I used this device briefly as my main router as my ISP hadn't yet shipped their own brand router before my internet was upgraded to fibre. I now use it as a reliable access point to extend the range of my network for 4k streaming, light gaming, and general web browsing.Setting this thing up was really simple. I'm pretty knowledgeable with tech, but I don't think I'd have much trouble if I had less experience. To use this with fibre to the property connections, you have to change the router settings to PPPoE and use login details specific to your ISP. (Search for 'PPPoE login BT/Sky/Plusnet/EE...). The web interface is remarkably simple and modern so poses no problems!Once my ISP router arrived, I switched this over to access point mode to reach some dead spots in my flat. Again, really simple to do with one button in the web client. Devices connect seamlessly and quickly. This router has been incredibly reliable, being consistent on delivering 500Mbps speeds.The range is good, but no improvement over the one I have from Plusnet. If you're looking to buy this to extend the range of your WiFi, you won't see much difference if you have anything from the past few years. One minor complaint is the shiny black plastic on top which is a nightmare for dust and scratches. This is, however, a great value for money buy for those looking for an access point, or upgrading anything that caps out at 100Mbps!

Fantastic router, just plug in to your modem and set-up on the app then use your browser to fine tune all the settings. Easiest router I have ever used and the most powerful. Fantastic value also.

Its a good device by tp link , but a bit fiddly with the getting the cover off and no indication of the correct way to insert the SIM Card , but it works well, , good battery life ,I would say its a bit on the high price level

I have suffered with WiFi issues since I recently moved into a rented flat. I went with NOW Broadband as my partner was with them living in the same area and had no issues with them.First few days were great with no issues then started to have connection dropouts, losing a bar of WiFi signal leaving the living room where the hub was etc. Phoned NOW 3 times, replaced the hub, sent an engineer out who supposedly replaced a contactor in the box outside, gave me money off my bill to buy a booster, nothing worked.I found this item as it had great reviews. I thought why not. I thought this replaced my NOW hub but it doesn’t. You keep your internet set up the way it is and this item is connected to your hub via an ethernet cable. You then connect your devices to this router and you should get all green lights.Initially I had green lights but no internet connection. I panicked thinking it wasn’t going to work with my WiFi. However on the instructions there is details of a website to troubleshoot and eventually it done a firmware upgrade on my phone for the router which took a few minutes. This is all easy to do so do not worry if you’re not tech minded, either am I.After the firmware upgraded, everything was sorted. I had internet. The next thing was to test if it had improved my speed. My NOW hub was situated in the living room and when lying in bed I would only ever get 2 bars of WiFi on my iPhone and videos would rarely load. After I was connected to the TP router I went through and it did drop to 2 bars but then straight away went back up to 3. I done 2 speed tests (see photo above). The bottom one is connected to the TP router and the top one is connected to the NOW hub. It’s almost double the speed. That’s another thing, because you need both your normal broadband and this router set up, you can just switch between the 2 if you want too.I have the Tether app which again it tells how to install in the instructions and I can now control my devices etc. It’s really easy to use and you can customise your settings to your preference.To conclude I was initially skeptical that this would work with NOW but it did and has improved my connection massively. If you’re thinking about it, just do it.Hope this helps anyone who was confused like I was before buying.

Set up in minutes, and suddenly my WiFi went from snail on vacation speed to cheetah on espresso. Streams are smooth, gaming is lag free and I can finally walk around my house like a WiFi wizard with full bars everywhere. Honestly, it’s the best relationship upgrade I’ve had all year.

Signal is rubbish. The router is right next to my smart TV and the apps barely load Netflix, Prime, Youtube all barely work. Kids ipads and phones constantly disconnect when in the same room as the router never mind their bedrooms.I have city fibre over 1gb download had the eero router that came with it and never had connection issues or trouble watching netflix etc but wanted an upgrade and bought this. Expensive mistake

The router in general works well but...1. The child website filtering appears to be broken with some strange websites being blocked.2. Subscription required to get more advanced features which were on their older routers, this is just a disgusting money grab.3. The web interface feels incomplete. For example, copying a device to reserve an IP address does not always copy the device name and then there is no way to change the name once reserved.4. Why does it shut down and restart all the Wifi bands when I adjust one particular band.5. The 5 and 6 GHz bands appear to slow when under load and does not give the expected performance even though connection to each band is >1900Mbps
