I have an older model TP-Link TD-W8960N - the older style case with not much ventilation.It has worked ok until recently when its started to become a bit slow and cranky - I think its probably overheated over a couple of summers in a rather warm room.As much as I would like to play with a Dual band router I suspect the layout of the house will mean the 5Ghz band might not be worth the extra money.So my shortlist has come down to either:

TP-Link TD-8960N (the current model appears to have some ventilation on the top now)

ASUS DSL-N12E_C1

The ASUS has apparently a low power mode that keeps it cooler and "5dBi high-gain antennas" as opposed to the TP-Link which has 3dBi - which I gather means better range from the ASUS.The problem is I just cant find much in the way of reviews for the ASUS.Anyone got one of these and how do you find it?
