Hello everyone
I am looking for a new wireless router and would be glad to get some advice on which model to buy.
A little overview-
I had a beetel 450 bx1 modem+router before which worked well. After renovating the home I needed more connectivity and thus decided to but another router and set it up as a wireless access point. After much research and after reading many reviews I bought tp-link 150mbps router hoping that its 5dbi antenna would provide better signal.
However it is barely able to transmit enough signal for about 30 feet to be catched by my phone i.e. Samsung I9000 Galaxy S.
I tried a netgear 150 mbps router and it is able to provide low but consistent signal at about the same distance.
Now I am looking for a new router. So I wanted to know-
Does a 300Mbps router also provide better RANGE ? I know it provides better speed but would I be getting good range as well?
If yes then these are the models I am looking at. Range is about 2k.
TP LINK 300Mbps TL-WR841N Wireless N Router | Router | Flipkart.com
(Not interested as disappointed with the signal of current tp link router. )
Netgear N300 WIRELESS ROUTER (JWNR2000) | Router | Flipkart.com
(Highly interested due to past good experience with netgear. But can lack of antenna be an issue? I dont want to buy a 300 mbps router which wont provide signal comparable to even 150 mbps router with antenna)
Cisco Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router | Router | Flipkart.com
(Looks quite cool. Cisco also has a good brand name quality wise I suppose. Is this model worth it?)
Looking for your opinions and tips. So that I can make the purchase ASAP.
Regards
