TP-Link TL-WR1502X AX1500 WiFi 6 Router, Dual-Band Portable WiFi Router, WAN/LAN/USB Port, Type-C Power Bank Port, VPN Server, Hotspot/Access Point/Range Extender, Home/Remote

The TP-Link Archer AX53 has been fantastic for our home network. Setting it up was quick and easy, and the AX3000 speed really makes a difference — streaming 4K videos and gaming online is smooth with no noticeable lag. The dual-band feature helps keep devices stable even when multiple people are connected at once.Coverage is excellent; I get strong Wi-Fi signals in every corner of my house. The interface is user-friendly, and firmware updates are simple. Overall, a reliable router that delivers fast, consistent performance at a reasonable price.

Brilliant. Virgin .. terrible. 3 teenage boys moaning about internet connection upstairs. TVs have frequent connection problems. Solution? Rather than extend Wi-Fi in house.. we decided to change router after reading reviews of people with similar virgin problems.Easy to set up. Switched virgin hub to modem mode and installed this as router. 4 days in.. everyone is happy. Internet connection is stable. Gaming is good, no TV connection problems. Phones no longer have to use data at home because of connection problems. Hopefully this continues. If so, well worth the £90 spend 👍

I'm on virgin media, they gave me the hub 3 which is absolutely terrible. The wifi kept disconnecting. I complained and they sent me another hub 3 which was just as bad - the wifi kept dropping and I'd have to turn my wifi on and off and put up with stuttering MS teams calls. I suspected it was the wifi signal so I bought this. Setup was reasonably straight forward although the app is kinda basic. You have to put the virgin media hub into modem mode and then connect it to this router and then restart the virgin media hub otherwise it wont work - theres a youtube video on it basically if you search virgin media modem mode - its not the top one but theres one with a guy explaining you need to reset the modem in the correct order. I followed the app and after a little fiddling it worked and the connection has been solid non-stop. No more signal drops, no more MS teams issues. The ONLY criticism is the app on my phone doesnt seem to update the firmware even though it says it does. You begin an update, it completes and then it says the firmware is still outdated and hasn't been applied. It doesnt really make sense.

I bought the AX5400 (AX73) because our Virgin hub 4 was terrible for wifi and because this looked a mean piece of kit with all it's antennas!We just switched the Virgin hub into "modem mode" and connected one cat8 network cable from it into the new AX5400. (Any cat5, cat6, etc cable is fine)Turned it on, logged into it, and it basically set itself up! VERY easy to get going.I now have wifi coverage across the entire house, which is a 4bed terrace with an extension.Before, we would lose all wifi in the furthest upstairs rooms and the extension so this is a significant improvement.We have a LOT of devices on our wifi, mamy phones, tablets, games consoles and amazon echo dots and all these are working flawlessly and with minimal effort.The AX5400 is definately the model to go for, don't bother with the lower models on this listing - it's definately worth paying that little extra to get this top model.It's very well ventilated and the lower models people complain get too hot or fail. There's no concerns with this one. I would recommend periodically wiping it for dust though because there are a LOT of tiny vent holes that look like they'd be more than happy to fill up with dust. But i'm quite happy to wipe it over from time to time.My speedtest results were pleasing.I went from 240-500MB/sec to results of upto 740MB/sec checked over a lan cabled computer on our 500MB/sec Virgin Fibre line so this was definately an improvement.Virgin hubs are terrible, they drop wifi connections, have pauses and lag delays when many devices are connected, and the range is terrible. The AX5400 is an easy solution. Definately consider one!

Can't fault this, has made the house WiFi much better & more reliable. Set up is simple & easy, the app is pretty good too.
