Not only is TP-Link's Archer C2300 the fastest router we've seen, but it's also small, unobtrusive and chock-full of high-end features. It can protect the network from viral and hacker attacks, and you can customize it the way you want.

Top performer; Inexpensive; Built-in antivirus protection; Two-year warranty

Runs hot

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.

Good range. Installed them on our first floor and covering our ground and second floor.

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.

It was really easy to set up and get running. All the devices connected no problem, and the signal strength is much better than the old tech I was using.

Ease of set up; everything needed was included; all the devices connected; coverage seems good; and the Crutchfield staff is there to help

The LED lights on top could be larger / more prominent; you can barely tell they're on unless in low light conditions

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.
