I have had it for 3 days and I have seen a significant difference compared to a previous ZTE. Very easy installation, very good signal (it is full in rooms that needed an extender). The extender (d-link) connected easily with wps. I also had an issue with the on-demand feature of Nova and now it hardly ever freezes. And finally, with the extender, you had to make settings on the IP to connect, and now it connects without any problem. A very good purchase for its price.

A cheap modem router with rich features. It replaces the ZTE modem from Vodafone. It connects at the same speeds, but Netflix loads high quality immediately instead of taking 5-10 seconds to reach 1080 quality.
I hope it lasts...

EDIT: The Wi-Fi coverage is lower compared to the old router, also if I have 2 Wi-Fi lines on my mobile, it doesn't work... I switch to data.

EDIT AFTER MONTHS OF USE: The Wi-Fi is very problematic, don't get it unless you have a wired connection. The Wi-Fi constantly freezes and even the company itself doesn't know what to do.

    I did not expect improvement because the technicians who came did not find any problem, yet it saved me. I recommend it to anyone who has problems with their line.

    This review is about the network version: v3

    There was an improvement compared to the ZTE H108N provided by Vodafone, but nothing special.
    Slightly better Wi-Fi signal, no disconnections, and a speed increase of about 3 to 5%, I would say.
    I chose version 3 because of the chipset (the one that has the USB port at the back), but the store sent me version 4 as software with the chassis of version 3.
    The Tp-Link TD-W9970 v4 does not have the USB port. I don't know if it matters that it is the software from V4 and if it is worse than V3.
    Be careful where you buy it from and only buy it if you have a very serious problem with your previous router.
    I should add that it heats up quite a bit and I have done the following trick and it is always cool... see photos.

    This review is about the network version: v4

    Take it with closed eyes! It's a treasure for its price. Good Internet and decent wifi. Pay attention to the connection, follow the automatic installation and be careful with the minimal options that we should set ourselves, e.g. FORTHNET_ADSL and Region Athens, etc.
    Personally, I followed someone else's advice and put four "feet" to lift the modem/router a bit, so that there is better air circulation, resulting in it staying cool constantly. There are several instructions on the Internet, I advise you to watch one or two videos before connecting it, in order to configure it correctly from the beginning, in terms of security.

    It will be difficult for a beginner user. You need to know how to set it up to connect. It has a stable operation without interruptions. Increase and stabilize the speed compared to the provider's. My two children had morning lessons via the internet and before I bought it, they constantly complained about interruptions and instability, but after its installation, they never complained again. As for the range, I didn't notice any differences regarding the provider's router.

    5 stars from me!
    I had a lot of problems with speed drops and constant disconnections with the provider's modem.
    I've had it for about ten days now and it used to disconnect 3-5 times a day and the speeds were frustratingly slow, but now it has only disconnected once since I got it and it consistently maintains speeds at very satisfactory levels for my area and distance from the exchange...
    I didn't expect such improvement, I highly recommend it!

    This review is about the network version: v4

    The most economical solution for VDSL2, replaced the ZTE 168 of forthnet.
    It does its job perfectly with high speeds and no disconnections in an 80sqm house without any wifi issues.
    Easy menu with plenty of options although I think you don't need to change much.
    Pay attention during setup, it doesn't have auto detect for the network, choose Greece and then your provider (ISP). If you have forthnet VDSL2 as your ISP, choose other and enter 835 for the VLAN ID and everything will be OK.

    I haven't dealt with a worse router than this one. I had one that was given to me by Forthnet when I made the connection and I had no problems. Since I replaced it, I have been frustrated, especially with the mobile phone that needs to be literally stuck to the router to have a signal. Far away. And with cheaper ones, I believe you will do a much better job.

Definitely a value for money product and whoever manages to get it, should. Easy installation, trouble-free operation, set it up once and forget about it.... get it without a second thought!!!

