Medialink AC1200 Wireless Gigabit Router - Gigabit (1000 Mbps) Wired Speed & AC 1200 Mbps Combined Wireless Speed (Part# MLWR-AC1200) (Renewed)

I got it two days before we got new internet service, and was able to connect to it and set it up beforehand.Plugged it into the mode, and it connected immediately. All we had to do was log into the network.Ethernet speeds are really good, and the wifi is strong throughout the house.I would buy another one should it became necessary for me to have more than one.

I ordered best WiFi Router than many old one for years, it worked great since 2019 until recently, it began to dying with issues in disconnecting and reconnecting, sound like it worn out at top 100 Mbps Internet speed. But it is very highly reliable WiFi Router than any brand name…. Under 4 year warranty, they will work with me to give me the replacement WiFi Router (Same) soon.

The refurbished unit arrived in its original packaging but there were some fine scratches on the unit. The instruction manual was obviously used. The unit seemed like it was a return after the person used it for some time. But it works well, nevertheless. Speed is consistent and much better than my old unit. Be careful of the small push switches on the bottom since it can be easily pushed by setting the unit on top of something and cutting off the wifi signals. Otherwise, I am pleased with the performance so far.

We have a 1700 Sq. Foot home. Router is located in one corner bedroom but covers the entire house including the garage, porch, and deck with 75%+ of our modem speed (200mbs). It comes with some very short network cables which only allowed me to put it on the bottom shelf of my desk until I found a longer network cable and could put it up on top of a tall hutch and adjust the antennae for best signal. Moving it up higher improved the signal dramatically. I bought the refurbished version and the first one came with a dead power supply. A replacement arrived in about a week and it works perfectly. Very "plug-n-play" with virtually no setup technicalities.

Purchased the unit specifically because it advertised GB port for both WAN and LAN. As it turns out some LAN ports only connect at 100MBPS. This could be a limitation of my existing equipment, bit it is not certain.Decided to keep it, nonetheless, because the WiFi signal is good and Amazon was gracious enough to compensate me for part of the purchase price.

The only port that gets 1000mbps is the WAN port on the router.The 4 LAN ports are each capped at 100mpbs and the wifi signal is capped at 100mbps as well.Misguided marketing. If you have an internet plan over 100mbps spend more and get a true gigabit router.

I ordered this router because I noticed it had an on/off button on the back for the wifi (i prefer to keep my wifi off most of the time). Out of the box i had to reset modem and computer about 20 times and suddenly my connection started working (this is not for wifi, but just for wired connection). I noticed that while playing Fortnite my ping was 27 while my ping is normally is 5 or 6 with Spectrum's provided router (lower the ping the better). When I tried to add extra wired devices I ended up constantly getting errors and having to reset router a dozen times.

UPDATE: I bought a total of 3 of these, I had to return 1 due to it having problems. The remaining 2 work flawlessly.I had an older Netgear Dual Band 2.4 / 5 ghz router that seemed to work decent. However, I started having some network issues, unable to print to my network printer on occasion; was unable to always get into my computer using Remote Desktop or my security cameras using the Port Forwarding.So, I bought this 'Renewed' item and connected it. Took less than 5 minutes to set up. I just set the IP address, the SSID and passwords all the same as my old one; connected it to my ISP modem and instantly everything was working perfectly.BONUS: I have Spectrum (Charter) Business internet that was supposed to be 200mbps. I've never gotten even 100mbps even using a CAT5 ethernet cable connected directly to my old router.After installing this Media link, my WIFI 5Ghz was getting 10ms pings and 230+ mbps download with almost 12mbps uploads. And my direct ethernet connection got 5ms pings and 240mbps and 12mbps upload.I had been complaining to my ISP that I never got even close to the 'rated' speed they advertise. Turns out it was just my old router was the bottleneck.I've purchased 2 more for my home (have a 2 story split level) going to use 1 for main wifi router and the 2nd for repeater.
