Comprehensive Evaluation of TP-link TL-WR340G Wireless Router

With the development of China's routing industry, the market demand for wireless routers is also gradually increasing. Here we mainly introduce the TP-link TL-WR340G wireless router and evaluate it. In the home wireless router market, the Chinese brand TP-link is unknown, which not only relies on its low price, but more importantly, TP product positioning is very suitable for family users, if you do not have high requirements for wireless networks, you can buy a home with a bandwidth of more than one hundred yuan or about two hundred yuan. At the same time, it has an absolute advantage in terms of cost effectiveness.

It has been 12 years since the initial launch of TP-link products. During this period, the quality, performance, and appearance of TP-link products have been greatly improved, in this way, TP products are well received by consumers. Home-level wireless routers are generally divided into 54 M, 108 M, M, and M transmission rate. The higher the transmission rate, the higher the performance, of course, the price will also increase proportionally. At present, the 1 M and 2 M bandwidth used in the family is too large, so I think the 54M wireless router is more suitable for use, and many manufacturers are very good at this level of product quality. One of today's evaluation is TP-link TL-WR340G +, a 54M of the main household products. Careful netizens will ask: TL-WR340G + has been in the market for a long time to buy it? What's new? Good, TL-WR340G + as a classic TP model, received a lot of praise, but today the introduction of this in terms of appearance is very different, manufacturers bold for its replacement of the dress, make it look more distinctive. Next, let's get to know it again.

TL-WR340G + still uses the white ABS engineering plastic shell, each side is black. Although its overall design style is consistent with those of other TP-Link products, it is slightly smaller and more smooth at the edge of the product. The most distinctive is the middle of the top of the number of wireless routes. On the left of the top of the wireless router, the manufacturer boldly designs a radar-like circular assembly for it, there is also a large gap, which can ensure that the machine itself achieves a certain heat dissipation effect. The nameplate of TP-link is displayed on the right.

The front panel of this wireless route, the color of the logo indicator and product model indicator are in stark contrast with the fuselage, so that you can clearly judge the current running status of the router. The TL-WR340G + conforms to the 11g standard and provides a theoretical wireless connection rate of 54M and supports rate self-adaptation. Because this product is well positioned, it does not adopt "domain exhibition technology ". However, its standard antenna is upgraded from 2dBi to 5dBi, so its signal coverage distance is 100 meters indoors and 300 meters outdoors, which can meet the needs of most users. On the cable side, it comes standard with a 10/100 M Adaptive WAN port and Four 10/100 M Adaptive LAN ports.

The more important impact of failing to use the "domain expansion technology" on this product is its reduced power consumption. The maximum power consumption of this wireless route is only 4.5 W, and the same nominal 54M domain expansion technology wireless route TL-WR541G + power consumption reached 6.8 W. It can save 34% of power. The power consumption of a wireless route is proportional to the radiation intensity, so the radiation intensity of this route is also relatively small.

Through the Chinese configuration interface, TL-WR340G + provides a variety of management functions. You can manage systems, DHCP servers, virtual servers, DMZ hosts, static route tables, and UPnP. It supports MAC address-Based Access Control and provides Internet access permission management. In terms of wireless security, it supports 64/128/152-bit WEP data encryption and security mechanisms such as WPA, IEEE802.1X, TKIP, and AES.
