Favorable Comments from Some Media:
Australian PC World: Based on its (TL-WR642G) excellent wireless performance and low price, this is recommended router for every type of user. Its easy to set up and use and it showed stable performance throughout our test. PC Magazine: TL-SG2224WEB, TP-LINKs 24-port WEB Managed Pure-Gigabit Switch, high quality with competitive price, is awarded EditorsChoice: easy to use. In throughput test, this switch can realize 1000M all wire rate forwarding for the three kinds of data frames selected by us which are 64, 512 and 1518. It has very short forward delay that is within 3s when we try the above three kinds of testing frames in store-and-forward mode. This switch passed congestion control test smoothly. Even when there is some congestion occurred in some port, other ports can still work in a normal way. PC Magazine: We tested 7 enhanced 802.11g wireless routers, and took into account of their performance,function, as well as usability comprehensively. Finally, two models stood out, and became the products of our Editors Choice. Of which, TL-WR641G from TP-LINK gained a very high score, and won Editors Choice ultimately.

IT168: In 2006, TP-LINK was concerned by users much more than in 2005. The ration jumped from 26.2% in 2005 to 35.7% in 2006, increasing by nearly 10%, which showed clearly TP-LINK s rapid increase in the field of enterprise routers.TP-LINK stands top of the ranking for years. It s so popular in the marker of routers that nearly no other brands is able to compete with it in the near future. PC Weekly: Adopting the design of entire white fuselage from a South Korean designer, TL-WR641G of TP-LINK gives complete different outside impression. Equipped with practical XR technology, Firewall, and high compatibility, TL-WR641G offers a good choice for the users who require high transmission as well as stable network. PC3: TL-WR641G wins the "Design Award". It is the outlook design which differ from previous simple one that most impress me. It turns the only shortcoming of TP-LINK into advantage. Meanwhile, price is pretty attractive, only HKD299, while functions are far more than enough for family users. With 54G and 108M two models, more than one wireless upgrading choices are available. e-zone: TP-LINK is proven to be the best.To conclude from the 4 rounds of test, the TP-LINK TL-WR541G has won at an almost perfect score of 19 for its excellent performance in NAT efficiency, Wireless Connection, as well as the Materials used, Functions and Price. Advance PC: TL-WR641G,Stable Transmitting Performance.Though Super G is not a new technology, I was still surprised at the result after testing two models. During repeated tests around TL-WR641G by Chariot with same default, the throughput kept above 40Mbps. And the difference between Max. and Min. is less than 2~3Mbps. The performance is quite stable. With two barriers between and staying 5 feet away, the throughtput reached up to 36Mbps, which means the software and hardware are designed excellently. Downloading 20 files parallely with BitComet to proceed torturing test, and intervally having FTP transmitting, this product was still workable after 4 days testing. Considering the sales price and actual performance, I do think TL-WR641G is an excellent product based on Cost/Price and worthy to try by most of the players who have not enough in pocket.
