I have BSNL BB at home for the desktop. Now I want to use the internet in my tab, phone and laptop. So, I was thinking of buying one wifi router. But now confused between Asus RT-N13U B1 and TP-Link TL-MR3420.
The reason for chosing these mainly is that I also have one beetel mf190 usb modem which I also want to use as a backup.
Though I was inclined to the asus router but many bad reviwes are making me think twice. So, which one would be better ?

Any suggestion other than these two are also welcome.

Sir, please share below information;
1. DD-Wrt support Huawei 3g Modem [UMG 1831] ?
2. I have tried different Huawei Modem [of Idea, Aircel etc] not successful.
3. Working fine with BSNL Teracom 3g Modem
4. Can DD-WRT be configured as Standby Internet Connection ?

go to the link i posted earlier.that will give you better idea about indian condition.btw i never trust newegg reviews completely because of the various packaging issues(reason why you should avoid buying hdd online as much as possible) & flipkart reviews are jokes meant for reading when you want to laugh(only 2-3% reviews are worth reading seriously).
