    Full Feature Router / Easy to Use

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The AC3200 was very easy to set up. I have experience with Linksys and Netgear routers and the user interface for this TP-Link router was the easiest to navigate in my opinion. I was able to easily set up port forwarding and virtual networks for my home video monitors and the multiple wifi networks available in this one router (one 2.4, two 5G, and guest networks for each one = 6 possible networks). Great way to organize all the different devices on different networks. I have up to 7 wireless devices and 1 wired (TV) connected at a time and I have no problems with lag or lost connections. Haven't had to reset the router at all which is awesome. In terms of speed and performance, I have to say that the AC3200 was slightly better than the upgraded modem/router that TWC provided (ARRIS DG1670A). Download/upload speeds were comparable but the AC3200 had slightly faster ping times. The router signal reaches every part of my house and then some. Although this is only a slight improvement, the fact that I don't have to pay TWC each month for the modem rental is great. If you want a full feature, easy to use, set it and forget it router. This one is for you. This is a review of a free product received from TP-LINK as part of the review program.

    This router will give you fast speed

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This router is a significant upgrade from my old router. I subscribe to TWC's Extreme Internet which allows speed up to 50Mbps. With AC3200 my speed increased from 22Mbps to 56Mbps. I am getting faster speed than the max! I had issue with my old router not send strong signal throughout my house and garage, but it is no longer a problem. AC3200 will give you great range. I also like how I can create different connections for guests and kids. Following simple instruction, it took me about 20 minutes or less to setup the new router. I had AC3200 for about 60 days now and I have no complaints. I highly recommend this product. This is a review of a free product received from TP-LINK as part of the review program.

    I bought this to extend wifi in my house, and it was easy to set up and dial in settings. This router put out a strong signal, and has seemed rock solid.

    Was unfamiliar with this brand. A friend recommended it so I did a little research and couldn't find anything bad about them. Took a chance and glad I did. Stupid easy to set up and stupid fast! I have been using it for about a month and have not had to reset it once. Covers my entire house with no dead spots. Highly recommend!

    Power that your homes Wi-Fi needs

    This product is amazing. I have Midco as a local internet provider and for 2 years rented their modem and router. I had enough of not getting great signal in the bedrooms and zero signal just outside the patio door. I put this product in with an analog modem which was by far the best decision I could have made as I was comparing all the mini home WiFi products for a lot more money. This to my experience takes the cake. I get WiFi while down the street a couple houses and stream music. My 4K tv now blasts through uploads which the majority of the time would have to wait for a show to upload. As well, it has three channels.. that means three different signals are sent out so not everyone and everything in you home is pulling the same signal. I have one for Tv, computers/IPads and then for phones. Cannot recommend this product enough.

    I got this router to replace my R7000 Nighthawk that kept dropping connections with my ISP. So far this router has been great and having the second 5Ghz network is nice. The coverage I will say is slightly better then the previous router.

    Super easy to get running (as long as your computer has a compatible adapter such as the TP-Link AC1900 Wireless Dual Band PCI-Express Adapter with Beamforming Technology (Archer T9E). If you have an older pc, you'll have to install something like this. You will usually have an open PCI-E socket on the MOBO. Other than very easy to get up and running,( if you read the instructions) you will have an awesome router/access point. My home is 2500 sq. ft. I get an excellent signal in all area's, as well as outside my home.

    I bought this to replace a netgear wifi extender that gave me spotty performance, with this wifi router I now have 4 wifi signals (3 from this router and 1 from my cable modem) with with all our wifi devices running spread out on 4 signals slow internet, freezing and buffering are a thing of the past. My wife even made a comment that the internet seems to be running a lot faster and I had not told her I added this unit, for her to notice its fast. Also range is fantastic I have a de attached garage and I get perfect signal for my wemo switch and myq garage door control.

    Let me just say that I looked all around for a very very good router, since my old router from 2012 was in dire need of a major upgrade. I'm very glad I spent the money on the AC3200 Tri Band. I've had the router for 2 months and honestly I've experienced a little bit of signal cut out on my laptop, but speeds overall are extremely high, both through WiFi and Ethernet. The router has a very attractive design and of course very high specs. I knew I had made a great purchase.

    Great signal throughout the house. I didn't really need the 3rd 5g signal at this time, but got this anyway. It's a much stronger signal that I had before. Good speeds.

    Easy to setup and install. I don't get as many lag spikes when playing online. I'll have too add an access point because it's still not perfect. Too many walls I guess. If I had to do it over again I would have picked a different router.
