TP-Link - Archer AX20 AX1800 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 Router - Black

I bought this item knowing it probably wasn’t going to make a difference going into it but easily the best 100$ I’ve spent. It doubled my range and download in every room compared to the original spectrum router. I no longer need an WiFi extender.

Got this for my in-laws and has been working great so far

I needed a faster, new version to my wi-fi system and this does the job nicely

Short review - This is a "mid range" wifi 6 (ax) router that will work and exceed most people's expectations for its price. Details - This is a wifi 6 router, which means it supports the new wifi convention ax, the previous ones were known as ac, n, g which have now been renames as wifi 5, 4, 3. This means that newer devices that are wifi 6 compatible will really benefit from the new tech which will clear up any congestion on your home network. But if you are using older devices that only have an ac wifi card in your device, do not worry, ALL wifi 6 routers are rated for backwards compatibility. With Wifi 6 , it also comes with MU-MIMO technology, which in laymans terms means you will be getting much better stable connections between all your devices. The 1800 in the ax1800 stands for up to 574mbps on 2.4ghz channel and 1201 mbps on 5 ghz channel. Frankly I am not sure what the difference between the Archer AX20 vs AX21, since both are listed as Archer AX1800. This might just be something to differentiate between retailers. As far as I can tell on their website the specs are the same across the board. Ethernet ports are rated for gigabit, so thats going to be plenty for most of residential users. The USB port is unfortunately only 2.0, but can still hook up your hdd for a network storage solution. I have this placed in a central location in the house, coming from from a dual band ac600 (300/300) router, I am getting amazing speeds, but importently I am getting 5-4 bars in all 7 rooms in the house, 4 on the same level as the router, with 2-3 walls in between, and the 3 rooms in the basement. I am slowly getting more wifi 6 devices, such as my smartphones, laptop (you can easily upgrade wifi cards in your laptops), ps5 and I am getting amazing wifi speeds. I pay for the 1000 mbps internet service, and at best I was getting around 450 on the 5ghz channel about 10 feet away, with one wall. Now on the TP Link AX20, I am now getting 800-900 on the 5hz channel about 10 feet away with one wall.

no problems so far, bought this to replace a linksys N300 that we bought 5+ years ago and our wifi speed instantly quadrupled to something much closer to what we were paying for, was pretty easy to set up and we're using every single port

High quality router. I got this as it was recommended by Wirecutter and have not been disappointed by the range or the speed

A total of about 12 devices are always connected at both 2.4GHz and 5GHz band in my environment, the quality is stable. It is a reliable product without the problem of like getting hot.

Wifi 6, easy to install, almost double the distance my previous wifi couldn't get when using the 2.5GHz, and a constant speed when using 5G, Great deal that I got and fast shipping, Best Buy never dissapoints
