Hi all....finally took the plunge and ditched the rubbish Hg633 super router and got a TP Link TD W9980 N600 from PC World £53. Works perfect and my wired speed is up slightly to 36 ..37 but the massive improvement is in the wi fi speed...up from 19 ish to 30!..... Yes 30! I have two iPads one iPhone one Samsung phone and one Windows laptop and all of them show a massive speed increase on wi fi. I am now getting decent speeds on wi fi which I was not using the talktalk 633 router. It wasn't to bad setting up once you manage to connect to the router settings page. Choose talktalk as provider but make sure you select vdsl not adsl. Then the rest is all done automatically . I struggled to connect for a while then I realised in the diagrams the Ethernet cable was plugged into the third port lan3 and I had it plugged into the first lan1. I don't know the difference but as soon as I did this it connected to the Internet ! I used the set up wizard on the cd on my laptop to install . Then just used wi fi password on router to connect all my wi fi devices.Best £53 spent ever. My Amazon Fire tv stick on wi fi is now not buffering . Why talktalk can't sort out their own router wi fi speed is a mystery!
