TP-Link TL-WR941ND Internet Speed ​​Test

TP-Link TL-WR941ND Internet Speed ​​Test

by | Feb 5, 2019 | guide

This article is a continuation of the previous article which can be read here.

The device I’m trying right now is the TP-Link WR941ND router, here’s a description from the site.

The topology is as follows :

I set the wireless mode to 11n to be more optimal than the other modes and the rest is the default of the router.

The following are the test results of 5 devices :

Devices Processor / RAM Port LAN Wifi (Mbps) Ethernet (Mbps) Wireless (Mbps)
Lokal Internasional Lokal Internasional
D U D U D U D U
Asus X455LJ i3 5005U / 8 GB Gigabit 65 91 91 91 88 24 32 21 32
Lenovo G40 i5 5210U / 4 GB Gigabit 150 93 90 91 88 54 68 45 67
HP 240 G6 i5 7200U / 8 GB Gigabit 150         31 24 21 20
Asus TP201S N3710 / 4 GB – 150         26 13 25 18
HP Oppo F7 – – 65         37 36 39 46

 

The following is an overview of the test :

 

 

Asus X455LJ

 

 

Lenovo G40

 

 

HP 240 G6

 

 

Asus TP201S

 

 

HP Oppo F7

The conclusion is:

  1. The TP-Link device I use is still far from the bandwidth it should be, which is 500 Mbps, both with wired media (because the port is still Fast Ethernet) and wireless (because it only supports 2.4 Ghz). I have not yet known and found out how to make the wireless speed can be a maximum of 300 Mbps as informed in the description image above. If there is time and opportunity, I will inform you again.
  2. Of the 5 devices that I tried, the Lenovo G40 got the highest results both via cable and wireless, it should be that if you look at the device specifications, the HP 240 G6 can exceed that of the Lenovo G40, but I haven’t checked the device in detail, hopefully next time I can check in more detail.

Hope it helps and your day is fun, thank you.
