Tenda AC10 AC1200 Wireless Smart Dual-Band Gigabit WiFi Router, MU-MIMO, 4 Gigabit Ports, 867Mbps/5 GHz+ 300Mbps /2.4GHz, Support VPN Server, WiFi Schedule, (Black, Not a Modem)

I've been using this router for the past three years, and my experience has been excellent. The setup was straightforward, and it has consistently provided a stable and strong signal throughout my home. The range covers multiple rooms, and it handles multiple devices without any noticeable drop in speed. The router’s user interface is easy to navigate, making it simple to manage settings and security features. Even after years of continuous use, it remains reliable with minimal downtime. Overall, Tenda offers great value for money with consistent performance, making it a dependable choice for home networking.

I've used many routers till date, but I never found a product that does what it promises. Brands like Dlink, TPlink, Linksys, Cisco, Netgear etc. Are more visible in the market because people "especially people with no technical expertise" want them, for them buying a router is no better than buying a ceiling fan, if their neighbors have Orient they'll buy Orient too... he he! By the way that's exactly how most brands tend to survive in the market with their substandard products and premium pricing. Having expressed my views about those greater brands, let me now give you'll a fair and concise review of "this" product (Tenda AC 10). My Dlink gigabit router is not able to reach most parts of my house, its range is limited to my bedroom, due to which I bought a TP link extender about few months ago, but that failed to deliver too, infact it transmitted data at the most 40 mbps even when connected inside my bedroom and 1000:40 is definitely "Sheet" (deliberate spelling mistake). Note: Playstation network can give you nightmares when a 100gig game is downloaded at 1MB speed. Amazon fire tv on the other hand can work with any network, infact it's such a great device that it can possibly even work with a dialup connection. So my BIG problem was, you know it! Tenda AC 10 with the right setup and placement did the job, I repeated my primary 5G connection with this router and only left 5G network on, to avoid any possible interference, and as you may already know 5G or AC connections are not great when it comes to signal quality, yet this router is able to reach most parts of my house and my PS4 gets over 200mbps data transfer rate. Yes, this may not be the router with all features included such as SIP ALG or FTP ALG (firewall feature) which I use mostly, yet otherwise it has most of what one may need such as Good Firewall, DDNS support, VPN support, WiFi repeater etc. And moreover it has the best signal range of all. I feel astonished when mere repeaters are sold and bought with an inflated price tag when products like Tenda AC10 are there to kill the competition. That's all folks!

very good product

The Tenda AC10 AC1200 is one of those routers that quietly overdelivers. Setup is quick, the interface is clean, and within minutes you’re online with stable dual-band Wi-Fi. The 5 GHz band easily handles streaming, gaming, and work calls, while the 2.4 GHz band covers the house without drama. MU-MIMO actually does its job—multiple devices stay connected without speed drops. The four Gigabit LAN ports are a big win at this price point, especially if you’re running a smart TV, PC, or NAS on wired connections. VPN server support and Wi-Fi scheduling add a layer of control usually seen in more expensive routers. The signal strength is solid for apartments and mid-size homes, and heat management is decent even with heavy use. Design is simple and modern—no gamer spaceship vibes, just clean black and functional. Important note: this is not a modem, so you’ll need an ISP modem to pair it with. Overall, if you want reliable performance, smart features, and gigabit speeds without burning a hole in your pocket, the Tenda AC10 is a smart, no-nonsense choice. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Update after 2 weeks. The wifi signals are super strong on both bands (2.4 and 5) It will give you the hand issue sometimes after installation. The LED lights on the router stop blinking and start blinking in a very rhythmic manner like it's sleeping and does not give you any idea what exactly is happening. There will be no wifi signal, the only solution is to restart the router. At that time do not think that your ONU is out of sort, it's just the router that is not working and it happens several times a day. You can see in the video when it hangs, the system light goes out of sync, can't even log into the router. Normally the system light blinks at normal intervals. The worse thing is when you call their support number they won't help but will only tell you to go to the service center. This is how they fool people, sell their product and then you start to and fro with the service center. In a nutshell, support service is worthless even you escalate it to the high level, all are the same. They do not care that you are the customer at some point I felt that the support people even do not care about their company itself. This happens daily several times under heavy downloading. I am returning the product just because of their worthless post-sales support, I called and emailed them but no one is listening. If you really want to invest your hard-earned money in such a product then do not go with Chinese manufactured products, they do not care about Indian customers and their policy is just to sell their cheap product invest a little more, and go for other products in the same category. That is what I am doing returning back on Amazon. It will give you the hand issue sometimes after installation.

