Bought this as a replacement to our standard Talk Talk router - this suffered from persistently poor connection speeds add needed daily reboots. Setup was super easy, just needed to plug the new router in, connect it directly to the laptop (only needed for initial setup), select Talk Talk as my ISP...

Setting up was a chore but once it was set up worked fine for a few days then the troubles started. Xbox one x and Samsung smart TV constantly get disconnected for a few seconds at a time and struggle to connect when first turned on (ethernet). Wireless works, not ideal when you want to game.

Purchased to replace a BT HH3 that frequently lost an Internet connection and so far, after 2 weeks use, the product has worked well with no drop-outs. Only complaint is the 5GHz channel has less range than the 2.4GHz channel, although in my set up this is not a limiting factor.

Wifi Signal is strong on both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz Very easy to set up also. Can slow a little if multiple devices are streaming. If you can justify twice the price, go for the MU-MIMO router, this should stop wifi lag.

The Archer VR600 is TP-Link's newest wireless gigabit modem router which is also NBN ready.

Upgrading from a TD-W9980 which is also a great unit. I wanted AC and faster speed/bandwidth on 5GHz. Great specs and very flexible firmware with lots of features.

Can fix IP addresses

None

Easy to set up, great quality speeds, aesthetically modern and a really easy transaction :)
