well as Wireless router.
After quite a few research we found this to have good reviews and to decided to try the same.
When we installed this router, we found this to be great.
* Easy to install
* Easy To Configure
* Good Wireless coverage

Moreover, we never realized that the provider was charging a monthly rental for the old one. After buying this Wireles...

Working Good.. Perfectly suitable for BSNL Connection

value for money

Value for money. Very good product. Gorgeous look, nice connection speed and Most importantly there is no pre defined web page. In some router modems the predefined webpage open in the first attempt when opening the web site through the browser. There is no such problem here.

Installation might be easy on windows , but if you are using mac or linux you might face some problems.
Before you start installation , make it clear in your mind what you have to do.
I started doing it on my own and faced problems, i even thought that i got defective product. but it was my mistake all the time.
Read some forums, guides etc before installing. sure the quick installation guide book will help but some settings and configurations are very tricky.
My ISP is MTNL so things that we...

I have been a traditional Netgear user for WiFi+ADSL routers since early 2005 due to their reliability and easy of setup. I considered buying the TP-LINK router to replace my previous old Netgear unit which died after 5+ years of use. Firstly the TD-W8961ND is a good value for money. Setup is relatively easy and works as good my previous Netgear DG834G. Though the unit has 2 x detachable antenna, I cannot comment for sure if these yield any strong signal across my 3 BHK apartment. To set it u...
