2600/- including shipping seems to be nice deal.
Its bit tough to know which model, the packet is same, the version number will be written in the tiny barcode strip along with serial number


but on the benefit of doubt, possibilities of rev.B1 is much higher. And my dealer has told me, only B1 is only on market as the previous version V2 was there for very less time in India.
the First model (v1) released on end of 2009, but avilable in India form available October 2010 as V2, and Rev B1 is avilable for last 3-4 month.

on safer side ask the ebay seller about the version number.

Hi Netant,

I actually searched on the eBay and the Rev.B1 is available for 5k. The other N13U available on eBay for 3-4k don't mention the Ver.
I have asked the eBay seller about ver. lets see.
For how much you bought your one?

Thanks for your inputs.

Thanks,
Datta

don't know which keyword you are using but, i found one at approx Rs.2949/- Asus RT-N13U 3G / DSL Wireless N Router Print Server | eBay
 
I'm thinking of buying this Asus router.

My only query: Will it be able to download using HTTP (8 or more connections @ single server)? No authentication - just direct HTTP downloads off a server. 😕

i thought this restriction is controlled by the server and not the client.

Teh server supports multiple simultaneous connections.

Guys, I think I'll go for the Asus RT-N13U B1 and flash DD-WRT on it.

Also,
For torrent downloading: Transmission
For HTTP downloading: ?? - What app is included (or what app can I install) with DD-WRT for HTTP downloading?

Someone plz help this router n00b. 🙁

I'm also looking for a 500 off on min. 2000 ebay.in promo code...
 


iChaitanya please check with ddwrt if the torrent downloading option works after flashing with dd-wrt coz I flashed a Belkin router with ddwrt it works great but it has dual Wifi network functionality could add guest network with the original Belkin firmware but with ddwrt there is no option for the guest network..... so check with ddwrt community before flashing.

There was an EbayDeal for that router which ended the day before yesterday. Special price : 1650 I think (but below 1700 for sure) - you missed it.

Update: An eBay email just landed on my inbox. It's not 500 off 2000, but its 5% off. If you want it, PM me.

Yes, torrent downloading works well. Verified that.

So, I bought the Asus RT-N13U B1 (import date: June 2011). I got a British power adapter along with it. :anger3:

What type of power adapter did you guys get? British or Indian?

This is what I got:



I called Rashi and they advised me to use a power adapter converter. I'll go and buy a converter now. 😕

factoryfirmware or dd-wrt, if you know a way to put rtorrent as a default torrent client let me know.

I bought from ASUS dealer (Hyderabad), it has Indian version of adapter.

Naa, I bought it from eBay.in from a seller based in Bangalore. It's imported in India by Rashi in June 2011. Pack piece.
Got a nice deal on eBay.in so bought it from there instead of buying locally. Saved almost 500 INR!

Ya, well I don't have a spike buster so I'll have to buy that converter. Will head out for a search tomorrow.

Firsty, I was like WTF after looking at the bundled power adapter. 😱

I'll report back after flashing DD-WRT + Transmission & aria2 (for HTTP downloads)... 😀
