  • Great router paired with great software
Style: WiFi 7, BE3600
I was looking to upgrade to WIFI 6 and this router looked like a good option. The setup and install was quick and painless to connect with my modem and instantly started up. The signal travels pretty far (I live in a 3 story townhome and it seems like even on the bottom floor it gets decent signal). The software is VERY helpful when it comes to recognizing what and who is connected to your network. It automatically names and categorizes devices saving you time. It also comes with firmware and security updates keeping you up to date. So far, the router has not failed me once. Very stable. ... show more

  • So easy to set up replace my old equipment with, excellent coverage and performance.
Style: WiFi 7, BE3600
I received the TP-Link Dual-Band BE3600 Wi-Fi 7 Router Archer BE230 | 4-Stream | 2×2.5G + 3×1G Ports, USB 3.0, 2.0 GHz Quad Core, 4 Antennas | VPN, EasyMesh, HomeShield, MLO, Private IOT | Free Expert Support. I'm using this as an access point only to provide wifi for my cable modem. The cable modem is doing the router bit. So far, I'm impressed. It was plug easy to set up - just had to change one setting in the tplink admin pages to get it out of router mode and into access point mode. Then I named my wifi SSIDs the same as my old access point, plugged it into the cable modem and I was off and running. Took the time to go through the settings and pick my 2.5/5 ghz channels (I live in a condo, used a tool to see what my neighbors were using for channels and picked an open one). It made it big difference. I got this to replace an older Archer model I got eight years ago. It has made a huge difference in my coverage and especially speeds. At under $100 when I got it, this is a great value for me. Satisfied with the performance and simplicity. ... show more

  • Works better than the old router
I bought this because some reviews mentioned DD-WRT. As is the case with consumer grade routers, YMMV because of chipset roulette. I almost returned it, because the chipset was actually not DD-WRT compatible, but it seemed like it was being worked on enough that I decided to keep it. As a router, it works fine. I mounted it on the wall behind my monitor, and haven't thought of it since. I used to have to restart my old router (an ancient TP-Link) about every week. I notice more coverage. I haven't done much to try different antenna orientations - I've got them splayed out against the wall in an X pattern and it covers the house/yard/garage well. We have YoutubeTV, and haven't had any problems on the four TVs (three chromecasts, one roku) scattered about at the edges of where we want signal, or the chromebook I bring out to the garage when working out there. My biggest gripe is that I set everything up on the TP-Link user interface, which was relatively painless. I just wanted to make sure everything worked. I think went to get the DD-WRT firmware to replace the TP-Link firmware, which I found out it wasn't compatible. After deciding to keep the router, I went to update the TP-Link firmware via the UI. Which maybe worked? It is hard to tell, because I could no longer use the router after this. It wouldn't let me log in with the default password. It wouldn't let me log in with the password I set up. It lost all of the settings I had made in the initial setup, so I couldn't get outside internet. Swapping out with the old router and researching, it turns out that I needed to do a factory reset, set up the password on the router, and once I had just enough settings in there to get to the external internet, upgrade the firmware and reboot and finish the setup. Which sounds like common sense for a new router, except 1) I never expected to keep using the TP-Link firmware to care to upgrade it and more importantly 2) I'm going to want to upgrade the firmware again, and don't want to have to go through all of the setup again. What they really want you to do is to set up an online account with TP-Link and set up some sort of back door so their web site can contact your router and read the configuration and manage the router and apparently there are reports that upgrading the firmware from their website (not the router's internal website) does preserve the settings. But, this seems absolutely insane to me. Having had it now for a few months, it seems like a solid router. And for what it allows you to do, the UI is actually better than most for consumer grade routers, but requiring access from an outside server to do management of the router negates that. ... show more
