Tp Link Router

[1 GB DDR3] TP-Link ER605 V2 Omada Gigabit VPN Router was easy to set up (using it as a standalone router) and basically started working once powered on. The boot cycle is a bit slow (~2-3 mins), but once active there are no issues with all the network devices connected to it. The 4 ports are sufficient for setting up 4 different networks and the streaming devices seem to be more stable (less buffering, more responsive) than before. I should have bought this router years ago.

[External] I am still impressed with my TP-Link switch and router. Neither are cantankerous or unreliable. They just work as advertised. Both the router and switch are in hotter environments. My several name brand, more expensive gamer high speed router and switches all seems to fade in the heat, eventually dying in 2 or less years. Way too expensive for marginable reliability and inconsistent speed. It appears with my TP-Link I may not have to buy a new ones soon. My needs are pretty simple. I don't need to be the fastest game in town, just transfer large files reliably and keep working. These continues to be all I could ask for.

[1.3 in] I've been waiting for an affordable rack-mount 10Gbps router from a reputable company, and it's finally here! I'm using this router for a 10Gbps internet connection. I'm getting around 8200 Mbps throughput, which is around the same as what I get if I connect my PC directly to my ONT. Unlike some other competing products, TP-Link's hardware is sufficient to actually handle these fast speeds. My internet provider (Sonic) use copper 10GBase-T (standard Ethernet cables) for their ONT, so I'm using a Wiitek SFP-10G-T module in the WAN SFP+ port. The other SFP+ port goes to a MikroTik CRS312-4C+8XG 10Gbps switch that my devices are plugged in to. I haven't tested many of the built-in features yet, including the Omada controller. I don't really need any fancy features - I was upgrading from a basic consumer-grade wifi router, so honestly any router would have been fine for me. You don't have to use an Omada controller, especially if you just have one TP-Link device to administer, as the router has a decent web UI built-in. One of the main downsides of this router is that the eight Ethernet ports are only Gigabit. I really wish TP-Link would have at least made these 2.5Gbps ports. I guess they had to limit them to Gigabit to reach their $350 price point, but I would have been happy to pay a bit more to get 2.5Gbps. Having said that, Gigabit is still plenty of bandwidth for many devices, and you still get the full throughput across all the ports (each one can be concurrently downloading at 1Gbps, using ~8Gbps upstream bandwidth). If you want to get 2.5Gbps or 10Gbps on downstream devices, I'd recommend also buying a 2.5Gbps or 10Gbps switch that has an 10Gbps SFP+ uplink, and connect it to the SFP+ LAN port on the ER8411 via a DAC cable.

[0.86 lb] This was a quick setup to extend the wifi from my TP-Link AX3000 wifi router. It copied over the SSID from my router and now I have strong coverage throughout the house.

[1440 Gb/s ] I bought this 10G switch to pair with the recently released TP-Link AXE16000 10G router and a sonnet tech solo 10G at my desktop. Insertion of the unmanaged switch did not significantly impact my bandwidth in speed tests and has proven to be reliable so far. The link from the router to the desktop is about 75 feet of CAT6a. I have tried most major brands, and for simple and reliable installations, TP-Link has really delivered with recent products. Very happy they are now supporting 10G.

[NAT] This was an upgrade to an older TP-Link router. Very easy to install with the app. Coverage good overall for a 1700sqft home.

[1.25 Gb/s] I needed a few 10G SFP+ to RJ45 Adapters for my tp-link 10G router and 10G switches, where a DAC cable couldn't be used. B&H had them in stock, the lowest price, and the fastest shipping. Keep them spaced out and wear gloves when removing, they get a little warm.

[5.15 lb] This was an upgrade from a TP-Link router that was about ten years old, and is well worth the cost. It sends a much stronger signal throughout our 2400 square foot home. Setup was a breeze, changed the password easily, and could not ask for more.

[Internal] Needed a router to replace an $18/month one from Verizon. The TP-Link AX1800 got good reviews on the web and was available from several vendors for $79. I had good experiences with B&H in the past and wanted to give some business to someone other than Amazon. Set up was easy and the performance has been great!

[13.265 lb] I purchased this on the recent recommendation of CNET, and I've ordered another. It's a great product, and it has me considering of going with TP-Link for my next router in order to take advantage of its OneMesh system.