    The router is stable to the point of nausea, open for 30 days without a restart, not a single error on the VDSL line 50 from the cabinet. You all talk about the wifi, well I'll inform you that I'm on the second floor, I go downstairs, go outside, and I have 3 bars on my mobile, and the router at home is deep inside with 2 walls in front of it. And with 10 devices connected to it only through WiFi. It simply does the job perfectly, I can finally relax.

    This review is about the network version: v2

    You will need to perform frequent restarts by returning it to its factory state because it often loses its settings and becomes uncoordinated.
    2. The wi-fi signal reaches up to 10 meters in a straight line, and if there is a wall in between, you will have no signal on your balcony or a weak one.
    3. It is worse than the Pirelli router that Cyta provided; at least that one had better range and didn't crash as often.
    4. I do not recommend it for the price of €36.70; it is too expensive

    I bought it the day before yesterday, easy installation for someone unfamiliar like me, however, I had to talk to a technician from OTE for half an hour to figure out why it doesn't have internet, but in the end, I fixed it, it hasn't let me down so far like the previous provider, I get better wireless coverage in the most remote areas of the apartment and because it will remain functional with VDSL that will come soon, it's a good value for money, so VFM

    Crap. Unstable wifi on a free channel without interference, it only reached 43mbps once while it usually hovers around 15mbps. It often freezes and even with a cable, it achieves low speeds, but it goes back to full speed after a restart, which lasts for about 2 days before dropping again. Obviously, I ordered another one and I will give this one away to some poor soul since it's not even worth selling for 10 euros.

I have had it for 3 days and I have seen a significant difference compared to a previous ZTE. Very easy installation, very good signal (it is full in rooms that needed an extender). The extender (d-link) connected easily with wps. I also had an issue with the on-demand feature of Nova and now it hardly ever freezes. And finally, with the extender, you had to make settings on the IP to connect, and now it connects without any problem. A very good purchase for its price.

A cheap modem router with rich features. It replaces the ZTE modem from Vodafone. It connects at the same speeds, but Netflix loads high quality immediately instead of taking 5-10 seconds to reach 1080 quality.
I hope it lasts...

EDIT: The Wi-Fi coverage is lower compared to the old router, also if I have 2 Wi-Fi lines on my mobile, it doesn't work... I switch to data.

EDIT AFTER MONTHS OF USE: The Wi-Fi is very problematic, don't get it unless you have a wired connection. The Wi-Fi constantly freezes and even the company itself doesn't know what to do.

    I had to do some configuration via the web as an administrator, but otherwise everything went well. It's already been a month and it works consistently well.

    Overall stable and fast. At first, it was a bit challenging because it didn't work well with my computer, but after a few months, I haven't had any issues (probably my laptop needed an upgrade).

    It is easy to use and stable in operation.
    Fixed the issues of repeated restarts.
    I did not expect improvement because the technicians who came did not find any problem, yet it saved me. I recommend it to anyone who has problems with their line.

    Very good router, superior quality compared to those offered by companies. HOWEVER, it is only a router. I do not recommend it for owners of cosmote modems.

    This review is about the network version: v3

    There was an improvement compared to the ZTE H108N provided by Vodafone, but nothing special.
    Slightly better Wi-Fi signal, no disconnections, and a speed increase of about 3 to 5%, I would say.
    I chose version 3 because of the chipset (the one that has the USB port at the back), but the store sent me version 4 as software with the chassis of version 3.
    The Tp-Link TD-W9970 v4 does not have the USB port. I don't know if it matters that it is the software from V4 and if it is worse than V3.
    Be careful where you buy it from and only buy it if you have a very serious problem with your previous router.
    I should add that it heats up quite a bit and I have done the following trick and it is always cool... see photos.

