In the general case it has more interfaces and works out which interface to send stuff to based on the L2 destination address = MAC address (ie ethernet address) in each of the ethernet PDUs. My previous router was about 10 years old (no doubt with tired electronics) so the sync speeds with the Fritz! Whilst this was easy to set up on a current network, there are other interesting aspects to the Fritz box. I was able to easily update the router's OS via the internet, which bodes well for future security and feature improvements.

Box even synchronises with your Google contacts so your home phone and mobile contacts always match and are always up to date. Extends your home network with Mesh Wi-Fi – simply combine two or more wireless access points into one intelligent system. Unfortunately on domestic kit you rarely get told in the specifications what the radiation pattern is to help you decide best placement without needing so much guess work. The previous TP-Link vr900v1 had good coverage in the garden (high bars on the devices) but the Fritz 7530 doesn't. I understand that there are extra settings I need to know about, which is a little beyond me at the moment.I have previously had separate access codes set for these, so I had to change some connection details on existing devices.

I'll likely need help setting it up when it arrives since I already read its a bit of a pain to set up. All I can say is going from the 7530 to my NanoHD was a huge improvement in signal quality at range. In a home router case its relatively dumb about it, assuming that our ISP router is the right place to send any packet not destined for a private IP address.In response to the above post, I have no idea if its FTTH or FTTC, I think its FTTH since my last one was FTTC and its a huge upgrade, talktalk doesn't explain what it actually is on their sales pages or my account.
