Review on πŸ”Œ TP-Link Archer A20: Advanced AC4000 Smart WiFi Router with MU-MIMO, VPN Server, and Antivirus/Parental Control by Steve Linquist

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Died before setup was complete

I bought two of these to replace routers on 9 networks I service. Both passed the return window. I only buy TP-Link and have been happy with their products so far. I unpacked one and for a while it worked like lightning. It was about an hour into the test. Now it only flashes the power light and sometimes other lights flash along with it. The reset button does not work, nothing affects its cycle. Then it suddenly worked for about 5 minutes and went back to a blinking power light. Looks like it should go under warranty. I'll find out how it works, but judging by other reviews it doesn't look promising. And it turns out I'm not alone by looking at other reviews. Mine is just one of the failed devices sent by TP-Link. Depends on how things go, but I may never buy another TP-Link product if I'm stuck with $340 of useless junk.

Pros
  • Rugged design
Cons
  • Updates
