    TP-LINK 1043ND vs TPLINK 8970

    My AP is always on, without it my wife's laptop downstairs (20 ft separated by 1 wall) cant get internet. With the AP there is no issue inside the house, and even outside to around 15 ft. I will try to do some measurements today and let you know.

    TP-LINK 1043ND vs TPLINK 8970

The wireless transfer speed depends on several factors like distance between the nodes, the wireless capabilities of each node, encryption etc. I dont think any brand has a significant advantage in this case. I suggested an...

    TP-LINK 1043ND vs TPLINK 8970

    Since you have already purchased the 8970 and if the wireless range is not upto expectations, configure an accesspoint (wired) at the desired location. You dont need a very expensive router for setting up an AP, a TP-Link 841N would do nicely. I have a TP-Link 4300 router as my gateway in my...

    Want to get a proper NAS or equivalent

    What I meant to say is that "The speeds over WiFi will be lesser than that you see on Gig Ethernet". This is because WiFi communication is half duplex only.

    Want to get a proper NAS or equivalent

    I am using Banana Pro and am getting the same speeds from a WD 1 TB Blue connected via SATA over wired Gig Ethernet. Your speeds will be slower on WiFi but much better than what you get with a RPi.

    TP-Link WDR-3600 will be enough for your purpose and it can be flashed to openwrt (AA) but it is slightly above your budget, around 4.6K

    Any good portable MiFi routers ?

    I had the Micromax thing, it is an absolute waste of money. It hangs in a few minutes of connecting 3g.

    Speakers to match the Xonar STU. Budget 10-15k.

    Swans D1080MKIV will be a decent choice in your budget. www.hifinage.com is the source in india. It is an active bookshelf speaker. There was a detailed user review in one of the tech forums, please search for it. Another option is the Circle Arko 80/100W, but availability is an issue.
