Reviews around setup (5.00 of 5)

  • Wish TP-link would update it with OpenVPN but the IPSec and PPTP setup is easy.
  • But they aren't setup to work nice with Apple products,
  • This new setup has proven (so far) well up to the high-volume traffic demands.

  • Great build quality (all metal chassis)Internal power supplyPerformancePriceCons:Internal power supply emits a low volume high pitch noise (not uncommon, but the Netgear

Reviews around tech support (5.00 of 5)

  • I have NEVER had a tech support person call me when I hadn't been on the phone with them that day, and this happened twice.
  • Also, I spoke with a tech support person from TP-Link, who had no comment about their software, but attempted to help me set up the router.
  • It's also unusual in my experience to have 3 calls with the same tech support representative.
  • He did this twice, so I spoke with the same "tech support representative" 3 times.
  • The next day, TP-Link "tech support representative" CALLED ME AT HOME and said he wanted to continue setting up my router.

Reviews around value (5.00 of 5)

  • Overall, a great value for a gigabit non-wireless router.
  • I still think these are a great value for a small business that needs basic VPN router
  • In my shopping & now in my experience, I found it to be a good value with an excellent, 5 year warranty (including 24/7 support)

Reviews around vpn (4.55 of 5)

  • At that point, either the router has to be rebooted or you have to toggle the VPN setting from Enable to Disable to Enable
  • That day I went out and got a new VPN router capable of running DD-WRT
  • There are other issues that can be overlooked in this otherwise fast and inexpensive VPN NAT router for home use.
  • For a stand alone VPN, it was great and offered fast speeds.
  • Very inexpensive VPN router, works exactly as advertised

Reviews around performance (4.21 of 5)

  • Decided to get this when the phone company updated our modem so I could make use of the GB speed on my network, ended up disabling the DHCP on the modem because my peripherals were somehow bypassing this box, never had this concern on the old routers I've had from Netgear and Linksys, hopefully I'll get better performance out of it once I finish updating the cables or I'll move to one of the CISCO boxes
  • I decided to replace it with something a smidgen closer to an enterprise router (this router) and a TP-Link TL-WA901ND 300Mbps Advanced Wireless N Access Point with Three 4dBi Detachable Antenna, 2.4 to 2.48GHz Frequency for non-Guest Wifi access and bringing the old (now broken router) back into service by disabling DHCP and re-configuring it as an LAN-isolated (guest
  • Absolutely Love the performance I'm getting out of all three pieces
  • Performance is good and have not had any issues for a while
  • I need the VPNs, so I'm dealing with the poor performance for now...

Reviews around throughput (3.86 of 5)

  • Throughput is decent, we have a 60mbps pipe and download speeds are usually around 55-60mb, but the other issues mean this is fatal.
  • some basic performance testing, it appears that throughput via PPTP is limited to 1Mbps up and down, so this may not be suitable for large file transfers or other bandwidth intensive activities.
  • Don't buy, not real gigabit router, throughput chokes out around 200m/sDrops connection at least once a day
  • Easy to install, great quality - throughput is incredible!
  • VPN throughput tops out at 20Mbps, so if you need faster throughput on the VPN you would want to look at a different router - but this is more than fast enough for basic use (opening files, email, etc)

Reviews around feature (3.78 of 5)

  • It's got some really nice features for those using VPN's, and has QOS options as well
  • Advanced VPN features include.high-speed wired connectivity.abundant security strategies
  • Unfortunately, the mail config does not understand SSL/TLS and one cannot specify a port number to connect to the mail server so the feature is useless.
  • While the GUI is "serviceable", it nonetheless is well organized, and features aren't hard to find.
  • Wonderful quality and great features will enjoy using this product.

Reviews around speed (3.61 of 5)

  • For a stand alone VPN, it was great and offered fast speeds.
  • Same problem, after 24hrs the speed dropped to well under where it should be
  • downstream speed (no reboots) confirming the problem with the TP-
  • Also, while trying to figure things out, I was not able to get good download/upload speeds.
  • Seems the speed issues I was having was due to my SB6141 modem which was limiting my speed to 120Mbps download

Reviews around product (3.49 of 5)

  • The prices on their line make it seem like you'll get an inferior product, but so far, that has not been my experience.
  • With this, as well as other failed TP-Link products I have tried in the past, I will be very cautious of buying another TP-Link product.
  • With this lack of honesty with this product I would not recommend ANY TP-link product.

Reviews around device (3.09 of 5)

  • This router is waaaaay better than the crappy D-link ebr2310 router I had previously
  • Great little device, lots of options - especially for the price.
  • Worked perfectly out of the box - this was the device I needed in order to hardwire TWO wireless routers to my Comcast cable modem.
  • Since this router supports dynamic DNS services and gives me consistent speeds of about 25mbps on the PPTP tunnel, I would highly recommend this device to anyone wishing to accomplish the same
  • Mobile devices, laptops, desktops, APs, Rokus, Chromecasts, they all have issues keeping connection.

Reviews around ip (1.69 of 5)

  • You cannot restrict the access to only preferred IP addresses
  • I even changed ISPs in the timeframe, from DSL to Cable and all I had to do was change the WAN to Dynamic IP and no a soft reboot to enable my new ISP
  • Worked with default settings, and it was easy to configure for a static IP.
  • The short of it: very flimsy user-interface (more on that later) and bad HW (lasted only 6 months)1) user interface - after replacing an older Netgear wifi/router with this dedicated "router", and attempting to add static IP assignments to the 20 WIFI units floating around, I ended up cursing TP-Link
  • Won't recognize that the modem is handing out the static IP with DHCP, nor will the router work when I statically assign the IP address to the router

  • But, other clients that honored their lease lost all access to the LAN.
  • (TL-R600VPN not supported)Client-to-
  • NAT continued to function so that any client with a static IP address or clients that continued to use their assigned IP address even after the lease was not renewed would continue to operate normally.

  • Was a little skeptical from all the negative reviews but decided to give it a try considering the price.

  • I will be setting up the QOS soon and if that does not work I will update my review
  • These reviews are really confusing because there are a bunch of very different products being reviewed on the same page
  • I know other reviews have mentioned problems with their internet bandwidth decreasing after 24 hours with this router, but I haven't experienced this

Reviews around computer (1.00 of 5)

  • In summary, this router totally trashed my computer, and as a result I have had to spend many hours trying to get this to work, which two techs have so far been unable to fix.
  • I did not have a problem connecting 4 computers and modem to the router
  • An experiment with a Gigabit switch gave my computer 100 Mbps, but my VONAGE phone box would not work with a switch
  • Specifically, it loses all connection with the LAN's computers
