Conclusions
As we found in previous reviews, TP-Link’s range of routers offer a compelling range of features and a great user experience at fantastic value for money. The TL-WR1043ND 300 Mbps Ultimate Wireless N Gigabit Router reinforces our view and indeed further enhances our opinion of the brand thanks to the addition of a true 802.11n router. There may not be all of the bells and whistles you find on more expensive routers, but for high speed, no-nonsense wireless networking that comes at a fantastic price, the TP-Link TL-WR1043ND should be at the top of your list.

Just wondering if the power supply is Internationally supported?
i.e. 100-240volts?
Just checked now and looking at mine thats exactly what it says: input:100-240v~ 50/60hz 0.6A
output: 12.0v 1.5A
Hope that helps
Cheers

Did you buy it in Canada or the US?
No word on USB file transfers or other USB functionality?
First one I received had issues dropping my AT&T DSL line every 5-10 minutes… sent it back and waiting for the replacement. Range was good when it worked.
This was with factory and DD-WRT firmware/
Mine does the same thing- one second works great, then nothing! AND very frequently, like you said, every 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately mine is beyond returning- please tell how it works out for you. Thanks!
Hi
I had a hard time setting up this router with ATT DSL. Do you know what you had to setup to get this working in the first place?.
Thanx in advance
Do you think it will ever be possible for someone to release a home wifi router which doesn`t require a reboot every couple of days, or will actaully stay connected for a period of time?
Im in the market for a decent dual band N router, but I refuse to budge from my ancient Dreytek Router and Netgear Wireless-G Access point, simply because everything else I try is SO Unreliable!
I`ve tried Several Belkin and Linksys "N" products – all required constant rebooting in order to work. Why do we continue to suffer from such crappy home networking products?
if your after one that doesnt drop out or need rebooting…try the Belkin N1 series…had mine for 2yrs now and no dropouts and i only turn it off once a week (when not in use)…you dont need to get the vision model just the N1.
wireless routers are very necessary nowadays because we do not want so many wires running around the home ~~~
can you bridge the tl-wr1043nd
mine drops connect tried everything ddwrt all settings 🙁 frustrating i don't get 300 only 150 also very disapointed
Stop blaming the router and learn to configure it properly.
How do you set up the TL-WR1043ND as a wireless access point
