Conclusion

I am overall pleased with the TEW-611BRP router. The device was stable for three weeks of ordinary use through the tests and never hung up. So I recommend you the TEW-611BRP for its high stability in all operation modes and its excellent performance. It will suit well for use in a home or office network.

Highs:

• High performance of the wireless section (with adapters that support Atheros Super G technology)
• Increased coverage (with adapters that support Atheros MIMO)
• Supports WPA2 encryption with the strong AES algorithm and authorization on a RADIUS server
• Integrated VPN client
• Good firewall with support of SPI and DMZ; flexible traffic shaping setup (also by a schedule)
• Simple to configure
• Inexpensive

Lows:

• Low functionality of the IP and URL filters
• No terminal access to the settings; lack of SNMP support
• Cannot work as a print server (which is a popular feature of today’s SOHO routers)
