TP-Link Archer C7 Review: Decent Performance for a Low Price

TP-Link's Archer C7 delivers a lot of router for the money, with reasonable performance and the ability to connect peripherals.
Pros:
  • Good 5-GHz performance for price
  • Two USB ports for connecting peripherals
  • On/Off switch for wireless transmissions
  • Parental controls for restricting Web surfing
Cons:
  • USB ports use slower 2.0 spec
  • Subpar performance on the 2.4-GHz band

Great Wireless ROuter

I purchased one of these to replace our older Linksys wireless router. It was really quick to get it set up and running. With our old router, I generally had to reconnect to my office at least once per day. With this router, I have been able to stay logged in for days at a time.

Easy to setup, disappointing performance

We've been using an Asus RT-N66U for a couple of years with no complaints -- terrific coverage and max speeds from our Verizon Fios Internet service. Yet, all of the recent media hype over AC1750 caught my attention, and I decided to give the Archer C8 a try.
Pros:
  • Easy To Set Up
Cons:
  • Poor Signal Strength
  • Slow Connection Speed

Excellent Product

I gave this a couple of months of operation before making a review. I have had no trouble with this device that required any customer service. That should actually be another pro. I have been very happy and for the price having a true dual radio router has been well received in my house.
Pros:
  • Easy setup
  • stable
  • recovers well from power outages
  • good coverage on 2.4 gig channels
Cons:
  • Low signal in 5 gig range through walls and greater than 50 feet away
  • I sometimes have to switch to 2.4 gig radio to get connected

Archer Wireless Dual-Band Gigabit Router

At first I was hesitant to review the TP-LINK Archer C8 AC1750 Wireless Dual-Band Gigabit Router when chosen to do so due to my limited tech savvy. Surprisingly, I found the setup and connection to be both quick and painless, as easy directions were included with simple step by step instructions.

Ordered this from Bt Shop, it arrived within the 4 days as promise, the box had a dent in it, but luckily the router was undamaged. I upgraded from a Netgear DGN3700v1 because the QOS was useless, the Tp-Link Archer C7 AC 1750router is really great because you can control the download speeds as well...
