After getting NBN, make sure you follow the instructions on this page about half way down. https://community.tpg.com.au/t5/Broadband-Internet/TPG-NBN-FTTP-settings-for-TP-Link-Archer-VR2800/td-p/34022

After I did that the difference was light years ahead of the factory settings for NBN. This is why I gave it 4 stars, it's 5 stasr after this recommended tweak (we're with TPG obviously) but very poor before the tweak. Hope this helps :)

Been using this modem about a week ago lm using it on adsl with Mate easy setup and no dropouts. great wifi signal never had issue with modem. Just want to know when i move to NBN in 3 weeks time can i use this modem router on nbn Hfc

Set up was easy, but internet drops out frequently (several times per hour). Searched the internet and found it is a common error with TP-Link modem routers.

Stay away from TP-Link products.

My internet connection drops out daily, sometimes multiple times a day, since installing this product. A bit of Googling shows this is a common issue. TP-Link have been unable to resolve the issue, and their support has been quite slow to respond. I am returning this product as faulty under consumer law.

Previously had an ASUS AC88U which gave me nothing but grief, returned and replaced with the TP link archer and have had it for two months now with not a single issue. I have 6 wireless devices connected and running FTTN! I would never buy an ASUS or Netgear networking device ever again

If you have a big family with lots of device this is a modem you should go for, it's very reliable. It's very easy to setup with the instructions given in the box. Although it's big and bulky as long as it has a good connectivity, I have no complaint about that.

I purchased the tp link archer vr2800 to replace the sagemcom modem that was supplied. Previously I couldn't access animelab, Iview or sbs on demand through the TV apps even though Netflix YouTube ten play etc all worked the others would just show the load screen when you selected content. Purchased modem and was flicking through the apps and decided to give it a try content loaded and played almost immediately. Speed remains constant and consistent whereas before it would drop to sub 3mbps momentarily constantly. Since install I've had consistent connection.

I bought this modem on Tuesday. Worked great on Tuesday and Wednesday, today (Thursday) we have internet for 1-2 minutes and then it's gone. Settings are all fine, exactly the same as Tues and Wed, yet it keeps dropping out. Reading other people's reviews tells me why - this is a big waste of money. Going into the store tomorrow to return it!

This is a great modem/router with a very easy user interface and easy wizard or quick step. It has a nice look about it and comes with all the latest wifi technology it is more than suitable for a multi level property. the only thing I fins a little awkward is the LED displays are on top so you have to be above it to see the leds.

Well easy to set up, worked a treat for 2 months then just started to drop out. ADSL is on iiNet and it keeps the link up, but no traffic from the net ! Says please set DNS manually (even though it can see iiNet DNS), you do works for a minute then flakes out again. Disconnected it and put BoB2 back on and no problems now. I do not recommend buying this device.

Top of the range router, easy to setup, lots of different options can be managed by mobile app.
As a combined modem/router supports vdsl/adsl/cable so futureproof for nbn. broadcom chipset should be compatible.
Does not support g.fast for some fttn connections
However I'm using it on an adsl connection, and experiencing problems with connection flooding where only one device can upload/download and will lock out other devices. This seems to be a firmware problem, as other modems have not had this issue.
Support has been slow in responding and I'm still waiting.
For the price it might be worth thinking about an asus.

Bought a new TP Link Archer 2800, thought I would get an access point for the bedroom. Connected my D Link bridge no issues for the printer, reckon I could get TP Link to talk to TP Link via WPS not a hope. 4 hours online with TP Link not a chance. They tried to help I'll give them that but no go. Avoid this absolute time chewing monster absolute waste of time and money it is now in 8 pieces in the bin where it belongs.

guys it is really one of best modem routers for FTTN NBN. purchased online with 25% discount $280. can get 46 mb download and 37 mb upload(NBN FTTN 40-100 mb speed limit,aussie broadband plan)all around our 3 bedroom house. The range much better than other modems I have used in the past. Would highly recommend this product
