I have 4 of the ZyXEL PLA-401 units that I have been very happy with.
I've had a couple of other brands previously that seemed to lock up
every few weeks, especially if there was a lot of traffic going
through them. The ZyXEL ones have been much better - one of them has
to be reset every 6 months or so, but that's with continual BitTorrent
and other activity.

They are currently =A335.99 for a twin pack at Ebuyer, so may be worth
considering as an alternative to the TP-Link.

On the down side, they are only 200Mbps - faster ones are available
now.
