The overall connection and interference management of the OnHub router is much better - 13 antennas vs 6. The OnHub performs better overall and the management is easy/seamless. The TP-Link AC3200 router tries to compete with this using beam technology to focus on each device, but I found the constant switching from/to channels kept knocking me offline. I disabled the beam technology when using this router myself. However, the TP-Link AC3200 router offers a lot more advanced settings for the user to change within the software and more features to manage their network. In addition to software changes, AC3200 hardware is also a slight advantage - roughly similar main processor but has 3 additional processors to offload tasks, 4 ethernet ports instead of one, an extra USB 2.0 port, etc. If you want a simple setup that works and you don't have too many wired devices or want to change stuff (advanced), then I would prefer the OnHub router. If you need additional wired ports or like to tinker a little with logs/advanced features, then you may be better off with the AC3200. Either way, both are great performers and work very well for the network, but the OnHub has twice as many antennas to keep track of interference and noise. **Q: Does this router have Mac address blocking feature?** A: You can whitelist or blacklist MAC addresses. **Q: Is this router Verizon/Frontier compatible without using their router?** A: Short answer: No. Sadly, if you intend to use this device as an Access Point and an additional router to provide DNS and DHCP services, this device does not forward DHCP packets through the wireless interface: You need to always have the DHCP + DNS features enabled on the AC3200. There's this discussion on the TP-Link forum explaining this in depth: http://forum.tp-link.com/showthread.php?82779-Archer-C3200-How-to-use-as-access-point-only-(Extremely-disappointed-with-TP-Link-so-far) **Q: Is this a plug and play router, i.e. connect my fios coaxi to the router, plug in my desktop, set up my laptops and it's done...** A: Yes. no need to plug in laptop. Once coaxi is connected, you can access wifi with pre-setup password. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very reliable, fast, and awesome *by A***B on February 22, 2016* I've had this up and running for over a month and a half now and it has been nothing but reliable. It has a strong signal and great range. I had purchased the Linksys WRT1900ACS prior to this and that thing was a disaster, the firmware was terrible and the networks would drop out multiple times a day. I looked for a while to find a replacement for it and came upon this router. I really liked the web interface for the Linksys, especially being able to custom name the devices attached to your network. I emailed TP-Link support and asked if this router had that feature, they emailed back the same day and the response was...no, this router does not have that option. That email was sent before I purchased this router. Tech support even emailed me back a few days later and asked if I had anymore questions and gave me numerous ways to contact them if I did (I really liked the thought and speed of the customer support).Despite not having the naming feature, this router had everything else I wanted so I decided to purchase it. Setup was a breeze and it has been up and running ever since. I usually have at least 12 devices on my network at all time (iPhones, Androids, iPads, Xboxes new and old, Playstations, laptops, desktops, etc..) I have them spread out on the 2 5Ghz channels and the 1 2.4Ghz channel and everything seems to work well. For those that care, I have the Xbox One on a 5Ghz channel and it has open NAT without me having to tweak anything. The web interface is nice and very well organized and the mobile app is pleasing as well.I pay for 60mbps downstream and 5mbps upstream and with the speedtest.net app or website I always get those speeds if not more regardless of the band or the device being tested on (sometimes it is a little under, but not much). I also have an external hard drive hooked up via the USB 3.0 slot on the router and it does a pretty good job reading and writing. I have not done speed tests on it, but I do know it is a little bit slower than the Linksys was. In the end I returned the pile of a router that was the Linksys WRT1900ACS and could not be happier with my decision of replacing it with this TP-Link AC3200. Thanks for reading. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Promise *by B***. on November 20, 2017* I've owned several TP-Link products this being one of the more anticipated products out there for me. Last year this was quite the new pricey router with very promising specifications. I grabbed it when it went on sale. Two day shipping was delayed because of Thanksgiving week (was expecting it Friday). Amazon delivered and got it to me on that Sunday.Overall, decided to go with this as the two TP-Link Archer C9s (V1) I had were about done (routers typically last 4 to 5 years under constant use). I've tried this router at a cousin's home who purchased a TP-Link router based on my recommendation. I purchased aTP-Link AC2300 for a friend's home (both my cousin and my friend have high-speed Comcast Internet). And my grandparents farm with DSL have the TP-Link N450 (TL-WR940N). All work without hiccup and needless to say I prefer their products (I've tried several companies and have had terrible experiences -except with TP-Link). I mean dropping WIFI, poor range and a total lack of features. This router sits as the most powerful and anything higher in performance costs $180 plus.So you can imagine my surprise when this was DOA. It happens. What's frustrating is all signals indicating it was working with the exception of the little globe light (i.e. meaning Internet connectivity). Different Ethernet cables. Several reboots and power on and offs. Nothing, I tried all the firmware available on TP-Link's website and all logical configurations that would work with our network:V1_170707 (newest)V1_160704V1_160202 (oldest version available)This router specifically as a V1.1 came with the V1_170707 firmware. Defaulting back to it, also did nothing.So I've had to once again ask of Amazon to do the task of shipping me stuff on Thanksgiving week.Kiddos have finals and exams. Will update once the replacement is here. Sigh.Update (11/21/17):Upgrade from 4 stars to 5 stars. Second one came in and works fantastically. And actually, the first one is fine too! I had to call my Internet provider and it was a problem on their end. Now, I have two ultra powerful routers replacing the Archer C9 V1s. This is excessive for 3,000sqft but a welcome upgrade. Didn't think the issue was my network having to be reset. Both run the latest firmware (V1_170707) without pause. Highly recommended. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/17206044-tp-link-ac3200-wireless-wi-fi-tri-band-gigabit-router](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/17206044-tp-link-ac3200-wireless-wi-fi-tri-band-gigabit-router) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-11-14*
