Before the threadcrapping starts – be aware that there are many users that are not satisfied with the service they have received from Tanga. Order processing and shipping can be very slow. Response times from customer service can also be very slow. Some folks reported that they received clearly used units when they were sold as new on a previous deal. Caveat emptor – let the buyer beware.
All that said – if you can put up with the slow service/shipping and understand that this is a recert/reburb/USED unit that will likely need to be factory reset upon receipt – and as long as it works – you are buying a highly-rated $150-$200 AC1900 router for under $50.
