TP-Link AC1200 867 Mbps at 5 GHz and 300 Mbps at 2.4 GHz Band Wireless Router, Dual Band

Just fabulous router. I am very glad to choose for this router, it gives me full house coverage upto my 2nd floor balcony with my cable internet. Apart from that this is a good deal also.. So I am highly recommend this range router to all of you..

Overall a good product. It cover my full 2bhk home in ground floor and some part of 1st floor 2bhk as well. The product shown here and the item delivered are different even though of same specs and model name, better to maintain same resemblance for more customer clarity.

Send old unusable router DSL and had to be replaced

So, I was a bit hesitant at first and skeptical that this would actually increase the speed of the internet. Well, we have satellite internet at our place (out in the woods) and it was incredibly slow. They say it was 10Mbps, However we were only pulling about 5 - 10% of that speed, if we were lucky! Watching a short 5 minute YouTube video was taking forever to load and buffer; Loading internet pages like Facebook and Google often took much more than a minute to load; Gaming online was horrendous. The amount of lag was infuriating; IF we could even get online at that. One week of this internet was ridiculous.So, after searching and comparing many different brands, I chose this router because it was cost-friendly and seemed to have potential. I bought it and it arrived within the week (I think it was just a few days, if I recall correctly. Fast shipping!) So, I hooked it all up to my modem and my PC and followed the setup instructions, which were quite easy to follow. I don't have a disc reader on my PC, so I just went onto their website and found the correct installer easily. (Looked under Support and Download Center, type in your model # and there it is)After everything was all set up, I noticed the speeds or downloads increased drastically! I tested it by downloading a game update to my xbox which were previously at average speeds of 600Kbps, and were now at average speeds of 20Mbps with occasional random boosts up to 130+Mbps. Which was the most shocking part. We never get speeds like that around these rural parts, so that is considered pretty good around here! (I can only imagine how fast it would be with a hardwired/fiber optics connection.) Videos now load quite quickly with no buffer time and browsing the web runs so much more smoothly with no wait time. Truthfully, there is still a tiny bit of lag when gaming online, about a half second; However, I blame that on the satellite internet. Luckily, it's nothing like it was before the router. In addition to the increased speeds, I find we can now have many devices connected at once with little to no disruption to the bandwidth. Albeit, we only have 1 Xbox and 1 PC hardwired, and 1 Xbox and 3 cellphones connected via Wi-Fi at any given time. I could not believe the difference this one router did to our satellite internet. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase and would definitely recommend it.

Update: It is now April 21, 2020 and we've been using the router for 2 months. It is still working perfectly for us and we have zero complaints. I highly recommend it!We moved to the middle of nowhere about 7 years ago and it never occurred to us to check who provided TV/internet/phone at the new house before buying. We found out after buying the house that the only providers were satellite companies. We realized very quickly that first year that satellite sucks, the internet specifically. We got locked into a $75 a month plan with HughesNet for a year and never once were able to actually use the internet that whole year. It was really frustrating. We simply did not have home internet for the past 6 years due to a lack of a decent provider. This past week Spectrum finally moved their service to our road. We immediately signed up. I knew I wasn't paying them $5 a month to rent a router from them but I also wasn't sure at all how to pick out a router myself. I've always been pretty tech savvy but when you lose access(and a need) to those things you stop keeping up with them, I was seriously behind on all the new updates that have been made over the last several years. I knew I didn't want to spend more than $50 on a router and after doing some research I finally decided on this TP-Link AC1200 and basically just hoped for the best. Some of the reviews weren't great so I was nervous. It arrived a day after our internet was installed so I set it up by myself. It took me all of 20 mins from unboxing to the whole house having Wi-Fi, it was VERY easy. I love that it has it's own app, a very convenient feature. We live in a 2000sq. ft., one floor, manufactured home. These homes have pretty thin walls so the signal reaches from one end to the other very easily. We are also extremely heavy on our data usage in this family and while it's only been a couple of days now it has had zero trouble keeping up with us. We've had zero buffering while streaming & using our phones, everything has been working very quickly. We have several smart TVs, cell phones, a laptop, a printer & a PS4 connected to it at the moment. The technician from Spectrum who installed our internet also said this was a good option for our 200mbps plan. I hope this helps someone make up their mind on whether this router will be a good choice for them. I will update the review if anything changes but as of now this seems to have been a pretty solid purchase and I'm happy with it.

I just love that TP-LINK product.. installed in a breeze and very strong signal.100% satisfied!

I don't often write reviews but I felt that this product was deserving of one.So to give a bit of some back story, my family was previously using a Linksys e1500 router. It was the same one we've been using for ten years. We had just switched off of DirecTV for Hulu's cable package and were noticing that our stream was constantly buffering and that on the other end of our home we were losing signal on our phones/ipads/etc.I did a bit of shopping and found this router on sale for $50. I was willing to take the chance on it to see if it would improve our signal at all, after all, amazon does offer a money back guarentee as well as TP-Link offers a 2 year warranty which is why I included the 5 stars for tech support (although I haven't had to contact them yet so perhaps take that with a grain of salt.)Right out of the box it seemed straight forward. Antennas were already attached. The quick setup guide was so easy to follow/understand I set it up under a minute. I downloaded the app, connected to the WiFi with the password underneath the router and was instantly prompted with info to set up my network with a password, if I wanted 2.4GHz AND 5.0GHz, and what to call said networks. The app was super easy to navigate as well and I found that it's user interface was clear and clean.To be 100% honest, the hardest part of the whole thing was getting the plastic off of the anntennas :pI know this is long so I apologize but I instantly saw improvements in our signal. Throughout our whole house I had full bars of WiFi on my iPhone 11. Our Smart TV connected to the 5 GHz and our Hulu is streaming TV in highest quality without even buffering for a minute. I'm so pleased with this product and if anything happens I will be sure to update this review!I will be recommending this product to my brother when he moves out next month. With the price point, the ease of access and set up, and the

The product worked well out of the box, performing fairly well in standard tests with multiple devices. The 5ghz range is great to have because none of my neighbours are using the spectrum but 2.4ghz is really crowded. This device can also be customized so that adds value. I would give it more stars but the 5ghz signal seems a bit weak.
