this rtn12hp is still relevant; for its price of rm199, can't ask for more.
i used it for 4 years until 2 months ago... all good up to 50mbps; but can't do well with 100mbps.
i don't know why some users have problems with it for even 30, 50 mpbs... maybe becos i don't do gaming or cctv or other stuff.
this tplink ac1200... worked ok for me too on 100mbps... didn't notice the infamous rebootings... but then i used it only for a couple of days.
my fren also has no problems with it for some weeks now... he complains the wifi is not so good.
after weeks n months of reading users comments... no one has been able to explain why it works for some, not for others.
hardware or firmware defect(s)?
Yeah, for more basic needs, it's sufficient..that's why I used the words "weak" and "today's standards".. It's around 6 years old and its replacements, decent high-powered 5Ghz wireless ac routers are affordable. Just as you got it back then and used all this while, so better to get the newer average and use for long till the next average.
I'm aware of the mixed results regarding the C1200 router and I'm glad that I received one of the less-problematic ones. It's definitely a mixture of hardware and firmware issues. Cuz, I do remember suffering the random reboots and Android issues until I flashed the recent firmware. There's a V3 hardware refresh of the router too, so TP-LINK is aware.
