TP-Link Dual-Band AX3000 Wi-Fi 6 Router Archer AX55 | Wireless Gigabit Internet Router for Home | EasyMesh Compatible | VPN Clients & Server | HomeShield, OFDMA, MU-MIMO | USB 3.0 | Secure by Design

Honestly this is the best router I've ever owned. I've had Netgear, Linksys, and whatever garbage Xfinity rents out. This takes the cake in terms of performance. The range is only slightly less than my previous Linksys router but it makes up for it in speed and stability. Also, the range might be slightly less but it performs better in the areas with weaker signal. It also covers areas better than my Linksys router so I think the beam convergence is much better. The icing on the cake is the Tether app. Makes setup and settings incredibly easy to set and change. Love it! I know recently there are worries about it being a Chinese company and cybersecurity issues and what not but honestly for me, it doesn't matter. The only thing they are going to see if they spy on me is Tik Tok videos and google searches to dumb questions. For me the $80 is worth it.

This is a very popular router for many reasons. It is easy to install, configure, and use, is reliable, has a good track record, performs well, and looks good.It also has one other feature which is very rare in routers these days, and that is a hard-wired switch to shut off the wifi radios. Now, I know that most people love and drool all over themselves because of wifi, but I don't really care for it. I don't like adding even more RF radiation to my environment, and I prefer the security of wired circuits. Yeah, I know I'm old school, but that doesn't make my reasons for avoiding wifi any less true.I like the physical switch because software switches can be compromised more easily. A physical switch requires a physical presence to engage the switch. It can't be compromised from an online or otherwise software based attack.On some occassions, I have to use wifi (phone updates, etc.), so I like having the option to turn it on when needed. This is the only router I have found which has that capability. I think it is stupid that others don't have this capability. When I have used the wifi, it has worked well.I found setup very easy with plenty of instruction available online. It was instatnly compatible with my Spectrum cable modem, and I have have absolutely no issues with it in about a year of use. I cannot speak to the extra security features, as I also have a hard-wired cuttoff switch to air gap the router from the modem when not in use. I also turn the router off when not being used for long periods of time.The display LEDs are very simple and make it quite easy to monitor the status of the router, its connection to computers, its connetion to the modem, and the on or off status of the wifi radios. Simple and effective.I have just bought another one on sale for future use in creating an internal network which will not connect to the internet.I find it to be well designed, functional, and so far pretty much trouble free. Your mileage may vary.If any US company wants to compete with TP-Link for making a really great router, they would do well to study the design of this router. And, for Heaven's sake, put mechanical switches in for critical functions like shutting off various radios like wifi and bluetooth.Good job, TP-Link. I highly recommend this router. (Possible devious backdoors notwithstanding, IF they even exist).

Easy set up, budget friendly and well worth the upgrade. Thank you for fast delivery and such a reliable router. I have mega fast internet speed and if you're looking to buy, don't hesitate. This router connected to all my devices 3+ and it has a very great connection so far so good. Thank you!! Life saver fr

No better than my 8 year old router. Looks fancy with 4 antennas and range is good but I see no difference in day to day operation over my older unit.

What a great way to update an outdated combo modem router. I’ve experienced very slow performance with my 8+ year old Arris 3.0 unit. After much research, adding a separate router appeared to be the way to go. I found this TP-Link Dual Band model on sale that had terrific reviews. While not a computer neofile I haven’t dealt much with setting up routers and modems and I was hesitant about doing so. The reviews made it sound easy. The directions and process was even easier than I expected and I was up and running in no time. My speed has doubled and there are no issues with interference with the old system and modem. The only thing remaining was logging all my devices into the new network which was easy and without any problems. This router saved me hundreds of dollars and substantially upgraded my network’s performance.

Excellent Router! Extremely user friendly, never drops WiFi connection (unless scheduled to auto reboot in the Router's App), and has had zero issues handling the 15+ PC's and services that my family constantly adds to it.Initial setup was easy as expected (I'd say even for someone with little to no networking experience, in my opinion). The included Tether app is extremely informative, very helpful with adding and removing devices from the network, and overall VERY easy to operate and execute what you're wanting to get done.The ability to boost specific devices and add parental controls to ones used by kids is a nice touch, and can be extremely useful and easy to execute when desired.Don't see myself needing a new router anytime soon, but assuming technology will continue to upgrade and change, I will definitely be going with a newer model of the same if available when the time comes!
