I agree... TP-Link make awesome networking products, way better than the ASUS junk (though they do make good Mobos). This is a basic Wifi router however and seems to get pretty good range. 100Mbit on the ports only though.
@ asus is new? lul been using mine since 2011, it's doing what it supposed to do and can't be more happy with it. But don't compare them to cisco or netgear or ubiquiti that's another story.
People in IT use enterprise level equipment so it would not be uncommon to never hear of some cheap chineese personal router/AP I dont feel he was being anti tp-link and tbh I appreciated the review and his honesty. I had a friend ask me to look into this product because they are looking to resolve some issues with wi-fi signal in the house and are too cheap to buy the equipment I suggested. guess what...I have only I think heard of them once or twice.hence my search for info. I also work in IT but, just because he doesnt like the product for some specific reasons listed in his review (no gigabit speed!) it doesnt mean he is anti tp-link. He just says if you are looking for these things this product is not for you.
