Legal Disclaimer

Claims about 802.11ax Wi-Fi technology are based on comparisons of the expected maximum theoretical data rates for one spatial stream using 802.11ax at 160 MHz (1201 Mbps) as opposed to one spatial stream using 802.11ac at 80 MHz (433 Mbps) as documented in IEEE 802.11ax draft 3.0 spec and IEEE 802.11-2016 wireless standard specifications, and require the use of similarly configured 802.11ax wireless network routers. Use of 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard requires clients to also support the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard.Actual wireless data throughput, wireless coverage and number of connected devices are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors, including building materials, obstacles, volume and density of traffic, and client location.HT160 requires client device that supports 160 MHz bandwidth on Wi-Fi.802.11ax 2x2 160MHz enables 2402Mbps maximum theoretical data rates, 3X faster than standard 802.11ac 2x2 80MHz (867Mbps) and nearly 6x faster than baseline 1x1ac (433Mbps) Wi-Fi as documented in IEEE 802.11 wireless standard specifications, and require the use of similarly configured 802.11ax wireless network routers.Up to 75% lower latency” is based on simulation data of 802.11ax with and without OFDMA using 9 clients. Average latency without OFDM is 36ms, with OFDMA average latency is reduced to 7.6ms. Latency improvement requires that the AP and all clients support OFDMA. Saving clients' battery power requires clients to also support the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard. Actual power reduction may vary as a result of network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors. Use of OFDMA requires clients to also support OFDMA.*Free lifetime subscription to TP-Link HomeCare™ is included with purchase on select TP-Link models at no additional cost. “Lifetime Subscription” refers solely to the life of the purchased device and cannot be transferred. TP-Link reserves the right to modify the service and feature at any time.

    142 customers mention66 positive76 negative

    Customers are mixed about the connectivity of the router. Some mention that their connections haven't dropped, video hasn' t buffered, and the 4 antennae are a plus. However, others say that WiFi 6 will drop and reconnect a lot when they are playing mobile games on it. It frequently drops both WAN and WLAN at random times in the evening, and one band will start dropping out occasionally. It would drop out for a couple of seconds and pop back up causing a lots of disconnects. That said, it consistently shuts off multiple times during the average week.

    Might be the best AX (wifi 6) router of 2019
    Bought to replace an aging R7000 Netgear Router ( developed a habit of "DNS server is not responding" error. )TL;DRPros:-price-ports-no reboots required after setting changesCons-no default admin / admin account like old routers-cant turn off QOS ( hasnt effected my network though)-lesser known brandSo this purchase was the culmination on about 40 hours of research. I was a die hard Netgear owner for about 15 years. i decided to try something new for a few reasons.1. new routers are stupidly expensive. most Wifi 6 routers with any reasonable hardware are going to run $270+2. firmware issues are reported for both of the popular Netgear and Asus routers. lots of negative reviews.3. "gamer" price increase just because it is branded as "gamer"4. sometimes trying new things is good.I settled on this TP-Link for a few reasons1. Wifi6 (AX####) if im going to get somthing new, i might as well get the newest technology (even know none of my devices can use it yet)2. it had a usb 3.0 ( most routers do at this point but it was on my list anyways due to network storage)3. less that $2004. gig+ Ethernet ports5. its a name i know of ( top 5 networking companies Netgear, Cisco, Asus, TP-Link, D-Link)Anyways on to the review.Design: pretty slick. thinner / smaller than i expected. antennas swivel with a little effort, but stay put when your finished moving them. attaches to the wall with two screws ( not included ) the holes on the back of the device are roughly 8 1/2 inches apart. has an option to turn the LED's off at certain timesSetup: initial log in was done with a cable and my laptop, the rest of the setup was completed once i replaced it on the wall where my old router was ( hard wires / cable modem location ) pretty standard set up. my router was defaulted to 192.168.0.1. once i got to the page i was prompted to set up a password. i later changed my network to use 192.168.1.1 ( like my last router) there was some quick set up first run type questions it asked. i later went in a specified permanent ports for my wired desktops which was a breeze. i also updated the firmware which was painless. one major pro with this was you can make changes to the router configuration, and you never need to reboot the router ( firmware being the only rebooting action of all the settings i changed. )Speed: wired connections were reading 500mbps to the xfinity.speedtest.net which is what im paying for speed wise. my google pixel 2 wireless speed test to the google site was reading 320 mbps. i cant complain here, so im pretty happy with that.networked storage: i plugged in our families 256GB photo archive thumbdrive to the router, was getting consistent 30mbps transfer from desktop to thumbdrive. pretty happy with that, as its about as fast as i get when its plugged into my desktop.All and all im pretty happy with it, will keep this review updated as time goes on.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente router de entrada para WiFi 6
    Reviewed in Mexico on May 25, 2020
    Podría decir que es el mejor router por el precio.
    Le llevo usando cerca de un mes con una tarjeta WiFi 6 en mi PC y los resultados son los siguientes.
    Pros:
    -Buena cobertura(Entiendan que para la banda de 5GHz hay una potencia máxima de transmisión por ley, no importa si el router tiene 1 o 100 antenas y sí, la distancia de 5GHz es relativamente corta unos 20m SIN obstáculos y con paredes unos 5m máximo)
    -Instalación sencilla.
    -Aplicación para administrar la red.