I was in search of a good and affordable router when my Tp-link router (TL-WR840N) started having issues with 40Mbps fiber broadband connection. It was having frequent internet dropouts and had to restart about 5 times a day. It wont stay connected to my PS4 during fortnite gameplay and same experience with movie streaming on Amazon prime and Netflix. Speed drops drastically and make gaming and streaming impossible. Out of frustration i started looking for a good and affordable router. Came across Tenda AC10 and read lot for reviews from around the world mentioning its excellent price to performance ratio. And i decided to giver it a try. Performance: I am really surprised with its performance and wifi coverage. Now i am getting full wifi coverage in every corner of my house and with full speed for 40 Mbps. No drop in speed at any distance within house. I measured the wifi strength at different point inside house with wifi analyzer app. The place where my PS4 was placed had a signal strength of 75% with old Tp-link router and with Tenda i am getting 98% wifi signal strength. I was getting a speed of around 10 -15 mbps which also drops below 5 mbps with Tp-link. No such issues with Tenda i am getting 40Mbps download and upload speed consistently in every corner of the house. Its been few days and i never experienced any internet dropouts. Overall best performance. And yeah i am using 2.4Ghz band for now and in my observation, the 2.4Ghz band performance of AC10 is better than other brands upto 5K price range (which i tested - Tp-link, Asus, Netgear(these are routers my friends own)). I feel 5Ghz band performance is weaker in tenda compared to Asus and netgear. Not bad for a dual band affordable router though. But there is definitely space for improvement. 2.4 Ghz performance in untouchable by any of the above mentioned brands. So people just getting this for 5Ghz please keep that in mind. I am using just the 2.4Ghz for now and more than happy with the performance. There is a maintenance and reboot feature. I've set it to reboot daily at 3 AM. Which will restart the router and makes software runs smoothly. This router can work as a repeater and AP as well. Beamforming+ is a nice technology and boost signal strength. I cannot comment much on security. I find it similar to other routers from Tp-link or Asus or Dlink. It has WPA2-PSK encryption. I saw settings for other security features inside app, which is nice. This model is without USB. Installation: Installation was a breeze with the tenda quick installer (thru browser). I had set it up in under 10 mins. Just had to connect with ISP to update MAC address of new router. After setup you can download the Tenda app and control the router functionality thru it. Lot of useful features like signal strength selector, Parental control etc. Packaging, Delivery and Build Quality: Delivery was quick with 1 day delivery. Thanks to Amazon and seller for quick turnaround time. Product came in its original box without any extra box or bubble wrap outside. This is due to Amazon's go green initiative. Anyway my product reached safe, so no complaints there. AC10 have a very good plastic cabinet. Sturdy with matte finish. Antenna is a bit wobbly, but no impact on performance or no need to worry about it. 12V1A AC adapter with Indian plug type is included. There is a small Ethernet cable as well as quick install guide. I am really happy with its performance. Thanks for reading.

I have a 150 Mbps broadband connection. I wanted a dual band router to support my Hathway supplied router which does not support the 5GHz band. Decided to go for this Tenda router after reading so many positive reviews. I am writing this review after a week's usage. I live in a 2 BHK house on the Ground floor with another unit on the First floor. I was hoping to get a router which can cover both ground and first floors. The router was installed on the ground floor bedroom. Full strength signal was receivable only when i was in the same room as the router. If i step out of the room for even a few feet, i could see signal strength dropping. If i try speed test from the other bedroom, the maximum speed i could get was 97 Mbps with two closed doors. If i opened up the doors it would go up to 120 Mbps max. On the first floor, the signal strength dropped drastically even experienced signal drops on a few occasions. Speed test results indicated a maximum download speed of 20 Mbps while on the first floor - the 5GHz signal was not strong enough to reach the upper floor and i had to connect to the 2.4GHz band. As a comparison, i ran speed test while was in the same room as the router. 2.4GHz band returned 120 Mbps (which i suppose is kind of the theoretical maximum) and the 5GHz band returned 160+ Mbps. As a side note, i did connect to the gigabit lan port from the hathway ZTE router to the Tenda router before running the speed tests. Verdict - The router is good in this price range, but i don't think that the claims posted in the product description page lived up to my expectations. The illustrations regarding beam forming and the strong dual band wi-fi signal passing through multiple walls are slightly misleading. Evidently, in this case, more antennae does not mean better coverage and speed.
