TP-Link Ultra-Portable Wi-Fi 6 AX1500 Travel Router TL-WR1502X | Easy Public WiFi Sharing | Hotel/RV/Travel Approved | Phone WiFi Tether | USB C Powered | Multi-Mode | Tether App | Durable Design

I recieved my TP-Link the same day which was great. I put the router about 100'ft from the central router. I set it up which is fast, but have your passwords on hand and make sure you clearly read and follow the directions. Once I had it on and working I was suprised to see that it also boosted the signal at that distance, through walls ect. and I also used it to create a network on another system I use and it really worked good. Very good quality boxing and and parts!!

We're using this in our RV for over six months. We have all our TVs and phones set up to connect to the router and then connect the router to the campsite WiFi in hotspot mode. This way we only have one device we need to set up on arrival at a site.The router set up is very straightforward. The connection is very stable and we've had no issues. Where necessary I've also connected to my phone's mobile hotspot.Speed has been excellent. I also used the router to work on the road (again in the RV).

Bought this portable router to set up a hotspot in hotels for family devices. Creates a fast and reliable local network.Setup is too complicated. Photo shows screen shots of some of the screens in the app needed to set it up for a location. This does not include the steps to connect your smartphone the TP-Link Wi-Fi signal, and a few other screens.

I have used TP-Link's predecessor to this router for several years with great results. I'm happy to say that this new version is even better than the previous versions. As a Ham Radio Operator, I often travel with gear that requires an Ethernet Port and does not use wi-fi. This device provides an Ethernet LAN Port for just such needs. It's super easy to plug in a "dumb" network switch to the LAN Port to create even additional Ethernet Ports. The router's ability to use the new wi-fi protocols is icing on the cake.However, one of the best features is its ability to handle "captive ports" that are often used at hotels, resort, etc. Briefly described, a captive portal is what hotels and resorts use to control and verify that a user is entitled to use their wi-fi network. To do so, requires a "sign-in" which asks the user for specific information such as their name or room number, etc. So if you intend to share their network among several devices, it can become difficult or nearly impossible to interact with their sign-in process through some devices that don't know what to do with such login processes. This device's captive portal function is super simple and allows you to view and interact with such sign-in processes. Once done, the resort/hotel wi-fi is accessible through the TP-Link device as your own wi-fi network(s) [2.4 & 5GHz] OR via Ethernet. It works perfectly.No more leaving useful or needed gear at home because there is no practical way to connect it. This TP-Link device solves that problem and produces and excellent wi-fi resource for you. This is an absolutely wonderful device to have and can also be put to good use at home when you have devices that need Ethernet but the room they're in doesn't have it. This is a tremendous tool to have available as you travel or for home or business use.

I just set this up a couple of hours ago, so I’ll update if my experience changes from this initial impression, but so far I’m very happy with this purchase. We have a Spectrum 200mbps plan and upgrading from a 10-year old router. We were experiencing slow downs and bandwidth overload since moving to our 2500 sq ft house, and my older daughter has recently discovered the art of playing Roblox while FaceTiming with her friend and streaming Roblox videos on the tv...and oh by the way, my wife and I also like to stream videos while the baby streams Daniel Tiger on the downstairs tv. I originally thought it was Spectrum of course, and I had a tech out 2-3 times to make sure everything was good on their end. It was.I did a speed test prior to switching. My download speed was 35mbps on the old router. The old Linksys lived a valiant life and still mostly got the job done, but the demand of me working from home and my daughter going to virtual school made it so we needed to upgrade. Setup was rather easy, but it’s important to note **if you have Spectrum, you need to call support and activate your modem after connecting the router, then go ahead and reboot the router after this** if you don’t do that, you will likely be able to connect but unable to load any webpages, etc. My speed is now notably faster, and the download speed test read 117mbps after I was up and running with the new router. And no signal drop outs to report as of yet so here’s hoping...You can download the tp-link app to manage the home network, including monitoring connected devices (we currently have 13!) and enable smart link as well as change the network name and password. You can even reboot the router remotely and cut off WiFi access to individual devices! Signal strength seems plenty strong throughout our house, and we finally have a router that isn’t being overloaded on one frequency. By the way, you can toggle whether to manually select 2.4 or 5ghz for each device or to let the smart link feature adjust devices automatically. So far, smart link seems to be working fine. We have like 13 devices connected, and this advertises to accommodate over 25 at a time.So far I’m very pleased with this router, especially at this price point. I know I can still get a more technologically advanced router for way more money, but this one seems to be doing the job to fit the needs for my family. Now my next step is to get greedy and upgrade to gig internet with fiber technology.
