Terrific Router!
If your looking for a solid, stable, up to date, quality router at a fair price with the bonus of being priced better then the competition then this is the router for you.
I installed the TP-Link AC1750 in my home a few months ago, after realizing that my well liked Netgear N300 was getting a bit overwhelmed by the dozen or so devices in my home that connects to it at any given time.
I am as happy as I could be with the TP-Link ac1750. Of course I read all the reviews on Amazon and also in the press. The router has performed as well and as best/better as I could have expected. I think the price is a bargain in todays world of WAY grossly overpriced routers. The TP Link been rock solid stable and more then sufficient using our 3 Ruku players, Channel Master, 2 desktops, 2 laptops, Ipad, 2 wifi cell phones when we are home, Ooma home phone line, Epson Printer, Magic Jack (getting rid of that, Ooma rocks) plus our daughters wifi stuff when home from college and whatever else I am forgetting!
Set up was extremely easy and I have found the interface MUCH better then I expected, some people have said the interface seemed dated/confusing, honestly I found it very refreshing, very informative, full of options/extremely complete and simple to use. Maybe its just me but seems like some people need to see buttons and symbols in programs instead of straight forward words. Anyway, I fell in love with the interface, very complete.
A little background, I am in the security industry and work with customers routers almost on a daily business for their home security cameras, you cant believe the junk or outdated routers I see in most houses, including the garbage that the internet providers give their customers, they all do their job for light duty stuff but easy can get confused with the more demanding stuff, range being a big issue. So what I am saying is I only wish they all had this TPLINK router, if they did our job would be a lot easier and more trouble free for the customer. The price is a bargain and no reason to settle for less by buying a name brand that you may feel more comfortable with.
Im into electronics, computers, etc and service and install security systems and cameras, I have no relationship with this (TPLINK) company, nor have I ever used their products before, well, I am sold, as long as they produce products like this at really good prices I will be a customer, I was so impressed I also bought their Cable Modem, once again, I could not be more happy with its performance, I actually at all times get a better advertised speed then I am paying for, normally you get slightly less speed depending on time of day, I always get slightly more speed.
Anyway, I just wrote this short review for anyone like me who reads through countless reviews before buying something. If your reading this, I can tell you, if you buy this router, you will be happy and it will perform just as good and better then the "name brands" at 50% more cost.
Am I saying this is the best router in the world? No, I am saying at this price point I do not think any other name brand router will beat its stability and performance at cost of up to 50% more. I will say, now owning TPLink cable modem and this router that I am sold on TP Links products and if I were to ever upgrade I would certainly look into purchasing another one of their products. Right now this combination is working very well in our 3000 sq ft home.
Update - April 2018 __
We have owned this router for 2.5 years now.
It has been rock solid, I have been computing for 2 decades now, this is the most stable router I have ever owned.
We have no less then over a dozen wifi devices running in our home, including 4 Roku streaming boxes.
This router (and our internet connection) performs flawlessly, honestly never even have to reset it.
If your shopping price, without exception I dont see how you can buy a better router for under a $100.
Im not saying not to buy something more expensive, but just think for the average home up to 3000 sq ft this one does a job well done.
TPLink has made a believer out of me, as far as their routers and modems go.
