It has all the latest standards like G.INP (be sure to get the V2 model for these, as V1 does not support them) and is a breeze to set up, taking me less than 10 minutes. I'm using mine with BT Infinity 2 and it works perfectly connecting at the same speed as my BT Smart Hub - which had to go, as after EVERY firmware update it crapped out and had to be reset to factory, set back up, etc.; I was done being a beta tester for BT! My old BT OpenReach modem acted as a backup for a short while, however it is too old to last much longer, doesn't support the latest standards and I can't get line stats... I use the modem in 'bridge' mode (see instructions in product description) connected to my firewall, and with the wireless disabled (which I never intended to use), so I can't comment on the wireless functionality. I have the Smart Hub set up as my wireless access point instead, and in this regard it works very well. I did notice that this has a lot of security functions like built-in firewall, wireless guest network, and SPI, but I don't need these; nice to see though. I can get line stats fairly easily by connecting my laptop to one of the free LAN ports on the modem, and it wall mounts. Frustratingly, since I won't be using the wireless, I can't easily remove the antennae as they are moulded, and just get in the way. It would be great if these could be detached without tearing the thing apart, but since I don’t want to invalidate the 3 year warranty I’ll have to live with it - for 3 years at least! Still 5 stars though, as all things considered, this is a fantastic bit of kit that fits my needs more than adequately. I hope you found this review helpful! Update: MY set up above may confuse. For a typical home set up, you don't need any additional equipment, it will serve fine as your modem, firewall and wireless access point, just like a BT Smart Hub. I believe this is the default set up mode too, so should be easy to configure. Review: Surprisingly good for a basic router - I needed a new router to check out broadband problems I was having, as I tried to work out whether the issue lay with my old but expensive router or the antique and fragile copper my supplier pretends is suitable for the 21st century. I wasn't convinced it was the router, so I opted for the cheapest unit I could find, sure that my test would lay the fault at BT's door. I was wrong, and found that the new router not only returned data rates to where I thought they should be but exceeded my previous best figures. This is an impressive bit of kit, and given my previous router cost over Β£200 I was delighted to have got away with spending so little to replace it. Setup was a doddle. I just copied the settings across from the old unit and had it up and running within 10 - 15 minutes. It's got most of the important bells and whistles of the old one, so I can tie the MAC address of particular devices to an IP address or open up ports so that my IP phone works properly - though admittedly that took me a while to work out. Sure, the software interface could be a bit better, though if you wanted to you could flash a different firmware to the box. But you'd have to be pretty demanding to have to go that far. The wifi works well, there are four network connectors, and it even looks good! I probably wouldn't have bought this if I'd known I needed to replace my old router, imagining that I'd need something more expensive. That lack of certainty has worked in my favour, saved me a bit of money, and meant I've ended up with a very capable piece of kit. ## Features - All-in-one: VDSL2/ADSL2+ modem, NAT router and wireless access point in one device provides a one-stop networking solution - Wireless and speed up to 300 Mbps makes it ideal for heavy bandwidth consuming or interruption sensitive applications like online gaming, internet calls and even the HD video streaming - USB Port for storage sharing, printer sharing, FTP server, media server and UMTS/LTE (3G/4G) modem sharing - Easily setup an encrypted security connection at a push of WPS button - Guest network access and parental control provides restricted Wi-Fi access for guests or children sharing your home or office network ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B013OXVA6M | | Antenna Location | Gaming | | Antenna Type | Fixed | | Best Sellers Rank | 25,414 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 9 in Modems 207 in Routers 812 in PlayStation Legacy Systems | | Box Contents | TP-LINK 300Mbps Wireless N USB VDSL/ADSL Modem Router; Cables included: LAN (RJ-45), Phone (RJ-11); Power Adapter; Quick Start Guide | | Brand Name | TP-Link | | Colour | White | | Compatible Devices | WIRELESS | | Connectivity Protocol | Wi-Fi, Ethernet, DSL | | Connectivity Technology | 802.11b, ethernet | | Control Method | App | | Controller Type | Ios | | Coverage | Extensive coverage | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (1,192) | | Data Transfer Rate | 300 Megabits Per Second | | Frequency | 2.4 GHz | | Frequency Band Class | Single-Band | | Global Trade Identification Number | 06935364092542 | | Is Modem Compatible | Yes | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 19.5L x 13W x 3.6H centimetres | | Item Weight | 2 Grams | | LAN Port Bandwidth | 10/100 Mbit/s | | Manufacturer | TP-Link | | Manufacturer Part Number | TD-W9970(UK) | | Maximum Upstream Data Transfer Rate | 300 Megabits Per Second | | Model Name | TD-W9970(UK) | | Model Number | TD-W9970 | | Number of Antennas | 2 | | Number of Ports | 4 | | Operating System | Proprietary Router OS | | Other Special Features of the Product | WPS | | Product Warranty | 3 YEARS | | Security Protocol | WPA2-PSK | | Voltage | 220 | | Wireless Compability | 802.11n | ## Product Details - **Brand:** TP-Link - **Colour:** White - **Compatible devices:** WIRELESS - **Connectivity technology:** 802.11b, ethernet - **Frequency band class:** Single-Band - **Model name:** TD-W9970(UK) - **Recommended uses for product:** Gaming - **Special feature:** WPS - **Wireless communication standard:** 802.11n ## Images ![TD-W9970 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71KECB61B7L.jpg) ![TD-W9970 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41EekNAW2pL.jpg) ![TD-W9970 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/514EqsNumvL.jpg) ![TD-W9970 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5164E-jBQmL.jpg) ![TD-W9970 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/513jBa99iUL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this work with Nigerian networks** A: it's universal ADSK/VDSL router so it should work. **Q: Does it work with fibre optic cable?** A: TP-Link AC2800 does work with both FTTC and FTTH. I have fibre to the home, the fibre optic cable comes inside the house and connects to a fibre optic modem supplied by my ISP. The modem then connects via a CAT6 cable to the WAN port on the AC2800 Router. My connection is 1000mbps upload and download and this router manages around 500mbps constantly over 5GHz WiFi even with several devices connected. Works well through walls too. **Q: Hi, Can this be used as Bridge?** A: Wireless Ethernet bridge no. It can be used a bridging modem between a VDSL2 line and an Ethernet modem though. In that mode the wireless is of no use. **Q: Can I use the TP Link N300 Outdoor Access Point with the TP Link AC1900 router that I current have to improve Wi-Fi coverage in the garden?** A: Sure, it will. And the TP-Link N300 Outdoor Access Point is compatible with any routers.

Yes, this is possible - although it turns out that you need to press a tiny black switch at the back of the gadget, which is next to another tiny black switch which can be easily pressed instead if you aren't looking carefully at what you are doing! (The other one is called WPS\RESET.) The router itself works fine - I am not sure if it is faster than my previous TalkTalk Super Router though. I have just done a test at 11.20am on 13-12-2016: the download speed was 827Kb (0.8Mbps) and the upload speed was 2.1Mb (2.6Mbps). This was on the fixed line internet, not wi-fi. The router itself was a doddle to set up - only took a few minutes and it did all the work itself. All I had to do was provide the wi-fi password. The router is about 20cm across, 13cm front to back, and about 3cm high, plus the 17cm high antennae which can be angled around. One unexpected plus is that it can be fixed flat to a wall, which will get it out of the way, although the leads supplied are not particularly long so it would have to be in a similar place to where it is on the desk at the moment. It has a little row of green lights at the front to show you what is working, although they are very small and you almost need a microscope to see what is what. I have only had the router for a few days so can't really give a true report about it, but at the moment it seems to be efficiently connecting to the internet, which is really all I expect from a router. I have given it 4 stars because its speed is not overwhelmingly fast, but I think that is probably because of dodgy phone lines and not the router's fault, so it probably really deserves a 5. ## Frequently Bought Together - 300Mbps Wireless N USB VDSL2 Modem Router - TP-Link ER605 V2 Wired Gigabit VPN Router, Up to 3 WAN Ethernet Ports + 1 USB WAN, SPI Firewall SMB Router, Omada SDN Integrated, Load Balance, Lightning Protection - TP-Link Omada Hardware Controller | SDN Integrated | PoE Powered | Manage Up to 100 Devices | Easy & Intelligent Network Monitor & Maintenance | Cloud Access & Omada App (OC200) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/48789059-td-w9970](https://www.desertcart.be/products/48789059-td-w9970) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
