Review: Good Router - Good router, used it to connect my Oculus wirelessly ant it did a good job. Lasted nearly 2 years, stopped working just before warranty expiring. Contacted TP-Link, and Roezelle Ubalde, their agent, helped me with returning it under warranty.
Review: New / refurbished router - Works fine given the price and that it’s an open-box item. The instructions say it comes with a power supply but there wasn’t one in the box. Fortunately the power supply for the previous one works for this as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Router
*by D***S on 7 July 2026*

Good router, used it to connect my Oculus wirelessly ant it did a good job. Lasted nearly 2 years, stopped working just before warranty expiring. Contacted TP-Link, and Roezelle Ubalde, their agent, helped me with returning it under warranty.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ New / refurbished router
*by L***H on 16 February 2025*

Works fine given the price and that it’s an open-box item. The instructions say it comes with a power supply but there wasn’t one in the box. Fortunately the power supply for the previous one works for this as well.

### ⭐ 2 pin European plug!
*by P***Y on 27 August 2024*

This item is sold with a 2 pin European - not ideal for use in the UK. I couldn’t see this described in the specification nor shown in the product images. Returning for this reason.
