Does anybody have any experience with TP-Link routers? I see the C50 and C64
are not badly priced and I really want to improve the response of my wireless
connection from this PC. I am currently using the Talktalk Sagemcom
super-router and speed on a speed test is pretty dire.
I don't have any recent experience, But I did have a TP-Link router some years
ago. I wasn't overly impressed with it and ended up getting a Netgear
Nighthawk, which was a vast improvement. I still get updates for it from time
to time.
I also think I might improve my wifi dongle and considering an Atheros Ar-9271.
Interestingly, my WiFi dongle is made by TP-Link and seems to work fine.
However, I only really use it very occasionally, such as when the Ethernet link
failed the other day.
I did use a TP-Link range extender, but it kept dropping connections, so I now
have a Netgear one that works well. But when I was a University lecturer
Netgear gave me a bunch of kit, and they were a beast to set up. (20 years ago
now, mind]
