    AC750 vs HOOTOO streaming media
    3 Stars
    AC750 vs HOOTOO streaming media
    Ive Had a Few days to configure the settings and Use the Media Share features. I would not recommend it mainly for this purpose. I bought it for streaming movies and music from an external harddrive to tablets, phones etc. Due to the firmware i would say you are better off using the HOOTOO tripmate nano vs this for media streaming to portable devices. Its a bear to work with and the DLNA doesnt seem to work well. Most devices will not access the files thru DLNA (UPNP) for some reason or another, It shows up and sees it...but will not acess it. I found out why...to access the media to stream you need to use a program ( ES FILE EXPLORER PRO) via google play store, to use the Login feature via FTP to stream media. Only at that point is is able to stream media to your favorite player ( VLC is mine ). Example. Launching VLC and navigating to the NETWORK , it shows up in the Network menu as a media share , but when you click on the files to play with VLC or Androids Default VIDEO player it will not access the file, the loading icon just spins...So you have to use ES file Expl Pro to find the FTP server login using the Admin account then you will be able to play media files. VERY annoying. Secondly Do not unplug the Harddrive before ejecting it though the WEB interface. For some odd reason the firmware gets mad....and will not show the drive up again till you plug in another drive...yada yada yada...So if you want to stream movies, to your android devices, be warned there is a process. Login to web interface via IP adress, Then plug in hardrive then configure, when done log back into Web interface, EJECT drive...before powering down the UNIT. All that ontop of farting around with getting the DLNA to stream. What ever happend to plug n play? Anyway Everything else works fine...I like the fact it outputs 5ghz and 2.4ghz wifi. This would be fine ifyou are using a PC, but for tablets and such....theres a curve The Hootoo nano doesnt get mad at hot swapping hardrives or just powering down fast...and the DLNA streams perfectly on VLC without logging inAdded a picture of ac750 after i got it to stream using ES File Exploerer pro to play via VLC....

    We used this on a recent cruise to split an internet package, and save money. It requires a bit of time to set up, but worked well on Princess. We also purchased a battery pack, so we could move around the ship with this router. It fits snugly in your front pant pocket or hoodie. Brilliant! We will use this again, and again.

    Traveling can be a whirlwind of experiences, from the breathtaking sights to the unique cultures. But in today's digital age, staying connected is equally crucial. On my recent 10-day European cruise, the TP-Link AC750 Wireless Portable Nano Travel Router proved to be an indispensable companion, ensuring I remained connected without a hitch.

    First and foremost, the portability of this device is unmatched. Its compact and lightweight design meant it easily slipped into my carry-on, occupying minimal space. Unlike other routers I've used in the past, the TP-Link AC750 didn't feel like an additional burden. Instead, it felt like carrying a portable charger.

    Setting up the TP-Link AC750 was a breeze. I've had my fair share of experiences with routers, and I can confidently say that this was one of the most straightforward setups I've encountered. The instructions were clear, and within minutes, I had a secure Wi-Fi network up and running. The intuitive interface ensured that even those less tech-savvy could get it running without any hiccups.

    Now, let's talk about the real game-changer. Cruises are notorious for their exorbitant internet charges. Typically, you'd pay a premium for each device you connect. With the TP-Link AC750, I circumvented this entirely. I paid for a single device connection and then used the travel router to share that connection across my laptop, phone, and tablet. The savings were substantial, running into hundreds of dollars over the duration of the cruise. Not only did this device keep me connected, but it also proved to be an economical choice.

    Performance-wise, the TP-Link AC750 exceeded all my expectations. Despite its small size, it packed a punch. The dual-band AC750 Wi-Fi ensured a robust and fast connection, allowing for smooth HD streaming. Whether I was video calling family back home, streaming a movie, or simply browsing, the connection remained consistent and reliable.

    The TP-Link AC750 Wireless Portable Nano Travel Router is a must-have for any traveler. If you're planning a trip anytime soon, do yourself a favor and get this device.

    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!

    Very disappointed with TP Link quality. You can go thru to change the password but you cannot log into the router.

    Changing settings for the router is a complete pain and take hours.

    I bought this because I thought this will be like other TP Link products I bought and will be easy to set up.

    Instead it is just a useless box.

    A good handy gadget for when travelling. The device is very compact, with an easy setup and allows the sharing of a wifi connection (such as a hotel or cruise shop) between multiple users.
