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

TP-Link Archer D7 AC1750

Just take a look at the price tag -- the Archer D7, an AC1750 router costs AU$169 in Australia. That's a $90 difference between that and its bigger brother, the Archer D9 . UK citizens don't get quite the same deal at £129 compared to £159, but it's still a substantial saving. The sacrifice?
Pros:
  • Despite the drop in price
  • the Archer D7 still performs at the 5GHz end of town
  • and has nearly all the features of the D9
Cons:
  • Options and web UI design aren't as advanced as competitors
  • and 2.4GHz performance isn't great

TP Link Archer C7 review

Respectable wireless performance and full list of features makes the Archer C7 a truly worthy purchase, especially if you don't want to spend too much to try 802.11ac for yourself.

TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750

In a world of hopeless model numbers, the TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750 is at least a breath of fresh air. It's a delight to have the friendly sounding Archer C7 appear on your list of network devices, while inside its ultra-gloss black chassis is some serious networking hardware.
Pros:
  • Good overall performance
  • Decent price
  • Great feature set
Cons:
  • Slight blip in AC speed

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.

Maybe it's the house?

I get 100MB cable coming into the house (actually it was testing at 107 and 108MB/Sec). Once I connected the TP-Link Archer C8, the fastest I could get was 28-29 MB/Sec... and I'm in a room almost directly below the router.

TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router (V2)

The TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router (V2) may cost less than $100, but you'd never know it based on its performance and feature set. Its 2.4GHz and 5GHz throughput scores were better than similarly priced budget models, including the $90 Linksys EA6350 AC1200+ Dual-Band...
Pros:
  • Affordable price
  • Very fast throughput performance
  • Easy to install
  • Lots of management settings
Cons:
  • Clunky user interface
  • Middling file-transfer speeds
  • Only USB 2.0 ports

Have had this unit up and running for about 3 months. I was having problems with the V Super hub poor wireless signal and having to reboot all the time. Even the replacement was no better. I have the super hub set in modem mode and the wireless has improved after connecting the C7.

Decent Router

Vastly increased my wireless speed / range. If there is one comment I would make, which isn't about the product - don't buy from Kikatek - the delivery company they use is poor - they left my item IN the dustbin which was due to be collected the next day.
