There aren't many cheap AC1900 routers, except maybe for TENDA AC15 and TP-Link Archer C9. And TRENDnet TEW-818DRU AC1900 also fits in this price range and wants to be a bargain, if you compare it to the likes of Netgear Nighthawk, Linksys WRT1900ACS or...

The latest TEW-818DRU router from TRENDnet has proven to be quite stable and is offering good wireless speeds on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies. This is another router we are seeing with USB 3.0, but the internal hardware is not capable of delivering...

There's no kind way to put this, but there is really no reason to recommend the TRENDnet TEW-818DRU. It's not even aggressively priced, because you can get the Linksys EA6900 for about the same $175 - $180 or so. Just pass this one by,...
