I’ve had Apple routers that worked seemlessly. Before that I trusted linksys, and they worked well and were very reliable. But since Apple stopped manufacturing routers , I read many reviews, and I believe that limksys makes an inferior product in comparison to this one. It was plug and play from the get go. And it has software that allows you to monitor who is logger on to your network. I’ve had this for about 4 months, and have been very impressed. It has been totally reliable- no issues whatsoever, and it has good range. The only issue I have is with the software, when you look at devices connected to the local network you may need to look up ip addresses to to name each individual device. This is tedious and no fun. I’m not aware of other routers that can auto populate which devices are which (like iphone 15, or hp printer, etc. ) But other than that, I’m very pleased and would highly recommend this router.

I really like the features and functionality of being able to see devices, locating repeater feature, and several others. However, it doesn’t have / utilize “Face Id” and every time I login the app rejects my password, no matter what I do as far as retyyor changing, it rejects them and threatens to lock app for 10 mins. VERY FRUSTRATING! Please get these bugs fixed as soon as possible. Lastly, the TP-Link AX-3000 repeater has worked great so far during the past initial use of 2 weeks! It offers 2.4G & 5G at the same time and it looks like the equipment that links up pics the band it needs.As far as the installation, download this APP and follow instructions, just that EASY! I needed this product boost my WIFI signal from my home to my guest house that is approx. 40 ft. away from my garage which is the closest point to position repeater that has a 110vAC outlet. I get a full set of bars on 2.4G and 3 bars on 5G signal. No buffering on 2 TVs, 1 computer, and 2 cellphones while also allowing additional equipment in my main home to access this repeater. AGAIN, so far it is working perfectly! Just get a couple of the items I mentioned earlier and it will earn 5 stars. Current price is reasonable given the service expectations met.

Originally when I purchased my RE605X too boost my current speeds, overall connection, and latency issues it was night and day difference compared to without it. But the past few weeks I’ve been having terrible and I mean absolutely terrible if not worse connection issues than why I originally had purchased said product. The app is lack luster and doesn’t really have or give you many “advanced” and or extended list of options referring to making a network change, from when I first downloaded the app and even went online and logged into the router/extender using the IP address followed by admin Id and password I’ve noticed, “UpNp” and “DMZ” settings aren’t within the interface or options anymore, no port forwarding options, just generally no significant Wi-Fi options to actually help out my connection/latency issues just a dull interface with dns, dhcp and subnet mask/ip settings. 3/5 stars on a once self opinion biased 5/5 star device and app that once was helpful especially in comparison to price compared to its other rivaling company’s that produce the same product if not 10/10 better and significantly more options to help YOU WITH YOUR INTERNET EXPERIENCE.

I may revise this later, as I'm new to TP_Link Tether. However, here on the 1st day, a "gotcha" emerges: I see _no_obvious_way_to_log_out_! This could be just annoying, but at a certain point, when I wanted to do something beyond logging in and looking around, it advised me that I'd reached Tether's limits, and I should go to the webpage, a link to which it helpfully provided. However, when I got to the webpage & attempted to log in, it informed me that my device allows only a single admin user at a time. Alright, so HOW DO I LOG OUT? Bit of a "gotcha", eh? The other thing that could use refinement is handling passwords. I would think this would be a prime UseCase for a router interface, deserving of easy visibilty, but apparently I am mistaken. I see no obvious way to manage passwords -- creation, updating, etc. My guess is that both of my complaints are trivial to the insiders who use it every day and programmed this tool. For those of us "outsiders", however, it occasions some head scratching. What do you say, guys, want to let the rest of us use the tool as easily as you do?
