TP LINK Archer C2 router

Had a surprise visitor stop by. Former coworker who left us to go work
for a local telco to handle their networking. I use them at home. I'm
rural and use their wireless towers.

I mentioned that I am having an issue where I hook up a laptop directly
and I get fair speed checks. However if I use my router it goes to heck
and is pretty much unusable. He said he could sell me one direct but I
could buy it on my own too. He said they stopped using NetGear, etc and
recommend their customers get
TP LINK Archer C2
Any comments on that model?

He also hinted that there may be something different coming to my house in
2018. Since they trenched a fiber next to my mailbox I'm a little giddy.
