    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    Amazon has the LT-ER5120 for $165. Good price for awesome router.

    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    How did you get the extra speed? I'd love to get 60+ mbps down out of my 50 down. Are you measuring the speed on the router or via a speed test website. By the way, I've got my port mirroring up and running. I ended up doing the mirroring on my Netgear switch rather than the router because...

    Looking for Smart Switch Recommendation

    I've got the Netgear ProSafe FS728tp. 24 POE ports (but only fast e) plus 4 gig ports. Highly configurable. L3 QOS, port mirroring, etc. You can find them for a very good price. My biggest complaint is that the UI is clunky and basically unusable unless you run an older version of Firefox.

    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    These two routers do seem to offer SMB-level performance/feature-set for pretty close to consumer-level prices. I was concerned that the documentation would be unhelpful, but I found it straight-forward and easy to understand -- especially compared to the manual for my Netgear ProSafe switch...

    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    Rather than have you demonstrate the flaw, would you please PM me a description of the flaw. If it affects my set up then I would like to know. Also, I would think that if there is, indeed, a flaw then the more of us who bring it to the attention of TP-Link the better.

    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    Yeah, I don't know. I haven't previously read anything relating to problems with security. Given that he didn't specify the issue and that this was his first post, I just a little bit skeptical. We'll see if he provides more detail.

    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    Gosh, that sounds pretty serious. Do you think you could tell us what the security flaws are? (With all due respect, posting something like that without any detail can seem a little trollish.)

    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    Thanks. But it's a little late. I installed the ER5120 last night. I totally agree that these boxes put consumer routers to shame. I've got a 15u rack with with 24 port POE switch, a server and a connection block. Had enough room to mount this bad boy. I had been reviewing the manual for...

    TP-LINK TL-ER5120 Multiwan Router (350MB throughput for $250) - Anyone use this?

    QoS Tipster/scoudi (or anyone familiar with this router): I am seriously considering this router to replace my aging DIR-655. I just tried a DIR-827 and it's simply too buggy. So it's either an Asus or perhaps this. As I posted I've got a pretty complicated set up . I don't need wireless...

    Recommendation for Router (complex network with QOS needs)

    I need some help choosing a new router. I have a pretty complicated network. From a LAN to WAN perspective, I'm probably not a terribly heavy user -- not a whole lot of gaming or video streaming. First and foremost, I'm interested in a router that will handle wired routing very well. I...
