Best router I have ever owned

Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2017

Verified Purchase

Like many here, over the years, I've tried many brands and models including many so-called "elite" wireless routers that cost 3x+ what this router costs. I admit, I've only had it a short time, but this router is, by far, the biggest bang for the buck router I've ever owned. The router I replaced would give an anemic borderline 1 bar in our bedroom 2 floors up. I had to use an extender to get coverage everywhere in the house. When the main router went belly-up, I saw this one and was a little skeptical of the reviews... it sounded too good to be true. But I kid you not, I now have 3 bars up in the bedroom, and the poor little extender is going to atrophy due to non use! The range on this thing is absolutely, without question, the best I have ever seen. Set-up is a breeze, I was up and running less than 5 minutes after plugging it in to the cable modem. Would buy again, and encourage you to give it serious consideration if you need a good long range router without busting your wallet.

5ghz Failed After 2 Weeks of Use

Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2018

Verified Purchase

I bought this sucker because I'm a huge fan of TP Link. I've used their products for years.

When I got this router, I really liked it. Ease of installation, advanced features were pretty nice. I use OOMA for phone, I have dedicated servers set up, I use mac-address static routing, etc... So, I know a little about networking. We have a couple of gaming consoles, multiple computers, tablets, phones, a couple of smart tvs, etc... I also have the OOMA for home phone, as stated before. So, I have several devices.

When I purchased this router I made the decision to go full wireless at home. I previously had wired LAN all pc's, but just got tired of having to troubleshoot (rarely) and wanted to avoid the (future) installation of more wire. Also, I'm still use CAT5e so the wireless nowadays is actually faster than my LAN. So, I decided to just buy some PCI-e Wireless Adapters (also tp-link) for all my desktops and just go full wireless. But, I knew I needed a up-to-date/faster router that could handle higher speed and multiple clients. Therefore, I purchase the TP-Link Archer AC1900 Smart WiFi Router (Archer C9).

This router worked great...for 2 weeks. Now, when I say it worked for 2 weeks, I mean to say that the 5ghz "chip" worked for 2 weeks before dying. I mean it just...stopped... working. It stopped producing a signal. I have my pc about 5 feet from it with open air between. No interference, no external issues whatsoever. The 5ghz just stopped working. I troubleshooted for about 16 hours, rechecking all variables, researching internet forums...just trying to discover the issue. I updated firmware to latest version (before having issues..worked fine after...for awhile), reset to factory defaults, etc... Nothing worked. You know why nothing worked? BECAUSE THE 5GHZ CRAPPED OUT AND DIED. No user error, people. It just died from traffic use.

After having these issues, I sent for a replacement. I received replacement, updated firmware, entered in ALL my information and setup. BAM! Running sweet again on 5ghz. This time, though, I placed the majority of my devices on the 2ghz, hoping to avoid "melting" the 5ghz "chip". 12 days later, same issue. I woke up this morning only to find the same freaking problem. 5ghz is dying.

To make a long story short, this device is flawed. It's a design flaw with the 5ghz hardware. I believe that it gets overheated by all the large information exchange and just can't dissipate the heat until it just fails. No amount of replacing will help with this issue. This is why I've decided to go with a different brand, hoping that their product is better-designed.

Just a quick note: The rest of the router aside from the 5ghz works flawlessly. The 2ghz I couldn't be happier with. The installation, setup, features, etc.. of this router are great. However, I need the 5ghz to work as well. I didn't pay 100 bucks for a 2ghz router. I paid for a 5ghz router and I want it to work and last.

Amazing WiFi range and easy to set up.

Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2017

Verified Purchase

I bought this model because I own a house with a metal roof and the previous older router I had wasn't cutting it. I am super impressed with the range of this model. My girlfriends parents bought this exact same model and they live a block away from me and I get signal from their router to just barely inside my house. Mine covers the entirety of the house including the basement with no issues (about 1400 square feet) and extends outside a little too (I'm guessing my metal roof isn't letting much out)

Setting up the router took me just a few minutes. It has an auto setup menu that asks just a few questions as well as an advanced mode for more tech savvy users.

Only drawback is that the router cannot be hung up on a wall it has to sit on a bookshelf or on a table, but that's no big issue to me. it sits about a foot high.

I'm very happy with my product and would definitely recommend this router.

This is a very fine router, works great

Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2017

Verified Purchase

This is a very fine router, works great, very easy to set up. It has a 3 year warranty, and mine lasted a little more than a year when it started getting wonky, not able to remain connected to the internet. I internet chatted with customer service (they seem to be in the US--California--and there is no communication problem) and it took about 1/2 hour for them to determine I needed a replacement. I received a shipping label to return my old router a few days later (it's free) and received my new router a few days later. Sometimes we overlook service and warranty for price and performance. This unit provides both.

Excellent signal strength, high speeds, and feature-rich.

Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2017

Verified Purchase

The AC1900 is a solid mid-tier option in the wireless market. It has many of the features that low-end routers are missing (ac, signal shaping, network repeating). It is reliable and has been running without a single issue.

It is a little bit larger than some other routers, but I believe the extended range makes it worth it. The router can be set up in three configurations: as pictured (standing upright, antennae sticking up), flat on a desk (collapsing the silver foot), or mounted on a wall

Note that while it does have longer range than cheaper routers, it is not a fix all. There are still limits: in my case, 75 feet through an exterior brick wall and 4-5 interior, solid walls is too much for both 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands on all router I use. However, removing that interior wall brings the signal strength up to "Good".

Product Died in 1.5 Years - TP Link Won't Honour 2 Year Warranty

Reviewed in Canada on December 28, 2017

Verified Purchase

I wanted to provide the Amazon community an update on the TP Link AC1900 Router.

I purchased the router in May of 2016 - it failed me in Dec 2017 due to a severe WiFi issue - WiFi no longer functions.

It has taken me several hours to reach TP Link customer service, in which I was hung up on several times before I could usher the word 'hello'. After reaching an agent, I was told someone would contact me in 2 business days. I am contacted - and told the warranty is expired (2-years). TP Link will not honour your 2 year warranty and the customer service is non existent - I am told by the agent the warranty is only 1 year for this product and a replacement request is denied.

During the life of the product - it operated excellent with no issues - perfect connection all around, even through VPN services however if your router dies in less than 2 years, you will be denied warranty by the company.
