Worked as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Setup was quick and easy following the included instructions. My old router was about 5 years old. It was constantly loosing internet and slow speeds when it did work. Since I installed the TP Link about a month ago I have not dropped service once. I have Spectrum internet. My download speed is now about 3X what it was. I get good coverage over my entire house.

Great router
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.After struggling with a new tri-band DLink that in the end I returned, I ordered this TP-Link after reading the reviews and really glad I did. The router fired right up, brought my iPad right to the admin screen to change the password, reconfigure the WiFi, and make some other custom changes. The coverage is outstanding on all of the bands in my 3000 sq ft home and my 300/50 mb/sec fiber service is 285/50 both in the user interface and on the 5.8 WiFi. The parental features are very easy to set up, especially with the on-line schooling, and the X-Box and other devices are off-line during school hours. Overall I'm very happy with the unit, but the antennas stick out like a sore thumb on the top of my wall unit.

Easy setup and great coverage
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I didn't need a new router. I had been eyeing this one for some time. I had internet service put in at my dad'd house, so that gave me the excuse to install my router at his house and replace mine with this one. Unfortunately, I was on a time schedule and had to cancel this order with Best Buy because it was going to take a couple of weeks to show up. Instead I ordered it from Amazon and just happened to catch it on sale. I can't say that I notice a speed increase. My plan is a "up to" 200 Mbps plan, so my modem and router both outperform the internet service. With my phone about 2 feet away, I measure 234 Mbps download speed. It was VERY easy to set up. I have it near the center of my 2,000 sq ft home and I have internet in my yard up to at least 50 ft in all directions, which is far better than my old router, which was designed for large homes.

Nice little drop-in replacement router
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Rock-solid, dependable, and the built-in OpenVPN Connect client isn't bad at all (beats the heck out of setting up DynDNS and OpenVPN yourself, and I say that coming from a pfSense). The one beef I have is that there's no multi-gig / 10Gb switch port on it, but to be fair, the two link aggregation ports will do for 95% of users (the rest of us are running NIC teaming in-OS). It also cut the power usage and noise levels on my rack _way_ down - I was able to remove an Optiplex 7020 desktop (pfSense router), a Netgear R6300 v2 WAP, and a Netgear JGS728TP switch from the rack, and my home office is a lot more tolerable now. I'm looking forward to see how it gets in the summer.

Beastly Router with Beastly Power.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.Awesome Gaming Router. My wife and I use it to when we work remotely from home and for my son's remote learning. We use it for gaming on pc, ipad, iphone, ps4, xbox also. We live in an apartment so it works well without issues. App on iphone works well enough. Feels secure with WPA2 encryption. Just remember to go to TP-Link wifi settings to make WPA2 default as Apple iphones and ipads will alert you of not being in that setting when you 1st buy this router. Wish it was standard setting but it is not difficult to change.

Had issues but warranty replaced
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.Initially the 2.4 Ghz band disappeared and did not come back after about a week. Contacted TP-Link and they had me ship it to them. After their testing they sent me the latest version of this model and has been working fine since. I only had to go about 10 days using an old router. Set up is easy and works great with coverage over all of my house and the yard areas outside. Nice improvement over old router that would not cover the whole 2500 sf house. Of course they now have a Wifi 6 router like this, but will wear this out before upgrading again.

Q: Questionwhat is the coverage area that it will service
Asked by jack.
- A:Answer Unsure if this will answer but live on a 1/2 acre property in a suburban area. Reception reaches the back of the property. I was told it could reach three houses away if I wanted to but have not tried it out. I can sit in the back of our standard housing development and still get reception and not be on my back patio.

Q: QuestionWhy does the WiFi say weak link on this r were router
Asked by Tina38.
- A:Answer If you are referring to the "weak security" message, this simply means you need to configure the router's WiFi encryption settings to WPA2-PSK [AES] for each WiFi band. These settings can be found within the router's web management interface. If you would like assistance changing these settings, please reach out to our TP-Link support team here: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/contact-technical-support/
