AC1900 Smart WiFi Router (Archer A8) -High Speed MU-MIMO Wireless Router, Dual Band Router for Wireless Internet, Gigabit, Supports Guest WiFi

After less than 3 years with my prior router from a different brand, its signal strength was noticeably declining and then 2 months ago I received an email from the manufacturer saying that it would not longer be supported and may stop working entirely. That was the context for searching out and ordering this TP-Link remote router for my office and I am very happy with its improved performance compared to the unit it has replaced. I have the router installed in my home office, in a separate building about 100' from my house. This router is connected to our main modem in the house through a 200' LAN cable which works perfectly. Setup was extremely easy - I followed the instructions precisely, step by step, and it hooked right up. The password strength is both satisfactory ... and not so darned complicated that it's difficult to enter as required. The strength of the signal is much better than what I had before, easily crossing the back yard and allowing connectivity from rooms facing from inside the main house. It also allows good, fast signal through a metal porch roof which wasn't possible previously. As much as I was frustrated with having to replace a unit that wasn't old enough to reasonably fail, it was completely worth it for the improved performance this has brought for my home office. As advertised; full marks!

For configuring this baby I connected my laptop to it with a cat 8 cable and then right into advanced settings. It was very easy to configure just the way I wanted it. The configuration interface is simple and straight forward and offers help buttons for things a person might not understand. I have a 3500 sq foot home, half of that being the basement. The signal is all bars in every corner of the house, which is better than the TP-Link AX11000 I replaced with this one. If you want a quality WIFI 7 router, this is it.

If you want a router that is as future-proof as possible while delivering great real-world performance and EasyMesh support, this is the one to get. I previously tried a TP-Link gaming router that I thought would do everything this one does. Instead, I got weaker and less stable WiFi in exchange for it looking like a spaceship and coming with a bunch of AI gaming QoS features that are mostly useless in real setups. In most cases, you should not be using QoS at all anyway. This router has been far more stable, has better signal strength, and has been much less of a headache overall. Do yourself a favor and get the non-gaming version. You will get better performance without the gimmicks. The little pixel screen is fun but kind of pointless. I would have preferred it not be there in exchange for a lower price, but it is still fun to mess with and write things on. Also, for those who care, this is an AMAZING Steamlink router even through multiple rooms. Can confirm, very low latency and packet loss.

Reliable Speed, Solid Range, but Basic Features I’ve been using the TP-Link AC1900 (Archer A8) for a while now, and overall it’s a solid mid-range router. Setup was painless — I had it up and running in under 15 minutes, and the TP-Link app makes it straightforward to tweak settings without having to dive into the web interface. Performance-wise, it delivers stable speeds across both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. Streaming, Zoom calls, and online gaming all worked smoothly without noticeable drops. The range is good enough for a medium-sized home; I was still getting a decent signal in the backyard, though speeds do taper off the further out you go. I also like that it supports MU-MIMO and has multiple Gigabit ports, which keeps wired connections snappy. Guest WiFi is a nice touch and easy to set up. On the flip side, this isn’t a feature-packed router — you won’t find the advanced controls or parental features of higher-end models. It’s more of a “set it and forget it” device than a power-user’s tool. Bottom line: A dependable everyday router with good speed and coverage at a reasonable price. Great for general home use, but if you want advanced customization or cutting-edge features, you’ll need to look higher up the TP-Link line.

Great router, way more powerful wifi signal than my replaced Asus ROG BE98. Only issue was the IoT network is flakey, but just setting up a guest network with the same SSID and credentials, then deactivated the IoT broadcast, fixed all issues and I'm never seeing a single drop out any more.

Increíble producto a un precio muy accesible, vale la pena para bajar el PING subir la velocidad y aumentar la cobertura del Wifi.
