Overview
TP-Link builds the Archer router around a Qualcomm processor, dual band Wi-Fi and four gigabit LAN ports for everyday homes. A USB port shares a printer or drive, and Alexa can control features by voice.
Gigabit wiring, USB sharing and QoS cover the needs of most small households. The older Wi-Fi standard caps wireless speeds for newer phones and laptops.
Who it's for
Families replacing an aging ISP router and sharing a printer. Large homes or heavy gamers should look at mesh or newer generation routers.
Pros and cons
- Four gigabit LAN ports
- USB print server
- QoS and parental controls
- Older Wi-Fi standard
- USB 2.0 only
- Antenna details not listed
Performance notes
Wireless speed splits between the two bands, with five gigahertz carrying fast nearby traffic and the other band covering distance. QoS gives priority to chosen devices when the line is busy. Range depends on walls and placement.
