Range and coverage specifications are based upon test results under normal usage conditions. Actual wireless transmission rate and wireless coverage are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects and obstacles, 2) network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location, network complexity, and network overhead and 3) client limitations, including rated performance, location, connection quality, and client condition. Actual network speed may be limited by the rate of the product's Ethernet WAN or LAN port, the rate supported by the network cable, Internet service provider factors and other environmental conditions.

Good catch, what a poor design choice.

I also wouldn't really be looking at this brand with the recent bad press about Russians breaking into them.

This is junk but has it's uses.
Link attaching to a ps4 with Ethernet and then connecting this to your Wi-Fi network as an access point using the 5ghz
(Old ps4s are 2.4ghz).

Also works as a repeater for 2.4ghz for what home devices that are 2.4 only. Then have it back haul on the 5 ghz band(or Ethernet)

It's small, cheap, and power efficient. The Ethernet ports are limited to 100Mbps which is a major downside if your internet is faster than that. I got this router from a store as an emergency router replacement for my grandma's tiny apartment and their internet was capped at 50mbps anyways. For most people it's better to pay slightly more for something better. But for a 1-3 room setup with no major internet usage this is alright.
A renewed TP-Link AX50 AX3000 for $34 on Amazon is what I would get for my home.

That's some pretty serious fear-mongering there. Perhaps you should mention that the models recently mentioned as being compromised by APT28 were sold between 2007 and 2015 and most of them have been EOL more than 8 years. There are some more recent models that have the vulnerability patched.

But if you are going to dismiss other brands because they might have been exploited by Fancy Bear or Cozy Bear, you would have to add Cisco, Microsoft, VMWare, JetBrains, Adobe, Oracle, Watchguard, etc. If you want to expand that beyond Russian actors and include our friends from the far east, then you should exclude Fortinet, Palo Alto, Juniper, Ivanti, etc.

I guess your response would be some "pretty serious complacency" then. Lots of things get hacked, so we'll just not worry about it.
