It is priced similarly to the high end TP-Links and has high end specs....
RouterOS (Mikrotik) is a very powerful router OS based on Linux used
in system critical applications but also available for home use.

If those are all your demands an ~80NIS WR740N meets you requirements
fully..... (though you need to be careful the latest revision seems to

If anything the WR740N is more powerful then the wrt54gl and unlike
the wrt54gl can run the latest version of OpenWRT.