    This review is about the network version: v4

    Take it with closed eyes! It's a treasure for its price. Good Internet and decent wifi. Pay attention to the connection, follow the automatic installation and be careful with the minimal options that we should set ourselves, e.g. FORTHNET_ADSL and Region Athens, etc.
    Personally, I followed someone else's advice and put four "feet" to lift the modem/router a bit, so that there is better air circulation, resulting in it staying cool constantly. There are several instructions on the Internet, I advise you to watch one or two videos before connecting it, in order to configure it correctly from the beginning, in terms of security.

    I have it for about a month.
    It is very good. Stable connection, easy installation. The speed on wireless doesn't drop even though I have it in the room and I am in the living room.

    It will be difficult for a beginner user. You need to know how to set it up to connect. It has a stable operation without interruptions. Increase and stabilize the speed compared to the provider's. My two children had morning lessons via the internet and before I bought it, they constantly complained about interruptions and instability, but after its installation, they never complained again. As for the range, I didn't notice any differences regarding the provider's router.

    5 stars from me!
    I had a lot of problems with speed drops and constant disconnections with the provider's modem.
    I've had it for about ten days now and it used to disconnect 3-5 times a day and the speeds were frustratingly slow, but now it has only disconnected once since I got it and it consistently maintains speeds at very satisfactory levels for my area and distance from the exchange...
    I didn't expect such improvement, I highly recommend it!

    This review is about the network version: v4

    The most economical solution for VDSL2, replaced the ZTE 168 of forthnet.
    It does its job perfectly with high speeds and no disconnections in an 80sqm house without any wifi issues.
    Easy menu with plenty of options although I think you don't need to change much.
    Pay attention during setup, it doesn't have auto detect for the network, choose Greece and then your provider (ISP). If you have forthnet VDSL2 as your ISP, choose other and enter 835 for the VLAN ID and everything will be OK.

    I haven't dealt with a worse router than this one. I had one that was given to me by Forthnet when I made the connection and I had no problems. Since I replaced it, I have been frustrated, especially with the mobile phone that needs to be literally stuck to the router to have a signal. Far away. And with cheaper ones, I believe you will do a much better job.

    Kelepouri after seven months of continuous operation does not present any problem no matter how many devices are connected to it. Definitely a value for money product and whoever manages to get it, should. Easy installation, trouble-free operation, set it up once and forget about it.... get it without a second thought!!!

    The router is stable to the point of nausea, open for 30 days without a restart, not a single error on the VDSL line 50 from the cabinet. You all talk about the wifi, well I'll inform you that I'm on the second floor, I go downstairs, go outside, and I have 3 bars on my mobile, and the router at home is deep inside with 2 walls in front of it. And with 10 devices connected to it only through WiFi. It simply does the job perfectly, I can finally relax.

    A very good and affordable router for its price is the ideal choice for home use and handles multiple devices well. It is not suitable for business as it does not support 5ghz WiFi AC. However, it has the advantage of being compatible with both ADSL and VDSL

    This review is about the network version: v2

    You will need to perform frequent restarts by returning it to its factory state because it often loses its settings and becomes uncoordinated.
    2. The wi-fi signal reaches up to 10 meters in a straight line, and if there is a wall in between, you will have no signal on your balcony or a weak one.
    3. It is worse than the Pirelli router that Cyta provided; at least that one had better range and didn't crash as often.
    4. I do not recommend it for the price of €36.70; it is too expensive

    I bought it the day before yesterday, easy installation for someone unfamiliar like me, however, I had to talk to a technician from OTE for half an hour to figure out why it doesn't have internet, but in the end, I fixed it, it hasn't let me down so far like the previous provider, I get better wireless coverage in the most remote areas of the apartment and because it will remain functional with VDSL that will come soon, it's a good value for money, so VFM

    Crap. Unstable wifi on a free channel without interference, it only reached 43mbps once while it usually hovers around 15mbps. It often freezes and even with a cable, it achieves low speeds, but it goes back to full speed after a restart, which lasts for about 2 days before dropping again. Obviously, I ordered another one and I will give this one away to some poor soul since it's not even worth selling for 10 euros.
