    AX86U first time use questions

    AX86U first time use questions

    Hi all, I have been using the TP-Link Archer VR900 V2 modem router for 2 years now (68/20Mb connection) and have treated myself to the AX86U as the VR900 is syncing at a lower speed and hasn’t had any firmware updates since 2016 so I will be setting up the router during the holidays and have...
