I was in the same situation as you. Same Router too.
I could actually get close to 1 Gbps with the stock firmware. But it was unstable, requiring a reset every other day. I used an open source firmware, but it didn't contain the NAT offload module, so I would not be able to get over 200-250 Mbps. (This was is all wired, not wireless).
Since I had a wifi access point, I ended up switching to an Ubiquity Edgemax router and haven't had any problems since.
Not really a fan of TP-Link.
- Someone1234 11y agoHere's the thing about TP-Link: They're a "good enough" manufactur. Meaning if you care about something, don't buy a TP-Link, but if you don't care that much and just need it to basically work "good enough" (e.g. WiFi for your mom's house) then they're fine. I got a cheap TP-Link repeater. It works fine, nothing special, no bells or whistles. But for the price it was a good buy.
- dublinben 11y agoTP-Link are hardly a manufacturer of "good enough" products. Their $100 Archer C7 router is the top recommendation on TheWirecutter for over a year.[0] Their $75 Archer C5 is also the top rated AC1200 router in every single category on SmallNetBuilder.[1] It beats out more expensive models from all the bigger name manufacturers.
