OMG, I should read this thread before I buy!!!
I just bought a new TP Link Archer C1200 V3 router last week via online, ard RM300, and just received few days ago, use 3 days now, feel wanna cry....

I am using Maxis home Fibre, previously come with technicolor tg784n, I am tired with the default router, always reconnect wireless, bad coverage....that is why I plan to replace it during 1111 online sales....

I saw this C1200 is new version than C5, though new will be better, but now I regret.

so far 3 major issue,
1) auto reboot randomly ( I guess u guy know this)
2) connected device suddenly lost connection, and reconnection fail with incorrect password error....I can login to router via LAN, the wifi password same, nobody change it, after restart router without update anything, everything work..
3) router hang, all device not able to connect to router including LAN. restart solve.

So far I use 3 days, I cant remember how many times I manually restart router, and sometime it will help me auto reboot....this is really worse than default router...

So far any solution ?

yayaya, disable firewall sound scary, especially i got public address enable.

I called TP-Link support, this is new router, with so many known issue, I requesting to return/refund, but they want to investigate first, so far I provide all symptom and info, waiting their response.

From all other Lowyat forum expert experience, the old series C5/C7 still the best and stable. not sure whether I still can get it...

Finally, send my C1200 to refund.
Looking to buy C7v2 as replacement.

Any big brother using C7v2 here? mind to share the experience?
My main concern will be stability, Maybe will try to setup file sharing as well.

*i got very bad experience with C1200, auto reboot, hang, wifi lost connection.....hope C7 will be better.

Wow, C3150 look nice!!! but it is double the price for C7, consider out of my current budget

I use this router for my condo only, most of the time connected with 3-6 devices only (laptop, phone, chromecast).
Initially I think C1200 should be good enough for my little condo, but it truly disappointed me, lucky I still able to make refund, now going to "upgrade" to C7.

TP Link official store having mega sale at Shopee now, selling C7 with extra discount, about RM350 after discount.

I also check with TP Link, they are selling v4, but this maynot make me happy.

Again, from my experience in C1200, they are many user complain v1 having auto reboot issue, v2 fix most of the thing, i got the product is v3, all issue come back...
So far I saw many good feedback for C7v2, hopefully v4 will continue working well...
