    I've decided to go with this router to use in the house which doesn't have any internet or phone line.

    TP-Link Archer MR505 AC1200 4G+ Cat6 WiFi Router With Gigabit Port, Sim Slot, Superfast LTE Speed, Internal Antenna, MU-MIMO, Plug & Play


    If I want to use it at my own house afterwards, I have fibre to my house, will I be able to get an adapter so I can connect the fibre?

    Many thanks.


    I think the 515 covers an extra band, hence my recommendation.

    Hi, I spent absolutely ages reading through the specs of both products and concluded they are exactly the same.  I thought surely not?  So I asked AI and basically, yes it is an identical product but branded MR505 and MR515 for recognition of marketing locations.   Looks like I saved a few pounds on Amazon.

    Its been delivered today and I have bought a preloaded unlimited Sim Card which expires in April.  I might have a go at setting it up tonigt!

    Many thanks for all the help given and received.
    £85 via Amazon vs £60 via CEX. How did you save? :)  I know one is new, but both have warranties. Don't expect AI to give you accurate replies. They are not identical, though close. https://www.tp-link.com/en/compare/?typeId=5871&productIds=79844,78875,78462

    MR600 for £50 to £75 via CEX.

    Information not for you to change your mind, but for others going down a similar route.
    Hi

    I'm getting on fine with the Router.   The reason I went for a brand new one was purely because I wanted the peace of mind that the product is brand new, so, yes, it cost me £25 more.
