- General
- Brand: TP-Link
- Model Number: ARCHER C20
- Product Name: Archer AC750 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router
- Color: Blue/White
- Security
- Data Encryption: true
- Encryption Type: WPA, WPA2, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK (The security protocols or certification programs that protect the Wi-Fi network.)
- Firewall Type: SPI (The method the firewall uses to filter and process data to increase network security, primarily by blocking malicious traffic requests while allowing legitimate traffic through.)
- Network
- Quality Of Service (QoS) Traffic Prioritization: true (Allows a user to manage a device's network performance by configuring the types of traffic that receive top priority for transmission. High priority functions and applications receive maximum network performance, while low priority traffic receives minimum performance.)
- Band Technology: Dual (Refers to the number of frequency bands used to wirelessly transmit an internet signal. For example, dual-band devices may use one 2.4 and one 5 GHz band, while tri-band devices may use one 2.4 and two 5 GHz bands. Multiple bands also provide more flexibility for designating connected devices to specific band use.)
- Ethernet Standard: 10/100 (Each standard is a variation of the IEEE 802.3 set of computer networking technologies known as Ethernet. New versions evolved to include higher bandwidth, different physical media, and other new and improved features. Standards are often denoted by speeds (in Megabits per second). For example, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
- Number of Antennas: 3
- Frequency Band: 2.4 GHz, 5.0 GHz (Bands may be grouped into categories such as low- and high-band VHF (Very High Frequency), low- and high-band UHF (Ultra High Frequency), or certain frequency channels (measured in MHz or GHz). Generally, higher frequencies transmit information faster but have shorter range than lower frequencies.)
- Wireless Networking Standard: Wi-Fi 5 (The wireless networking standard used by the device. Each iteration of the standard developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance corresponds to an existing IEEE 802.11 protocol; for example, standard 802.11ac (or AC) is termed Wi-Fi 5. Refers specifically to the standard the device is designed to use, but ultimately determines product interoperability and backward compatibility including previous versions.)
- Wireless Standard: AC, N (The wireless networking protocol used by the device. Each iteration of the protocol is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association. Denoted by letters following 802.11 (802.11a, 802.11ac, etc.), each version, published in alphabetical order, encompasses all previous versions.)
- Number of 2.4Ghz Streams: 1 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. Because the 2.4 GHz band is used to transmit wireless signals to a wide variety of devices, there is often high amounts of traffic on that stream. But with multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 2.4 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a desktop computer, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that use more data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 5.0Ghz Streams: 1 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. The 5.0 GHz band provides high speed, short-range data transmission and typically has less traffic than the 2.4 GHz band. With multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 5.0 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a streaming media player, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that need less data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Ethernet Switch: true (Connects multiple devices to expand the Local Area Network (LAN).)
- Transport Protocol: PPTP, L2TP, IPSec, DDNS (The protocol used for connection-oriented transmissions, flow control, etc. within the transport layer of the network.)
- Certifications Listings & Approvals
- ENERGY STAR Certified: false (Devices carrying the ENERGY STAR service mark, such as computer products and peripherals, kitchen appliances, and other products, generally use 20% to 30% less energy than required by federal standards.)
- Features
- Integrated Modem: false
- Wireless: true
- Ports
- Number Of WAN Ports: 1 (Number of devices able to be connected to the Wide Area Network (WAN). This type of port may simply be labeled "Internet," and it allows the device to share its internet connection with all devices connected to it via LAN ports.)
- Port Type(s): RJ-45 (USB 2.0 connects external drives, gaming controllers, smartphones, MP3 players and other accessories.USB 3.0 transfers data faster than USB 2.0, but only when used with USB 3.0 devices.USB Type-C provides fast speeds and versatile power, featuring connectors with identical ends that plug in upside down or right side up. Adapters allow for video as well as backward compatibility.Thunderbolt provides ultra-high bandwidth for fast data transfer between devices featuring a Thunderbolt or MiniDisplayPort connection.HDMI allows you to connect a projector or display HD media on your HDTV or monitor.Media card slots allow you to transfer photos from your digital camera or camcorder.)
- Number Of LAN Ports: 4 (Number of devices able to be connected to the Local Area Network (LAN). LAN ports allow wired connections to other networking devices (wireless access points, range extenders, etc.) in order to share the internet connection received through a WAN port.)
- Speed
- Wired Speed: 100 megabits per second (The maximum rate at which data is transferred between a network device and router using an Ethernet cable.)
- Wi-Fi Speed: 0.733 gigabits per second (The maximum rate at which data is transferred between a network device and wireless router.)
- Dimensions
- Product Height: 1.4 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)

Q: can this be used as a wireless repeater
A: Yes I see an option in the management portal to use it as a wireless access point or a range extender.
Q: Is this router compatible with Verizon Fios?
A: Yes, the Archer C20 can be used with any Ethernet-based Internet source. Please note that it cannot be used to replace an entire FiOS gateway (modem+router), however it can be used in conjunction with your FiOS gateway or ONT, if you have this connection type.
Q: Can this be used for gaming too?
A: Yes, this can be used for gaming.
Q: do I need a motem for this or can I just plug it up for wireless
A: Yeah, you'll need a modem. This unit is a router wifi combo.
A: That depends on various factors, including your Internet speed plan, how you plan to connect your PS4 to the router (wired or wireless), whether your PS4 supports 5GHz (PS4 Pro), and if using WiFi, how far the PS4 is from the router, and how many obstacles are between them. Regards, TP-Link Support
Q: Does this router works for service providers in India
A: As long as the Internet service type is provided via Ethernet, it may work. ^RS
Q: Will this router be able to put out 200mbps speeds for WiFi connections?
A: Wireless-to-wireless under 100ft apart--yes. Upstream is limited to 100MBPs, so your wireless-to-outsideworld is capped at 100. Weird, right? I returned the unit back to BB once I found that out :-(
