TP-Link Smart WiFi 6 Router (Archer AX10) – 4 Gigabit LAN Ports, Dual Band 802.11AX Router, Beamforming, OFDMA, MU-MIMO, Parental Controls, Dual-Core 900MHz Processor, Works with Alexa

I have only had this a little time. I will share that the product worked as expected. I was able to connect the router to hotspot and share it in client mode without issues. I was very happy because I was trying to do this with an outdated DD-WRT router which only supported the G band wifi. The old DD-WRT router I had was too slow for the purpose and couldn't keep a constant signal. This TP-Link was able to keep good speed / no connection drop (as of now) and has surprised me in its ease of setting up thru a wizard and a PC browser thru the LAN port. All was easy going and no issues. I was happy that wifi could be turned off and it just shared the connected wifi via ethernet only as I wanted. The price is cheap compared to me trying to source a new router and the hassle of flashing DD-WRT to one. As long as it holds up without connection drops, the price was well worth it to me. So far happy.

Have used this extensively at home and on the road for months with zero issues. Connected to every hotel, airport, and coffee shop I’ve tried, with solid speeds — usually, only a function of the host network. Extremely easy setup and configuration, as router or hotspot. I consistently use the web-based interface over the Tether app, only because I don’t want yet another app to have to manage. It’s straightforward and intuitive, and I am up and running within just a couple of minutes wherever I go. Compact and lightweight, takes up very little space in my kit. Firmware also successfully updated.

I'm currently on a vacation trip and have been using this device nightly when I'm in my hotel rooms. I've been to five hotels in six days and I've had this router set up each night. While I was still at home I practiced both using the router in both tethering and router modes, but tethering is the preferred method I use in my hotels. This is also what I'd suggest users utilize if they are in public spaces such as a cafe/coffee shop, in school, or a public library. Tethering runs the local Wi-Fi signal through the router, but the user connects devices like computers and tablets to the router's SSID, not the available public Wi-Fi signal. An app on my iPhone (there is also an android app) guided me through the setup steps. Each new local Wi-Fi network is scanned by the router, the local password is entered, and the router then allows me to connect to that signal through the router SSID. The router uses both the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands and given the proximity of all of my devices to the routers, I've been able to use either band with similar results. The router rarely drops the signal and thus far I've not had any issues. I'm logged into the 5 GHz band as I type this review. TP Link has a winner with this product. It is simple to setup, easy to use, reliable, and affordable. I believe I paid $39.99 USD for my device, though it may go on sale during various Amazon sales events throughout the year. I purchased my router just a couple of weeks prior to my trip, so I didn't have the luxury of watching price fluctuations. The router is lightweight. I don't have the exact weight, but it's just a few ounces. It easily fits into my computer bag, and takes of very little room. It has a USB A slot on the back which can be used to access USB flash drives, but I mostly use that port as a passthrough charging station for my tablet. I had used a competitor's travel router for a few years prior to purchasing this device, and I found that other router more difficult to use and less user-friendly. Maybe I'm biased towards TP Link as I've used other networking devices made by them and am partial to the TP Link brand. In days when hackers can be anywhere, having a travel router is a simple step to keeping private data private; TP Link offers a safe, reliable, and affordable option for basic computer users to protect themselves while using public or unsecured networks.

The AX1500 (WIFI 6) is overall a good router so far. + Great feature set for the money + Performs well (mostly, see note at the end + WIFI 6 & Affordable - Seems buggy still, particularly the smart connect feature. I am partially leaving this, honestly, to forewarn people but also hope that TP-LINK sees it and updates the firmware to fix this. There is a feature on this router (smart connect) which allows it to decide which devices connect 2.4 GHz and which 5 GHz so that they can coexist on your network. There is one significant issue with this I have seen though you should absolutely know about - I have seen it completely obliterate wifi speeds on (ironically) WIFI 6 devices. For some reason if I connect my desktop (which has AX WIFI) and turn this feature on, it reduces my download speed by ~170 mbps (!). I have tried enabling it and disabling it again - same issue, not sure what's happening. One other (and more minor) thing to mention - DHCP address reservation, if you have a more obscure device (I've found this occurs with a raspberry pi) the management interface won't recognize it as a "connected device" if it shows in the device list as "UNKNOWN." This seemed for me to cause some issues with this, but worked fine when I manually entered it's MAC address so not really a big deal. Aside from this odd smart connect issue, no complaints really. If for some reason I figure out it isn't that (although I can't find any other explanation) or it get's patched in a firmware update then I'll add back a star.

الراوتر ممتاز جدا حل مشكلة التقطيع التي كنت اعاني منها وكذلك المدى يصل إلى جميع الغرف كل ذلك بسعر رائع

Very efficient device

It's a very nice router it's work fine I like it very much

Best travel router for this wifi generation. Compact and literally plug-and-play for connections, once you’ve set up the admin component. This router has the same capabilities as full-size and far more expensive ones. Tether app is well designed and easy to use. Get it on sale, and use the savings to buy a travel case (Amazon sells many specifically designed for this router).
