Very Useful, Whether You're on the Go or at Home
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: Magestic12
After 21 years in the IT field, I've see a lot of devices come and go. Some were useful & others not so much, but I was honestly blown away by how compact and user friendly this scanner really is. It literally sets up in just a few minutes and with the surprisingly light weight, built in rechargeable battery, as well as, the ability to connect via USB 3.0, WiFi or WiFi Direct, this device is truly ready to go whenever & wherever you are!
Truth be told, I didn't realize how often I found myself needing to scan something, whether it be to email a document to someone or upload to the cloud for safekeeping. This truly is an asset to have, but one you won't realize you needed until you have with you!
I would definitely put this in the category of a no regret purchase & one that will make life a little easier.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for SOHO and/or Dorm Rooms
on July 19, 2016

This is a review of a free product received from TP-LINK as part of the review program.
If you are looking for a basic, easy to use router with great coverage & performance OR you're looking to upgrade to the blazing speeds of 802.11ac, the Archer C50 is for you!
I found the Archer C50 to be perfect for dorm rooms, small houses & apartments. The dual band WiFi speed & coverage are very impressive, considering the price point. However, the addition of (4) Fast Ethernet & (1) USB ports makes this little guy entirely too hard to pass up!
I was able to game, stream (video and/or music), browse, & make video calls with ease.
A word of caution though, if you are providing WiFi for more than 2 people or are in an area swamped with WiFi networks, this router isn't for you. You simply just need to look at a more powerful model in the Archer series.

The Easiest Way to Expand Your Network
on May 24, 2016
Posted by: Magestic12
This is a review of a free product received from TP-LINK as part of the review program.
I've used PowerLine Adapters before, but they always presented 2 problems, only 1 connection (requiring a switch) & speed. That's why I was excited to check out the TLPA8030PKIT!
Once again TP-LINK delivers a solution to all issues in 1 package!
Not only does the 3 Ethernet ports eliminate the need for a switch, it delivers a blazing 1Gbps too!
I was able to connect my router & MagicJack on one end, I connected my Xbox One, Vizio UHD Smart TV & Raspberry Pi 3 (or any other PC) up in my room on the other end. The performance is considerably faster than doing all that over WiFi.
This solution is literally as easy as "done & done, now let's play!".

Save on Fees & get Better Performance!
on April 8, 2016

This is a review of a free product received by TP-LINK as part of the review program.
If you're like me, then you can't stand being nickeled & dimed to death with fees from your cable provider. Although many are finding out more & more as time goes on, you do have another option! Unlike your set top box (DVR) you do have the option of owning your own cable modem. By doing so, you will eliminate the monthly rental fee attached to your bill. Not only that, you can get a modem that offers greater performance than the one offered by your cable company.
What makes the CR700 attractive is, not only are you getting a high performance cable modem, that you own & therefore aren't paying for every month, it also bundles in a high end WiFi router too!
This enables you to get rid of a bunch of different boxes & just have an all in one, high-speed solution.
I love not having to give the cable company more money than I have too, but what I love even more is being able to satisfy all the data hogs in my household! Thanks to the CR700, everyone can do their own thing without impacting each other. One can be streaming music, another streaming / binge watching, another gaming on the Xbox One, another online shopping & myself living on my Nexus 6P (yes. I'm a smartphone junkie).
I have no complaints with the CR700. It performs well, eliminated cable & box clutter, but best of all it actually saves me money each month!

Great for Dorm or Apartment
on April 8, 2016

This is a review of a free product received from TP-LINK as part of the review program.
Honestly when I first received theTLWR941ND I didn't have high hopes. To my surprise, this little guy is a hard working, solid performer.
Now I will say this, if you are in detached multiroom home, this may not be the router for you. Only because it's not intended to cover large areas. With that said, if you are in a dorm, apartment or even a 1 to 2 bedroom home, this will work just fine.
You can stream music, videos & game with ease, thanks to the 802.11n connectivity.
You'll also be able to sit on your couch or lounge in bed with your favorite mobile device.
This really is a great solution at an affordable price, for those that just need to be online & untethered.

High End Performance @ Low End Price
on April 8, 2016
Posted by: Magestic12
This is a review of a free product received from TP-LINK as part of the review program.
I have used countless WiFi adapters over the years & it's been my experience that there was little difference between cards & USB versions. Well, that changed when I used the T8E.
The first thing you notice is the compact nature of the card itself. Next the build quality is very solid & has the weight you would expect from a card used in the corporate IT world. Another standout feature is the heatsink that covers the front of the board.That shows the card is a high performance component indeed. Yet even under heavy data load, the heat produced wasn't enough to be concerned with. The heat dissipation is outstanding. The 3 antennas are not intrusive at all & even fanned out can't be seen from behind the computer case.
Performance with the T8E is outstanding! It maintains a solid connection & is able to transmit as well as receive at full power without the slightest drop in either. I was able to stream HD video without the slightest glitch. Playing online games was a smooth ride as well.
I was also able to place the the PC using the T8E anywhere I wanted within my home & never hit a dead zone or experienced a drop in signal or throughput.
All in all, you can't beat this card for the selling price. It's definitely a win win & a no regret purchase.

Not Just a Range Extender, A Problem Solver!
on March 28, 2016
Posted by: Magestic12
This is a review of a free product received by TP-LINK as part of the review program.
In today's world of connencted everything, maintaining reliable connectivity everywhere in your home has become more important than ever. Few things are as irritating as being in the middle watching a YouTube video, downloading a file or streaming something to have it cut out or stutter due to a dead zone.
Me personally, I am using a Nexus 6P with Google's Project Fi cell service. One of the main features of Fi is that it will route all your voice traffic over your home WiFi to always ensure the best possible quality. So if I walk through the house & outside I risk call issues due to coverage issues and/or dead zones. Placing the RE450 in my living room eliminated this issue & now I never have an issue or a worry!
Another issue the RE450 resolved was with my satellite DVR. In order to use the OnDemand (and/or "start over") features, the DVR has to be online. Although the DVR supports 802.11n, the connection can be flakey at times. It works tremendously better wired, but the only way to do that is via PowerLine. The RE450 is not just a Range Extender, it also has an Ethernet port on the side which can be used for an adapter as well! After connecting the DVR up to the RE450, I was able to speed through the online setup & my problem is no more!
Lastly I have to mention the setup process, it is extremely easy. Another awesome feature is the Extender can duplicate your existing WiFi setup, therefore eliminating the need to make any changes to your devices. You just keep working as normal!
Great product, small form factor, a total win win!

Solid Range & Performance, Easy Setup
on March 23, 2016
Posted by: Magestic12
This is a review of a free product received by TP-LINK as part of the review program.
Living in a neighborhood swamped with WiFi networks, I needed a router that was powerful enough to cut through the interference. A router that was strong enough to eliminate dead spots. A router that could deliver reliable performance to a myriad of connencted devices. All without compromising speed.
The Archer C2600 more than met all those needs! It's multiple antennas provide excellent coverage, even out to my backyard! (A problem I've had in the past) I can start watching a YouTube video in my room, walk through my house & out to the backyard without so much as a stutter in the playback!
Using my Xbox One for online gaming is smooth as butter & given the download size of today's games, it's very much appreciated!
I'm also able to stream 4K content using my Vizio UHD Smart TV, without issue.
It's nice to not have fight for bandwidth with streaming & gaming hogs...not mentioning any names...family!
