Tried almost everything before giving up and cutting my losses. This was less than a month ago, firmware could have fixed the problem but I wasn't going to wait. Went back the Netgear Nighthawk and haven't had an issue since. Funny thing I had nighthawk wifi 6 router before and thought they are too expensive and others could do the same thing. It was a pricey mistake on my end. Look at the negative reviews because its mentioning the same problems I went through. My place is less than 1000 sq ft.

The reality is none of these devices are any less secure than other consumer grade hardware, but they're easier to target politically because of xenophobia.
TP-Link hardly puts out updates as it is, so they're not about to put out an update that would render their products useless in other regions if used maliciously.
Have you tried MoCA or piwerline adapters?
6e routers which are reliable tend to be higher priced than this router. ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 Pro is what 279.00

What exactly are you reading?
Because that's absolutely what it is.
Go do a search for RCEs on Netgear and tell me they don't deserve equal scrutiny that they simply aren't getting.
You're delusional.
First off, it wouldn't be China enforcing this.
Why would they care about hardening security to your network, especially if they supposedly are the reason for malicious exploits in the first place?
Secondly, you probably aren't following, but President Elon is dropping government employees like flies. They're going to have a hard time imposing a retail ban as it is. We're cooked when it comes to finding cooperation with any other nation.
At least open source has room for improvement at no mercy from one company or entity.
If you find an exploit, it doesn't exist for long.
You're naive to think being beholden to a company is somehow better.

On my install, the geniuses mounted it too close to the breaker box and blocked the door from opening.
You can extend the fiber fairly easily if it's a standard SFP+ install. The extension cables are about $12 on Amazon for 30FT. Or just run ethernet and keep the modem where it is.
I would think most people have no preference and or no idea about optimal placement so they trust the technician who may not know or care much about placement depending on if they're overscheduled in their shift.

think what device you trust to RUN your network.
TP is a Chineese company, ALL your network traffic (LAN and internet) passes through the router-switch.
It is a question of the firmware (current or next) whether the router decides to copy YOUR TRAFFIC to a destination of their choice.
