Review on WiFi router TP-LINK Archer C6U, black by Adam Wojtczuk ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

You should not take it, it does not meet any standards.

In fairness, as a 5 GHz W-Fi access point, connected to a Beeline router, which takes the Internet with L2TP without any problems, it seems to work fine for the couple of days that I tested it. On two different devices (TV and phone), the maximum Wi-Fi speed was ~250-280 Mbps. Either the router cannot give more, or this is already the limitation of receiver devices. Total, because in my case, the router could not connect via L2TP and severely cut the speed when routing between LAN ports, was returned to the store without regret.

Pros
  • 1. Price/declared functionality 2. Design
Cons
  • 1. I could not connect to the Beeline home Internet via L2TP in St. Petersburg. Those. Picked up the IP address of the LAN, but the Internet does not see any. Different Kinetics and their own Beeline router connected without problems. Although it would seem that the Beeline L2TP profile is sewn into the setup wizard. 2. Rezhet speed on LAN ports. What gigabit is there? . On this router, a smart TV set (with a 100 Mbps adapter) receives video from a computer (DLNA) over a wire with a maximum speed of 30-40 Mbps. Naturally, at the same time, even FullHD blur remixes lag, not to mention 4K, where the picture freezes after 3-4 seconds. At the same time, the D-Link switch, antediluvian and simple as a stick, provides a constant maximum speed of 98-99 Mbps. 3. There is no firmware that could possibly fix something. The last and so far the only one is April.
