How to Set up Wifi at Home

[jut703]

Thanks! Coverage area is not an issue.

TP Link is available at PCexpress and they have several branches in Makati

Routers - Networking

Please select a model for me, sub 2k ha

Park Square 1 is a good place to look for cheap electronics. Not sure if they've started demolishing it already though

From PCX's price list, I'd recommend the TP-Link WR740N. It's the successor to my WR642G and already features 150 mbps Wireless-N. Basically, it has all the basic functionality you need from a router. It only costs 1.2k, too.

There's a higher-spec version of that, the WR841N, which features 300 mbps Wireless-N and wider coverage, for 1.6k. You won't be needing the 300 mbps wireless-N since local internet speeds barely reach 5 mbps for most folks. Since coverage isn't an issue either, there's really not much point in getting this unless you have plans of moving to a bigger residence in the very near future.
