I bought this some time ago so that I could connect my network to both of my ISPs (Shaw and Telus), together seamlessly and without a lot of headaches setting up some sort of PC-based router. It has been working well, though it does have a few idiosyncrasies.
Pros:
- WAN selection based on response time
- IP connection persistence and application persistence (I take the latter to mean protocol
- 3 VLAN configurations (isolates 0
- 1 or 2 LAN ports from the other(s)
- LAN port mirroring
- Firewall can filter by IP
- MAC address
- and domain
- ICMP
- UDP and TCP DOS attack
Cons:
- Terrible English translations on some configuration pages
- Dynamic DNS automatic update function does not work
- LAN ports are 10/100
- not gigabit
- Pointless serial port on the front panel (come on
- it's the 20th century already

Jury still out on this great value
I have been using this for about a month now. I seem to have to reboot every couple of days. I have this connected to two cable modems and then a wireless access point. All the devices in the network are wireless. I have anywhere from 2 to 5 to 11 15 devices on the network at any given time.

Great Value with multi-WAN ports
I used this in my small office with three of my colleagues, we have two Internet provider accesses so I bought the TP-LINK multi-WAN router, so far it works stable and never down with the TP-LINK switch !! And also I called TP-LINK hotline for help, they are very patient and full of passion !!
Pros:
- multi-WAN ports with load balancing strategies
Cons:
- the port is 10/100M
- not Gigabit...

Better than any consumer router!
I was having issues with my Asus N64 router at home. We had 10 devices connected and it slowed right down and was sometimes barely usable. I decided to take a look at enterprise router and thought this one looked good so I went for it.

Excellent.
Excellent - we've plugged both routers in to it and it levels the internet equally throughout the office we've also noticed a marked improvement in speed. With the added advantage of when one of the routers goes down it re-balances so we still get juice. 5 star!
