TP-Link AC1900 Touch Screen Wi-Fi Gigabit Router

I recently bought a home which is much larger than the previous 2 BR 2 BA dwellings I had lived in previously. Because of this, my old wireless router just wasn't cutting it anymore. Besides, it was 4 years old and I was due for an upgrade. I was a little apprehensive about buying this product because it's a brand I'm not familiar with and I wasn't sure if it was one of those brands that worked great for a month and then developed a small annoying problem you learn to live with because it was working great all the time and now it's just working great most of the time. Fast forward a year and you're back to using up your cell phone data because your home internet cuts in and out more than an aggressive driver during L.A. rush hour. It has now been six months since I first booted this thing up and it's still working just as great as it did on day one. Pros: It looks fantastic. Usually, I try hiding my router, modem and cables. Now, I just have to hide my modem and cables. I actually want to mount this to the wall in the hallway because it looks that good. I was a little leery of the touch screen as I know sometimes they can be awkward/frustrating to use. This is neither. It actually has a nice, simple, easy to use GUI. And it's intuitive to boot! Things actually are where you think they should be, there's no hunting around to find a particular setting or googling "how to's". It just is, and it's great! Being able to have a dedicated guest access point is one word: "genius." Whenever someone comes over, they inevitably ask "what's your WiFi password?" and you there sit and think through all the passwords you were using around the time you set up your router and maybe you get it right on the first try, maybe the fifth. Either way, you're broadcasting your own personal passwords to everyone else also in the room. With this router, you just direct them over to the router and touch the screen and boom! A randomly generated guest password is there waiting on the locked screen. And this password can be regenerated at a set interval as well. Of course, the signal strength has to be on point as well if you're reviewing a WiFi router and simply put: it is. There are 2 different bands this operates on. For simplicity, one fast band (operating on 5GHz) and two slow(er) bands (operating on 2.4 GHz). The fast one is great for gaming, streaming Planet Earth in HD and downloading games and movies in seconds (well it could be seconds if your home bandwidth and the servers bandwidth could support it). The slow bands are good for everything else: internet browsing, streaming TV in which you're fine watching in standard def, updating the multitude of devices and apps that not only drain your devices battery but also your bandwidth. I gave a couple devices access to my "fast band" like my smart TV and console and everything else (including the guest password) has access to the slower band and I've never had any issue or complaint for that matter. Cons: I can't think of any. If I were pressed for one shortfall it would be that some comparable models have dual fast bands leaving this slightly under-powered. It's not really an issue for me and my uses but if you lived in say a house with where everyone is streaming their own TV or a house with a few teenager boys who simultaneously play COD online on their own consoles, dual 5GHz bands might be what you want to look in to.
