Review on Archer C20 Wireless Dual Band Router by TP-LINK - IEEE 802.11ac Ethernet with AC750 for Improved Internet Performance by Itf Iffan ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good and quality product, but there are flaws.

Led to 3 antennas to make their way to the far rooms. There used to be an ancient 300th Dlink and was located in the center of a 3-room apartment of the 90th series (ie, towards the end of a long corridor where the branching into rooms begins). I bought this router to throw it in the kitchen, where the Internet cable is output from the pantry. As a result, the 5G range does not break through 4-5 concrete walls, but 2.4 shoots through, but the speed drops negligibly. But if I'm in the next room or in the kitchen, then everything flies. On the 5G grid, the speed measurement showed 90 Mbps (the provider distributes, as it were, 100, so perhaps everything rests on the provider, and not on the router). Bottom line: if someone bothers with 3 antennas and an imaginary range, then everything does not work very well. Although, if compared with the old "three hundredth" Dlink, then he finally did not get anywhere, except perhaps from the "geometric center" of a 3-room apartment. Would I recommend to others: Yes. For this price (1990 in December 2022) is quite adequate

Pros
  • 2 bands high speed at 5GHz mobile application for setting up a router from a smartphone
Cons
  • 3 antennas barely shoot through the concrete walls of a 3-room 90 series.
