ORIGINAL REVIEW:
I recently gave Uverse the boot, and went back with Time Warner (now Spectrum). Uverse forced me to use their lousy router (replaced 5 times - don't even get me started - horrible couple of years). I also had a router that was about 5 years old (Cisco / Linksys), and so I figured I would be good to go. Well, performance of my IP cameras, laptops, and Amazon Fire Stick were not so great with my new setup. I figured it was Time Warner's fault, but decided to take a gamble and just flat-out replace my router.
So I arrived on the TP-Link AC1200 due to the low price but high performance specs. And I have to say I am blown away with the performance. I have been running it for over a month, and not ONCE have I had a hiccup where I needed to reboot the router. I have now been able to easily do port forwarding for my IP cameras, and connect as many devices as I want, with zero issues. Even my Fire Stick now performs like a champ (almost zero hesitation, even running wirelessly in a bedroom about 50 feet from the router). The range is excellent, signal strength excellent, reliability excellent, and I'm thrilled.
My ONLY complaint is that much to my surprise (and maybe because I still have a mindset and skillset more relevant to 2010?!?), there is not a dedicated WPS connection button. All of my IP cameras use WPS to connect, and so each time I had to open up a browser window, log into the router, and go to the advanced settings in the wireless screen to temporarily enable WPS. Not a show stopper because I rarely need this function, but it is a pain to have to go through those steps. Who knows, maybe that is a "security feature", but for me it is just a little extra trouble.
Regardless, the incredible performance and stability of this unit has made it WELL WORTH the upgrade over my previous router which on paper still "should" have been good enough for my needs. Very highly recommended!

Sfogliare la rete è diventato molto più veloce, la rete WiFi è più veloce e più stabile.
Soprattutto non perdo l'intera rete dell'ufficio ogni volta che il modem /router fornito dal gestore decide di aggiornarsi o resettarsi.
Earlier review 2: Range looks good. However the speed barely crosses 50 Mbps (I hv a 100 Mbps connection) in 2.4 Ghz frequency band. It supports 100 Mbps in 5 Ghz. Good router except for that speed drop for 2.4 Ghz channel. I dont know why it is like that...Also surfinig is an issue. Set up was easy. I wasnt taking any chances this time.
Present review: I am writing after 20 months of usage. Product is very good. Get good speeds in 5 Ghz. Worth the buy
