![]() ![]() Provides a better experience through the Tether app than it does through the web interface. Gets your network running quickly, but could be faster. Lacks more than two streams per band, so congestion is an issue. Includes a built-in VPN server and client along with basic parental controls. Has the lowest Wi-Fi 6 speeds in our standalone router tests, but that’s expected for the price. It’s faster and adds a few extra features, plus it has a great range-a tested 360Mbps at 110 feet outside across the street. Why do we recommend it? It’s a great alternative to the Archer AX11000. We also wish the web interface had a dark mode, but that’s true for all TP-Link routers, not just this one. What we wish it did better: We didn’t choose this router as our top pick only because it’s limited to two Wi-Fi bands and eight streams. Like the Archer AX11000, this router has loads of wired connectivity, a 2.5Gbps WAN port, and TP-Link’s free HomeCare suite, but it lacks the third Wi-Fi band. What we like about it: This router had better Wi-Fi 6 speeds than our top pick in testing but fell behind the Archer AX90 and NETGEAR’s Nighthawk RAX200 powerhouse. Offers a better experience through the Tether app than the web interface. Takes longer than it should compared to the tested setup times on competing routers. Packs a 2.5Gbps WAN port, loads of wired connectivity, and link aggregation. Includes a VPN server, printer sharing, and a free subscription to HomeCare for the life of the router. Has some of the fastest Wi-Fi 6 speeds to date, falling behind NETGEAR’s Nighthawk RAX200 and the Archer AX90. Max internet speed supported: ~2,370Mbps.* Speeds in megabits per second (Mbps) using a Wi-Fi 6 client and an 80 MHz channel. Tested speeds at a glance 5 GHz max speed You get a lot of bang for your buck, and it’s a great alternative to the Nighthawk RAX200 if you don’t want to spend that kind of money on a router. Why do we recommend it? Sure, the AX11000 caters to gamers, but we also list this router as our top pick for other categories. What we wish it did better: It’s missing a few features offered by the similar ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX11000: a VPN client, printer sharing, support for Google Assistant, and real gaming tools. But there’s a lot to love here for the price: free antivirus and parental controls, a 2.5Gbps WAN port, link aggregation if your modem doesn’t have a 2.5Gbps port, and loads of wired connectivity. What we like about it: This wasn’t the fastest router in our tests- it fell slightly behind TP-Link’s own Archer AX6000 and AX90 models. Has a quick and easy setup, so your network is online in no time.Įmploys a decent easy-to-use web interface but a better experience through the Tether app. Provides loads of wired connectivity, multi-gig internet support, three bands, and plenty of streams to help relieve congestion. ![]() Includes a freeTP-Link HomeCare subscription for the life of the router. Falls behind the Archer AX6000 and Archer AX90, but it’s on par with the similar ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX11000. ![]()
