TP-Link TX20U Plus Reviews

It actually works

By Russell
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2025-12-20

The setup directions packed with the unit were mostly useless. The driver site referred to was ambiguous. Out of anxiety to get the device working just before I put it back in the box and returned it I took a chance and downloaded a driver install program which didn't specify which device I was getting the driver for. Not something I am comfortable doing. It installed and is working on a USB-C connection. When searching for the driver use the Archer name. TP-Link is not to be found on the driver page. Much to my surprise, the ookla speed test reported download and upload speed very close to a wired connection. We can now install this computer anywhere the WiFi signal is good without having to worry about getting a wire to it. I am impressed with the cost. I took 1 star off for the horrible installation instructions. We will see how is does long term with connection reliability.
