It was not Coax compatible like we were led to believe. Although it is Xfinity compatible, not everyone has fiber.

Hi JamesS,
For Cable Internet services that require Coaxial connectivity, you will first need a Cable Modem to convert that Coaxial connection into Ethernet before it can be connected to a router, such as the Archer AX20. Once you have a cable modem installed, simply connect the Archer AX20 to it using an Ethernet cable and follow the included Quick Installation Guide to enjoy Wi-Fi 6 Connectivity for your home.
Our support team is always happy to help answer any questions you may have. Please feel free to reach out using any of the resources included with the product, or from our official website, and we'll gladly have a Support Agent follow up with you directly.
Thank you, TP-Link Systems Support

Liked that it can serve as router and access point. Used the mobile app to set up and was very easy. Could also use a web browser. Speed w Wi-Fi 6 was a nice upgrade from what we had before.

Purchased this a couple of weeks ago because I hooked up Arlo Camera outside and I need 2.4 not 5. This does the trick, I only use it for my cameras outside. Easy to set up and operate.

Hi GregM,
Thank you for your review. If you are having difficulty obtaining Internet access after setting up the router, your modem's MAC (Media Access Control) binding may need to be released and renewed so it can provide an IP address (and Internet) to the Router. This can typically be done using the following steps:
1. Unplug the power from both your router and cable modem 2. Unplug the coax cable from the modem 3. Re-connect power ONLY to your cable modem 4. Wait until the cable modem is fully booted, then re-connect coax 5. Re-connect power to the router and connect it to the modem via Ethernet
This process should release and renew the MAC binding, so your modem can provide connectivity to the router. If you need assistance with any of these steps, please get in touch with our support team using the resources included with the product or our official website, and we will be happy to have a Support Agent follow up with you directly.
Thank you, TP-Link Systems Support

A new firmware update stopped the VPN client setting from appearing and you cant go back previous versions. I bought this for $60 so I kept it and bought an Ax3000
