Drops wireless connections constantly across all manners of devices and software versions I have scoured the web and tried everything with no luck so I am left to believe this is just an inherently flawed device.

This router is very consistent, and I mean consistently, drops the signals in ALL of our devices: my laptop, my work laptop, my wife's laptop, our smartphones and our wireless printer, constantly get disconnected. And recently last week we had family visit, and our two cousins reported a loss of signal on several occasions.

The only difference in our network is the replacement of our Netgear router with this one, that is supposed to be faster but at the expense of dropping the signals all the time. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. I plan to get rid of it and buy another Netgear.

I purchased this router, giving it a shot because I wanted the AC 5G band. Right out of the box it was dropping connections on all of my devices on any connection type.

I searched for a new firmware, and updated it. Still happened.

Returned the heck out of this thing.

Went with an ASUS RT-AC66U, and it works perfectly 100% of the time, so far.

Router loses connectivity every couple of hours. Requires power cycling to fix the router. Confirmed it is not a client issue, as neither iPhone, linux laptop, windows machine, etc can connect until the router is reset. This item is junk, I have two of them, do not buy it.

Drops connectivity constantly. Can't watch a half hour show w/o it dropping out at least twice. No good

Constantly drops from network. IF I get it reconnected (a big IF), it doesn't alarm when commanded.

I purchased this wireless bridge to connect with the Cisco - Linksys EA6700 Router.  After several weeks and trying EVERY WiFi channel (that was the advise of the tech support staff) the WUMC710 rarely stayed connected for 24hrs.  If you search these reviews you will see that this is not a new problem for this device.  My mistake in expecting devices made by the same company to work together.  Additionally, since the dropping network connections is an old problem you would think by March 2014 there would be a firmware fix.  Nope.

While easy to setup, this router loses connectivity to wireless clients frequently and requires reboots every few days. It can not effectively auto negotiate channels on its own. Some devices will get completely blocked out of the router and require a reboot to resolve. The wired connections are fine, its just the wifi that has consistent problems. There doesn't seem to be any firmware updates for this product either so I don't see any potential resolutions coming from TP-Link on these issues. Other users have the same comments on the TP-Link website. I would not recommend the use of this router for home wifi.

Wireless card is not very far from my access point and it drops packets and is littered with latency. Every other wireless device in my apartment is fine.

I purchased this router and right from the start of use i was having issues with it. The wireless service would continually stop working. I wouldn't kick anyone off their connection, but internet connectivity would drop. This also happened repeatedly with my xbox's wired connection. I tried changing security setup from WPA2 to MAC address acces list with the same result. I don't know if these a refurbed product or what the deal is but I ended up throwing it away after the issue was not resolved with a support call to belkin. STAY AWAY FROM THIS ROUTER! I am usuing a Netgear WNR3500  now, and have been nothing but pleased with it, and would highly recommend it.

Constantly drops wireless coverage. Range is extremely limited. I have router in the same room as computer but the router will drop and go offline 5-10 times a day.

I'd love some feedback from the manufacturer on this - this is perhaps the first review I've left on Amazon. The device drops connection periodically, and only a full restart seems to permit reconnection to the Ethernet network, while other computers on the network remain in full communication. Using MBP, March 2015 model, OSX 10.10.5

It continuously drops clients, even when physically near the router and with a strong signal.  In addition, wireless signal would drop intermittently in the farther ends of my house (physically far from the router).  Interestingly, I purchased this to replace an older Linksys wireless router.  I am going back to it.

1. Wireless connection is not smooth at all. Keep getting stuck. Have to manually reset it quite often.
2. Have been updating new firmware whenever a new one is available. Hoping the quality would improve. However, with every new firmware, the quality seems gettign worse.
3. Now, after 8 month of troublesome experience, the wireless signal is totoally gone. Both my laptop, pda cannot identy a wireless signal at all. Have to call linsys to replace one tomorrow.
I won't buy linksys anymore!

Spent a lot of time trying to get this FI9826W to work.

First off, you need to update to the latest Firmware which requires 3 updates +reboot in sequence.  This solves the static IP bug.

You will frequently see a broken user interface on the browser where buttons are missing.

But the worst part is the flawed wireless connectivity.  Not sure if it's the firmware or hardware, wireless will work for a few minutes and then fail.  Changing the router wifi channel and increasing channel size does not help.  This wireless drop happens even at a few feet from the router.

Ended up returning the FI9826W.

I wish the FI9826W was as reliable as the old FI8918's which has worked for years right out of the box.

Wonderful for LAN supported internet access. However, the WiFi connectivity with this router is excruciatingly slow & drops with a frequency that will drive one to curse like a sailor. After several hours of troubleshooting via Netgear's site, forums, videos, pestering of friends in the tech industry ... I'm done. I'm afraid, this is going back to the seller.

I have had this gateway for over a year and it drops the wireless connection whenever one downloads a bigger file or connects to some retail web site (the connection is dropped, and I have to reset the box for no discernible reason). I thought it might be my internet provider, until a friend complained of the same problems, which he solved by swapping to a different gateway. I would not recommend this product.
