Hi guys. Just got the internet running in my new place and realised I need a wireless card as the broadband box is now far away from my computer rather than next to it.

I have found these two products on amazon and was wondering which would be best to get. My broadband is up to 17mb/s.

It's the 300mbps one and the N900 Wireless Dual Band one.

I have no clue about wireless networking so thought I would ask here.

Thanks in advance!

with your speed tier and the fact that the router only goes 300 go with the 300 tp link and save the money incase they ever go with AC then you use the savings to go with ac in the future (and if your speed tier increases). The n900 is nice but as previously posted without the router having dual band that is mute and with the router capped at 300 the extra 150 speed is mute)

Uhhh it's an EE BrightBox router I have the specs here:

4 x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports
1 USB 2.0 Host
Support PPPoE, PPPoA, RFC1483 Bridge
Traffic shaping (UBR/CBR/VBR)
OAM (I.610) F4/F5 support
Wireless IEEE802.11b/g/n
Wireless encapsulation WEP/WPA/WPA2
Wireless QoS, WMM (Wi-Fi Multi media)
WiFi Protected Setup (WPS)
Supports up-to 300 Mbps data transfer


I see at the bottom there it says supports up to 300mbps so I am going to assume I should just get the 300 one