    Cons:
    -El QOS gratis es dinámico, es decir sólo permite seleccionar a qué dispositivo le das prioridad, más no permite asignarle un ancho de banda a cada dispositivo. El QOS de paga sería un equivalente a servicios como WTFast o similares, que redireccionan el tráfico de tu red para optimizar la latencia. En mi opinión, hay mejores servicios para el mismo propósito por un mejor precio. Además, redireccionar todo el tráfico de tu red con fines de seguridad suena contradictorio, no? Uno activa su vpn terceros cuando va a jugar y listo, no la tiene activa todo el tiempo.
    -Para los que tienen duda con lo de WPA3, el router no lo tiene y NO significa que no sea un router oficial, el estándar aún no está completo y los parámetros no se han definido. Si alguno de ustedes prefiere pagar 500 USD por otro router con un estándar incompleto, adelante. De igual forma esos routers van a bajar drásticamente de precio en un par de años cuando se migre a WiFi 6.
    -La temperatura, la ficha técnica menciona que la temperatura de operación es de 40°C, pero les aseguro que fácilmente debe estar a unos 55°C la mayoría del tiempo y se siente al tacto, en mi caso no me ha dado problemas de estabilidad, nunca se ha caído el enlace, pero definitivamente es algo que afecta el desempeño. Eso es un problema de firmware y diseño de ventilación/disipadores y es el único defecto considerable que le veo.

    En resumen, ¿Por qué comprar este router?
    1.- Lo más importante es que tengas dispositivos con antenas WiFi 6, de no ser así sólo desperdicias tu dinero. El estándar es retrocompatible, pero el dinero extra lo pagas por los beneficios y si la mayoría de tus dispositivos en casa son WiFi 5 o anteriores, mejor compra un router ac de última generación por el mismo precio, más ancho de banda y con firmware bien optimizado.
    2.- Crees que comprar un router te va a solucionar el ping. Estás muy equivocado amigo, en ese caso es mejor cambiar de ISP.
    3.- Haces cosas como subir o leer archivos muy pesados a un disco duro que está conectado al router, ese es un muy buen motivo. Para conseguir un router así.
    4.- Si lo que quieres es que no te de lag cuando alguien se conecta, busca un router con 2 bandas y un QOS del tipo que sea, dejas la banda 2.4 para invitados y la de 5 para tu PC, consola de videojuegos,etc. Seleccionas tu dispositivo como el de mayor prioridad (en QOS dinámico) o le asignas un ancho de banda mínimo (en QOS estático) y listo. Reitero, el router no tiene que ser de última generación si no tienes dispositivos de última generación, busca el router que se adecúe a tus necesidades y compra sabiamente.
