It is good so far :)

WiFi speed decreasing after few days. Rest all good

When it was time to replace my Netgear nighthawk router I stumbled across this router. It not only looks great, but also has an old style webpage set up. This is a big plus for me as I found that the apps used by other manufacturers do not work well with more complex network configurations, I'm looking at you TP-Link.If you must use an app then I strongly recommend any router admin pro on the play store.The router was relatively pain free and the set up wizard worked well. I had some challenges with getting DCHP working, but it was easily overcome.The speed of the router is good and the wi-fi coverage at least the same as the nighthawk. However it has a lower ping, I guess this is due to it not being optimised for gaming.In all I'm happy the the router and will see how it performs over a period of time.

I'm writing this as a warning to the less tech savvy of us Amazon customers. Although this is described as a wifi router, it’s not in the sense of what many of us lay-people would know as one.It would be better described as a range extender as there is no DSL port to plug your home broadband into. Therefore, you need to have either an existing router or broadband modem to be plugged into this item, meaning it was just about useless for my intended purpose of replacing my rubbish PlusNet router.There is no hint of this fact until you unpack it and read the setup page, where it starts of by saying "Plug the AC3200 into an upstream modem or router" which rung alarm bells and prompted me to do some further digging before unpacking any further, and even then, the fact that it’s an extender is buried fairly deeply on the interweb techy pages, so personally Amazon, I think that product description needs reviewing.This was unfortunate, because it was a fine looking piece of equipment, well made and Wavlink are a reputable company, so I've no reason to doubt it wouldn't serve its designed purpose, however, it’s no good for me and I suspect many others who are just looking to plug in a replacement router, setup a password, then within minutes, be cruising the super-fast highways of Sir Tim Berners-Lee creation (Either the best or worst thing that happened to this world depending on your point of view).Oh, one piece of feedback for Wavlink, if they got rid of what is probably the most fancy packaging I’ve ever seen for a computer peripheral, they could probably knock 10 quid off the price.

I purchased this item on its brilliant specifications and customer feedback. Although quite large, the router looks really good, with none of those silly aerials sticking out everywhere (it has eight internal) and I was pleased with it on arrival and looked forward to a better wi-fi experience. Unfortunately, this never happened for me.. I tried the given configurations - "Repeater" and "Access Point" but no matter what, my wi-fi dropped to virtually zero and simply became unusable and unbearable. With all the fantastic features of the router, I was reluctant to place the blame fairly and squarely on the unit itself, so decided to contact the manufacturer "Wavlink" via their customer support email address. With great patience, I tried on several occasions (and sources) to get some kind of reply from them - but nothing! Let me just add, that I previously purchased a "Wavlink dual band outdoor wi-fi extender" which turned out to be a single band when it arrived. This, by the time I discovered it, meant it was too late to return the item (my fault). So there you are, after the lousy, or should I say - non-exhistant customer service, I have returned the item for refund. I must make it clear that the Amazon seller (from whom I bought the item) has no bearing on this whatsoever and I had/have absolutely no problem with them at all, but as for Wavlink themselves, they have lost a customer as I will never purchase the brand again!

This Wavlink is magic, for someone who knows Notting about wi-fi or internet I set it up 100 feet from the router in my shed, and it's working great.

A lovely looking router with a very intuitive user interface, but absolutely abysmal WiFi. I bought it to replace my ageing BT Smart Hub which had a much better wireless signal, both on 5ghz and 2.4ghz regardless of which channels I tested it on. This was really disappointing, I had high hopes
