- LinuxBender 2y agoUnfortunate for me. TP-Link have been the most reliable AP and switches I have found yet. No negotiation or intermittent issues. What consumer AP's and switches are made entirely in the US?
- nativeit 2y agoI don’t know that being made entirely in the US is necessary, but Ubiquiti is headquartered in New York and manufactures its products in China, Vietnam, and Taiwan [0]. The point, I think, is that TP-Link and its management are largely beyond the reach of US law enforcement. The CCP have recently been found to be conducting large scale exploit attempts against Microsoft Azure infrastructure using infected router firmware installed almost exclusively TP-Link models.
