What Laptop Magazine Award Winner

Windows official Magazine Award Winner

300Mbps Ultimate Wireless N Gigabit Router TL-WR1043ND is a combined wired/wireless network connection device integrated with internet-sharing router and 4-port switch.
It creates wireless network with incredibly high speeds of up to 300Mbps, which ensures that you are free to simultaneously enjoy multiple high-bandwidth consuming and interruption sensitive applications such as streaming HD video, making VoIP calls, sharing large files and playing online games.
Specially, it is equipped with a USB storage port on the back of the router for connecting USB storage devices to the network, for convenient resource sharing for everyone on the network.

Gigabit Ports - Incredible Bandwidth
With built-in Gigabit Ethernet Switch, TL-WR1043ND provides more powerful data processing abilities, which unleashes the full potential of the N-abled freedom, eliminating bottlenecks in transferring speed between megabit wired and 11n wireless connection.
Meanwhile, everything they do will be faster and more efficient, thus users are sharing large files such as high definition video in minutes instead of hours.

Wireless N - Extreme Speed & Range
Complies with the IEEE 802.11n standard, users can create a wireless network and get up to 18X the speed and 6X the range of conventional 11g products.
The router has the speed to work smoothly with almost any bandwidth intensive application including VoIP, HD streaming, or online gaming, without the lag.
Using its powerful N technologies, the router is also able to mitigate data loss over long distances and through obstacles turning your home and even your yard into one big hot - spot.

More Stable Wireless Signals
Signal Sustain Technology (SST) dramatically increases link robustness and throughput by simultaneously transmitting across three spatially-diverse signal paths, and incorporating information from three receivers simultaneously within the signal processing at the receiver.
Network connection drops greatly reduced, link robustness and throughput increased, achieves, on average, 50 percent greater sustained throughput at range than 2x2 MIMO systems.

Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) applies the existing WLAN listen-before-talk rule to the bandwidth needed for binding channels.
It automatically avoids channel conflicts using its clear channel selection feature and fully realizes the advantages of channel binding, greatly enhanced the wireless performance.

USB Storage Port - Portable Server
Centralizing an external storage device and file sharing is easy.
The TL-WR1043ND features a USB port that allows users to attach USB storage such as a flash disk directly to the router itself allowing any network connected users to instantly access the data on the disk such as enjoying HD video directly or sharing flies at will, just like a NAS (Network Attached Storage) system.

Quick Secure Setup
Compatible with Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS), TL-WR1043ND features Quick Security Setup that allows users to almost instantly setup their security simply by pressing the "QSS" button on the router automatically establishing a WPA2 secure connection, which is more security compared with WEP encryptions.
Not only is this faster than normal security setups but more convenient in that you don't need to remember a password!

IP QoS - Control Bandwidth Reasonably
Among the wireless network, indiscriminate Internet surfing and bandwidth-guzzling downloads by internal users often leave home or small office with insufficient bandwidth.
TL-WR1043ND supports IP QoS function, allowing optimum utilization of bandwidth and offers bandwidth control over congestion, preventing the bandwidth abuse.
In this way, the users of a small network receive committed and specific bandwidth, preventing non-critical applications from degrading network performance.

Easy To Use
Even novice users can easily setup their networking products.
The device comes with a CD with an Easy Setup Assistant that leads you through the setup process step-by-step, and even helps with wireless network settings and security configurations.
