I did lots and lots and lots of research on all the models available in the sub-3K range, and the good ones constantly popping up were the d-link and the tp-link modems. I decided to go with TP-link W8961- reasons being 1) Dual antenna - these are effective, and I am now getting signal strengths of 4/5 where I used to get 1-2/5 previously. These are through at least 3 walls. 2)No signal drop till now, this little wonder box has managed to hold onto the ADSL signal without problems. 3)Cost effective- does not cost a bomb 4)Easy to install- I was up and running in 15 mins- after a bit of tinkering- there is actually no need for the CD software provided. 5)Looks good- actually looks space age- kinda like Darth Vaders(Star Wars) lunch box. 6)No Heat problems- the tiny holes cut into the surface have actually enabed easy heat dissipation. Cant think of any cons till now- hoping that there won't be any incidents. All in all- a VFM product, that one can buy without hesitation. Do remember that if you are to choose 'THE BEST' modem out there- you could think of the Cisco's or Netgears but they cost a lot as well, this was also a criteria for my purchase. In case of damage, would I feel bad about replacing a sub 3k modem?- probably a lot lesser than replacing a 7K one :-)

Packing was amazing, thanks to seller RTPL. Product is genuine and comes with all accessories that are great quality. About the product, the WiFi range is available within 3 rooms of my house. Setup is simple and no need for the driver cd. Just go through 192.168.1.1 in your browser and click on 'quick setup'. The modem is bigger than my old BSNL modem. Quality of product is great. The antenna is non removeable (who cares). The version of modem is 6 and manufactured on feb 2016.
