Replaced our old router with this and we noticed a difference in connectivity and speed pretty instantly. Coverage is good, though we do have a couple of range extenders also from Tapo. So far dropout rate has been minimal and I think this has been more a problem with the Internet provider than the router. Easy to set up, just follow the instructions and you'll be fine, but lots of help on the Internet if not. Works really well and really happy with it, but more importantly the kids are happy!

If you, like me, are a Virgin Media customer who has been gnashing their teeth in frustration at their absolutely rubbish so-called 'Superhub 3.0', then prick up your ears (and/or eyes) and read on. I've had my Superhub for about five years now and it was ok at first and its coverage used to reach the very rear of my long, narrow house, but over the past few months its WiFi has been randomly dropping until earlier this week when I received a message from Virgin Media saying 'Your account has been upgraded - reboot your kit', so I duly rebooted the Superhub only to find that the WiFi from it had completely stopped working. My partner and I both work from home, so this wasn't the best, but after some hair-pulling moments of panic I discovered that the ethernet ports on the back of the superhub still worked, so I was able to get some semblance of connectivity restored (the WiFi hotspot feature in Windows 11, indicentally, is absolutely superb) and decided that it was time to switch the superhub to modem only mode and purchase a WiFi router.After a little bit of hunting and research, I whittled my selection down to a few routers. The TP-Link Archer C64 obviously won the battle due to its bargain basement price and richness of features, so I snapped one up and it landed into my grubby little paws a few hours later, and I was quickly tearing through its cellophene wrapping to get a gawp at it.>>> WHAT'S IN THE BOX?In the box, you'll get the router itself, a short ethernet cable, the power adapter and a couple of quick-start instruction books. Bonus green points to TP-Link for making the packaging purely out of cardboard and better for the planet.>>> FIRST IMPRESSIONS?The first thing that struck me about this router is just how small and light it is - it's really tiny and weighs next to nothing. It's also square, which is a radical departure from the routers I've bought in the past which resembled artfully modelled matchboxes, and is very minimalist in its design. At each corner are its massive antennas which make it look like some sort of dead robot/crab creature.There are a row of LEDS on the front of it and, around its back, there are four ethernet ports (with a dedicated one for plugging into your hub) and a WPS/Reset button and the input for the power adapter.>>> IS IT EASY TO SET UP?Well, I work in IT and have set up a few routers in my time so I've got a fair bit of experience in such things. Saying that, I did find this router particularly simple to set up, mainly thanks to the TP-Link app which guides you through the setup process. From plugging it in, setting the Virgin Superhub to modem-only mode and getting the Archer C64 router up and running and pumping out its WiFi connection, it took less than 15 minutes, I reckon.Less IT savvy folks might find it a little more difficult (the app isn't great at explaining what you need to do next) so you might want to grab an IT-savvy pal to help you if you're not too sure what to do.>>>WHAT FEATURES DOES IT HAVE?Despite the relatively cheap price of the Archer C64, I think it's pretty fully featured. It's got all of the bells and whistles such as a built-in Firewall, Dual SSIDs, DMZ, port forwarding and all sorts of things.>>>HOW DOES IT PERFORM?Well, coming from a Virgin Superhub 3 - a hub that's not exactly well regarded - this thing is lightning fast and has an impressive range. The superhub failed to reach the bathroom at the very rear of my old, long, narrow house (with thick walls), but with the Archer C64 I'm getting a fantastic signal and good speeds. Running a speed test sees this router hitting and sustaining the maximum speed my contract is capable of. You can't ask for more than that!>>>SUMMING UPThis is an absolutely cracking router for the price and, if you're sick of the hub that came with your broadband package you should definitely consider getting one of these!

I have been having issues with slow wifi speeds and poor coverage with the default router that was supplied by my internet provider.Why oh why did I not get this sooner! Great price for a router that ensures pretty good wifi speeds.I have 500mb/s coming into the house and speeds are easily matching this through wifiI even brought a tp-link extender that was so easy to set up and create a mesh that doesn't drop below 300mb/s even in the furthest parts of the house!If you have been thinking whether or not to buy this product, just do it!

This fixed all of our issues in the home. No signal issues and extremely strong in each area. I've wanted to swap to modem only mode for a while so having done this I'm very surprised how easy this was and the the tether app interface helps and is so self explanatory. I no longer need my wifi extenders in the house which is a shame but I can now sell these on. We've now future proofed the house for when we get full fibre in our area so this is exciting. We have around 20 devices connected and this doesn't even break a sweat!

To preface this review I've had my Vodafone router for about 3 years. In that time it's performed faultlessly. However recently it had been dropping connections frequently and being selective on devices that would connect to it: phones and tablets would connect but laptops and PC's would not. Very odd. Signal was also fairly weak in certain areas of the house, even though I live in a 2 bed terraced house.I purchased this after having previous positive experience with TP-Link products. The value for money is second to none. I purchased this particular router for £29.99.Setup was very straightforward; I simply plugged this router via ethernet cable into a port on the Vodafone router, logged into its web interface and selected AP mode. I then disabled the Wi-Fi on the Vodafone router to avoid having multiple AP's on my home network.So far the device has performed flawlessly, anywhere in the house my devices are achieving full signal, the speeds are consistently good and my issue of certain devices taking an age to connect is but a distant memory.I do work in the IT industry so am familiar with configuring routers, but this is very simple and as long as you follow the provided instructions you'll have no problems with setting up this device.

TP-Link Archer BE230 Router WiFi 7 BE3600MbpsI loved the features of this router. Was affordable and packed with features, but sadly has a bug that hasn't been fixed for years of TP link router history.I bought this router to upgrade my current one, but after a few days, the 2.4GHz Wi-Fi stopped working. At first, I thought it was just a faulty unit, so I requested a replacement. However, the replacement also had the same issue—2.4GHz Wi-Fi disappears, but the 5GHz works fine.A quick search on Google reveals this is a common issue with TP-Link routers. It seems to be a widespread problem that's been affecting their routers for years. There are countless posts on forums, Reddit, and other online sources about it.I’ve tried everything—resetting the router, adjusting the channels, updating firmware—but nothing fixes it. The issue persists across TP-Link's models, as many users have shared similar experiences over the years.
