Pros:Good signalFast WiFiFast Gigabit |
I was torn between this, WNDR3700 and DIR-655 but gave this a shot because of the TEW-687GA that I have already had for my NAS, and it happens to be on special right now. Also, I was curious to see if they really matched well as they have the same chips.My brief test indicates the matched 450n hits 135.5Mbps tested by Lan Speed Test. 300n is over 100Mbps. Even in my bedroom 1 floor up had 70-80Mbps. Gigabit is over 350Mbps. I am limited by the hardwares I have so the potential speeds might be higher, I don't know.To be honest, $80 is about right for the speed and fewer features this router offers. For $130, I would probably go for the WDNR3700.
