Good product, I recommend that you try it.

I purchased a router instead of a working TP-Link tl-wr841nd.
I wanted to replace the old router primarily to increase the coverage area - I have thick walls in the apartment and the signal quality is significantly reduced through one wall. Unfortunately, the router did not cope with this task - the signal, as it was weak in the kitchen, remained the same. Although in the zone of a good signal, the speed increased by 1.5-2 times.
Taking into account the fact that my initial task was not solved, I handed over the new router back to the store and returned my old man to his place.

Pros

A good router, with support for all modern standards, is fully suitable for organizing a fast network at home. One of the most affordable solutions with AC1750 and openwrt support The speed in simple life tests (video files over 2.4Ghz network) increased from 12-15 MB to 25-30 MB. There are many settings even in stock firmware, but custom firmware presents a significantly large number of possibilities. Lots of enthusiasts and descriptions on the net.

Cons

The new range works even worse than the old one in my apartment - if 2.4Ghz stably passes through 1 wall, then 5Ghz attenuates. In general, the transmitters have not improved coverage compared to the old model (see comment).
