Verdict

The TP-Link AC1350, typically the Archer C60 or C59 model, is a dual-band Wi-Fi 5 router offering combined speeds of up to 1350 Mbps, with 450 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band and 867 Mbps on the 5 GHz band. It features a high-performance antenna array (often five external antennas) and 3x3 MIMO technology to enhance stability and coverage for activities like HD streaming and online gaming. Main pros include easy management via the Tether app, support for Beamforming to improve signal strength, and specialized modes like Access Point. However, a significant con is that its physical Ethernet ports (WAN and LAN) are often limited to 100 Mbps 'Fast Ethernet' speeds, which can throttle internet connections faster than 100 Mbps, and it typically lacks a USB port on newer versions.
