Complying with the IEEE 802.11n standard, you can create a wireless network and get up to 18X the speed and 6X the range of conventional 11g products. The TL-WR1042ND is able to work smoothly with almost any bandwidth intensive application including VoIP, HD streaming and online gaming without the lag. With its powerful N technologies, the router is also able to mitigate data loss over long distances, turning your home into a fully covered WiFi network.
With a built-in Gigabit Ethernet switch, TL-WR1042ND possesses powerful data processing abilities. You can unleash the full potential of your N-abled device and eliminate the bottleneck in transferring speeds between wired connections and 11n wireless connections. In this way, you can share large files like HD video in minutes rather than hours.
The TL-WR1042ND’s USB 2.0 port allows you to share files to your entire network with a storage device or FTP server, Furthermore, the device’s built-in print server supports hundreds of printers in the market.

With Quality of Service (QoS), you can determine how much bandwidth is allocated to each application. This ensures optimum utilization of bandwidth by controlling congestion and preventing bandwidth abuse. This way, users of a small network receive committed and specific bandwidth, preventing non-critical applications from degrading network performance.
The TL-WR1042ND features Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS) which allows you to setup your security by simply pressing the "WPS" button. This automatically establishes a WPA2 secure connection which is more secure than WEP encryptions. Not only is WPA2 faster than normal security setups, you won’t have to remember a password!
