TL-WA901ND Access Point 04/30/2014
This review is from: TP-LINK TL-WA901ND Wireless N300 Access Point, 300Mbps, Multifunction, Multiple SSID
Pros:
Easy to use GUI and easy to configure regardless of your technical knowledge.
Cons:
I have had the product nearly 6 months and it is an extremely unstable AP! Requires frequent reboot / power cycles when Access Point locks up and becomes unresponsive. Even with ping watch dog feature enabled, it is extremely unstable.
This is a common problem, and I have spent countless hours reconfiguring and trying different settings to try and stabilize this product. Changing from b/g/n mode to b/g mode is the only way I have found to stabilize the wireless network using these access points. I am down to one reboot per week, but if I wanted a wireless g access point I would have bought one. Sacrificing bandwidth to stabilize the network is not an acceptable solution.
Overall Review:
Already have replacement AP from a different manufacturer on order. It can't be any worse than the TP-Link. I have other TP-Link products and do not have any problems. I will only avoid their access points.
