TP-Link router vulnerabilities found in Latvia

No, that's Netgear. TP-LINK is basically the target of the ban. The whole purpose is so that everyone but them gets an exemption to import new models.

I used to get these random stutters and notifications to lower the bitrate often. I researched so many new router options, ranging from $100 to over $500. Then I decided to switch out my stupid ugreen usb wifi dongle for a $30 tp link ax1800 with two antennas, i never get these stutters anymore. My

Good simple wifi extension

That's the route I would take. Cheapest option would be something like this for $70 (random example) in access poi
