TP-link is reportedly being investigated over national security concerns linked to vulnerabilities in its very popular routers.

Someone in the comment section posted a good question. Which specific routers that TP-Link makes are the issue?

Is it all routers that they make or is this just because they are selling inexpensive routers that have become a large part of the US market?

Does someone have an article that isn’t biased one way or the other that gives a list of effected routers ?

We're literally inside an imperial core.

that gives a list of effected routers ?

If there was a list of effected routers, TP-Link would most likely have patched them.

Most likely old routers still sold on Amazon instead of the latest WiFi 7 models on the website~
