In December 2017 was in the market for a new router. I have been a Netgear user most of my life. Saw the TP-link Archer C2300 and it seemed to have good reviews, quick speed and extended coverage. The coverage was a problem with our Netgear and would not reach my daughters room.

Loses 5G connection; Unreliable

This router was easy to setup on my network and the phone app made it even easier. I replaced about a 10-year old router. This thing is B-L-A-Z-I-N-G fast. I have already recommended to several friends. I have about a 2000 square foot home and this is more than enough.

Its a 5 star capable router. I did drop one star only because the first unit received had issues with 5Ghz connection to certain newer android and apple IOs devices. I had to spend 2 weeks with tech support and finally ended returning the unit for a replacement and replacement works perfectly for...

After doing a little research into routers after my current router died, I settled on TP-Link c2300, and I am glad that I did. The setup was incredibly simple. The cloud based settings and app make everything as simple as possible.

I have been using the TP-Link Archer C2300 for a couple of weeks and like other TP-Link Wi-Fi routers I've used, this one just works. It is simple to setup and use.

It may not be correct to call TP-Link Archer C2300 the successor of since it follows a rather different path (it's more of a budget-friendly Archer AC3150 v2). So it is a very relevant device for 2017, sporting powerful internal hardware, a good wireless performance, a user-friendly interface...

The Case Is Prone To Overheating; The Design Is Not Original

The TP-Link Archer C2300 has really made us question what the average consumer needs in a router. On paper, it would seem like the Linksys Max Stream EA9300 (AC4000) would blow it out of the water.

Purchased this router in July of 2017. Worked great until a lightening storm last night (Sept 2018). Although it was plugged into a surge protector, their tech support told me it WAS NOT covered by the warranty. No other electronics plugged into the same surge protector were damaged.

(TP-Link AC2300) Quite a huge upgrade from my older model TP Link Router, so the shear performance this router is quite even more evident to me. I have well over 20 devices on my home/business network. It is definitely up to the task.

As I have been helping out in our church's junior high school youth group for the past few years, I have learned it can be important to use the same medium to talk to he group, especially as it will probably be different from what you use or what you used to use at their age.
