This is my go to router to recommend as a base line. I have no issues with these. Most people really don't understand wireless so there will always be horror stories.

I got it for $59 a few months ago and it works good and I like the app. It's nice being able to block devices easily. But I guess that's probably a very basic feature these days.

Maybe, but they're not the latest v5 hardware and won't run OpenWRT.

Looks like OpenWRT supports the Archer A7, including the latest v4 & v5.

That's a great firmware option for power users.

I have used Archer C7 for couple of years and wifi connection gets dropped suddenly. So I would say research more on long term reviews before purchasing.
I am using Wavlink now and it works great

Yeah, I got in on the refurb deal for this model with that in mind. It's been working great using the 5ghz channel for the bridge in a standard 1-story house.

I use it mostly for adblocking and fine grain control around firewalling the traffic. But the trade off is a few unavailable features such as attached USB storage.

How would this compare performance wise to a T-Mobile AC1900 flashed to RT-AC68U?
They are both $50 on Amazon, I know the T-Mobile is a refurb vs. this new, that aspect doesn’t really bother me.
