The TP-Link AV1300 kit costs £101.99 and is rated 4.2 stars from 1,123 ratings, with three gigabit ports, dual band Wi-Fi and passthrough sockets.

It takes ninth because it is the dearest kit here and its own two Wi-Fi figures — 300 plus 867 — add up to less than the 1300 in its name, which takes its numbers from two different technologies.

## Questions people ask

**Why is the name 1300 if the Wi-Fi is 300 and 867?**

The name is a nominal rate; the Wi-Fi figures are the wireless halves.

**Does it really do 1300Mbps?**

Not in any house, and not from the parts it lists.

**How many LAN ports?**

Three gigabit sockets.

**Will it work in an old house?**

A buyer says it depends on the electrics, which is the honest answer.

**Why is it ninth?**

Because it costs the most and the name does not survive its own specification.

**How many ratings does it have?**

1123 at the time of collection, averaging 4.2 stars, with 61 per cent five-star and 9 per cent one-star.
