AC750 Wireless Portable Nano Travel Router(TL-WR902AC) - Support Multiple Modes, WiFi Router/Hotspot/Bridge/Range Extender/Access Point/Client Modes, Dual Band WiFi, 1 USB 2.0 Port

I travel for work. So I am in hotels often. I LOVE the ability to plug a gadget in, and point it to the access point, and have all my devices automatically connect up. This was necessary to satisfy the problem of Google chromecast, where it requires a phone to operate, and they must be on the same wifi network. (Most hotels isolate devices to keep guests secure from each other) I bought the small nano first. And I later purchased the larger version (TL-WR902AC). So I will provide the pros and cons of each here. Please also note that I am EXCLUSIVELY using this in hotels in wi-fi only (never plugged in the RJ-45 ethernet) as a wi-fi access point for all my tech, I've not used it for anything else. There are many other features and capabilities that are not accounted for here. Nano: + simple setup, great wizard. + SOOOOO tiny + Works great with Marriott/SPG hotels (and everywhere else I've tried it) - Struggles with multiple devices, the single band antenna seems to be a big restriction in speed and multiple devices. - Slow speeds Big brother (AC902 model) + Much cleaner and more stable connections - handles all my devices brilliantly. + Far more features (that I don't use) + Larger than the nano (picture for reference) but still so small that it's perfect for travel - Setup is not so streamlined. Additional hardware toggle on the device makes it more confusing. (I use the middle setting, "Share Hotspot") Side-notes: I used this exclusively at a single hotel before upgrading, so the differences noticed between the two models were all at the same property. Both devices get a bit warm, but nothing concerning, and it's not at all surprising given how tightly they are packing them. Both are small enough that the only reason I would recommend the nano over the big brother is if you need something to fit in your pocket, or purse, and don't have high expectations in terms of speed.

Easy to set up and small enough to put anywhere. My camper blocks Wi-Fi (metal walls), so I placed this by the door and now I have my own little Wi-Fi hub inside. Works great and solved the signal issue instantly.

What a piece of junk. I bought this because I wanted a media server for my VR headset. There is a USB port for this exact purpose. First, you need to know that this reviewer is a computer guy of 40+ years. Setup was a bit difficult, but after an hour it was up and running. After a week, the nightmare began... Fail#1: One evening, I went to watch a movie and EVERYTHING was gone -- all 300GBs just vanished into thin air. The drive had been wiped out. After days of data recovery attempts, I recovered a small portion of the content. Fail#2: I decided to use my expensive USB SSD to store the media. All went well for a few days ...until I wanted to add some more movies to the SSD. After removing it from the router, it would no longer work properly on the laptop. I could only move about 1.5GB at a time before it would lock-up the SSD. After several hours of messing with the destroyed SSD, I gave up on it. Fail #3: I had an old 300GB USB HDD that I filled completely with content. And guess what? The router wouldn't locate the movie folders on the USB HDD drive. After wasting even more time, I guessed that it might have failed to locate my data because there was a small 9GB empty non-active partition on the drive in addition to the main partition. What a dumb limitation. Arrg! Windows had no issue recognizing this USB HDD drive, but the router could not. So now I'm sitting here writing this review while I'm reformatting and reloading the entire 300GB of data on the third drive yet again. If this router eats this third drive, I will update this review. The lessons I learned are that you should NEVER connect non-backed-up data to this router, and never connect an expensive SSD drive to this router. I honestly wish I had never purchased it. UPDATE: My 300GB drive is going to be too small for future use, so I purchased a new 2TD USB HDD. I formatted it and loaded the 300GB of data, and the router did NOT see the data. Really!!?? After some more experimentation, I decided to reformat the USB HDD with the 4096 format allocation unit size (which is crazy inefficient for large media files), and the router DID find the files! So, I writing this update while yeat again moving the same 300GB of data yet another time! To save YOU some time, here a quick tip: **Do NOT format any USB drive with any other allocation unit size than 4096 if you expected this router to be able to see the data. Or at least, format your drive with a test folder to see if this router can see it before dedicating all the time to load the content. ** Here's hoping this is the final saga in this sad story. (not so) FINAL UPDATE: Well, everything was great - was able to watch some movies!! ....until this morning, when the media server "just quit" in mid-movie. The WiFi bridge was still working just fine, but the media server magically disappeared. So, I was faced with the difficult decision of either returning the router to Amazon or experiencing the massive joy of taking a sledgehammer to it. But alas, I took the responsible route and am returning it to Amazon. After all that has happened, I didn't want it to damage my sledgehammer also! In all fairness, if you don't need a media server, and NEVER intend to connect any USB drive, you should be very happy with this product -- the Wifi was rock-solid. (another no so) FINAL UPDATE: Well, I THOUGHT the media server "just quit", but actually after moving the USB drive back to the computer I realized that this absolute POS router killed a BRAND NEW $70 USB DRIVE at the hardware level. It no longer spins up. Arrrg! It just gets worse... THE FINAL UPDATE! The nightmare is over! Just received my RavPower (ironically, the same exact model number, scary, aye?) and got everything set up and running as a bridge and media server in under 10 minutes! Super happy again!

I'm going to start with this is an awesome little router for what it does. I would buy it again. It's pretty simple to setup. Comes with the USB charger. The issues I found with this unit. It has VERY aggressive settings for power and channel bandwidth. It will automatically set the power output to high. It will set channel bandwidth to 40MHz (on 2.4GHz). I had an issue with one of these units being used as a wifi bridge to access the entry door configuration from a phone/tablet at a 1000 room hotel. The signal was so strong, it was interfering with the Zigbee network on any room facing the interior of the building where the front door was. The building was a large cube with rooms on the outside and inside, the inner rooms were all facing the atrium. I have purchased one for my own use and I have found it also flooded the 2.4 so bad, if our baby monitor was near it, it would knock it offline as well(2.4 video, not IP). There are no settings in the current firmware 0.9.1 0.3 v008a.0 Build 230504 (2023-05-04 release date) (this review is April 2025) to turn off 2.4 GHz and only use 5GHz. Overall, I would recommend setting the channel bandwidth at 20MHz on 2.4 manually.

Molto versatile. Ottimo prodotto.

Es muy bueno para solucionar cuestiones de señal de wi-fi ya sea para usar como repetidor, punto de acceso hasta modo cliente para usar como antena de algún dispositivo que solo cuente con puerto ethernet. Fácil de configurar y tamaño versátil para colocar o pegar en cualquier superficie por su peso ligero.

Just works as it should.

Can't remember getting it

This modem is perfect for travel. It connects easily to the hotel's host server and is impressively compact. The iOS app makes setup quick and hassle-free. I also appreciate the added security features, which provide extra protection while browsing the web. Highly recommended for frequent
