Before Chinese companies entered the arena I remembered it mainly just Linksys, DLink and Netgear for mainstream consumer routers. I've always had issues with my Netgear, but somehow I thought buying a more expensive Netgear would resolve the issue. if I could go back in time I would just tell the 16yo me to get the WRT54G

Then when Buffalo, TP-Link and TrentNet joined the party along with ddwrt, finally things got better

This looks like the EXO AX AX3200 Wi-Fi 6 Router DIR-X3260, but slower?

Just for reference...

$50

With this offer, $17. That is the definition of a slickdeal. [Not in market for a low end router, but if I was. I would jump on this.]
The catch is, you buy their lowest end router with the intention of mesh and decide well now I need a better D-Link router for my main mesh point and you end up spending more money with them.

100% legit, been around since the 1990's compared to tp-link since 2000's.

Quote from PocketsThick :
Asus constantly updates their firmware, years after release. TP-Link does not. Their routers are filled with security holes/flaws once they stop updating them. This can be confirmed by checking their firmware update history on a model that has been out for several years. For instance check this high end TPlink. Last update? 2019: https://www.tp-link.com/us/suppor.../#Firmware
You have to expect that when getting a TPLink.
Tp-Link also updates their firmware but primarily on their most popular sellers and on those devices where a threat is more than likely. Asus updates their firmware on everything cause they have to legally to stay in business in the USA, after they lost a lawsuit for creating products and having support disappear on them almost as soon as they are made.

That being said I am a Asus fanboy but their prices lately last 3-4 years have been outrageous on their routers.

Not my experience at all in recent years, but I'll let the bad reviews speak for themselves.

It's probably just crap. I've had dlink routers in the past and they were such a headache.

Going by the reviews, they are tricking you into buying one of these. $5 sounds like a great price but if they can get rid of their excessive inventory of these with you paying for shipping and some, it's a WIN for D-link. Even $0 is not a good deal on a router that is not stable..it's just landfill.

$19 after shipping and taxes. If it works for a small office, I'm good with that.

D-link is a much more legit brand than TP-link! They are the very first ones making routers Made In Taiwan (I had a lot of them like 20 years ago) until the ChiCom subsidizing exports and cannibalized the market so we are left with garbage brands like TP-link flooding the market. D-link was the reasonably priced but slightly higher quality brand and the ones I had was more reliable than ASUS (that overheats), Buffalo TP-link I had around the same time. My TP-link LEDs failed (I looked it up and other people had the same problem) and I tossed it and got a Netgear (made in Vietnam now). In earlier times (like 15 years ago), Netgear had a lot of reliability problems, but often it's just crappy firmware. If you load it with open source firmware, the hardware itself is ok. D-link kept the firmware simple and reliable.
