TP link is the best brand for quality budget router. Quality at this price is undeniable. Sure other brands like iBall, mercusys, tenda may offer cheaper products with more features but none of them have this build quality.
Why this product ?
1. Under 2000 inr, this is one of the best routers.
It has 4 antennas,
Supports dual band i.e. 2.4 and 5ghz wifi
And honestly that's all you need.
2. No gigabit but do you need it ?
Some might argue you should opt for a gigabit router since this does not have those but i ask you does it fit your purpose?
Gigabit router allows for connection for 1gbps. So if you have a plan between 5- 70Mbps then you do not need a gigabit router.
Your plan itself is capped under 100 so unless you plan to get a internet plan for over 100Mbps then this is your best bet.
3. Future proof
Let me explain, let's say you do get a gigabit router in future and you don't what to do with this one. Two words : Range extender.
Yes tp link router supports built in auto settings for several operation modes.
You can simply chose range extender mode, select your wifi , add the credentials and you're done. The four antennas will pick up the signal and you'll have a good wifi connection throughout your house.
I know this because I have recommended this twice to PPL (2bhk/3bhk flats for 2-3 users).
3. Bandwidth sharing
If you buy a two antenna or a cheaper router, there is a chance that it will fail on you when load increases.
What I mean by that is total no of active users. Without any issue (speed / lag) this router supports 4-5 users effectively. They could be streaming, playing games etc.
Also note if you plan to have 4-5 users on same wifi then no matter what router you choose, you first need a minimum 50Mbps internet connection.
On a 30Mbps plan you can have 3 users simultaneously without issue.
So don't be dumb , get a good plan.
To sum it up
1. Good range.
2. Good build quality.
3. Quality software with updates
4. Easy to install and user friendly interface.
5. Best in price and class
6. Future proof as range extender
