· Cover your home with fast and reliable wireless online connectivity with the Archer AX55 AX3000 Wireless Dual-Band Gigabit Router from TP-Link. Supporting 802.11ax Wi-Fi connections, this dual-band router is designed to transfer up to 2976 Mb/s over the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands for smooth 4K video streaming, online gaming, and video chat experiences. Beamforming and OFDMA technologies help to ensure strong connections to compatible devices. Expand your wireless coverage by using additional OneMesh-compatible routers and other devices as satellites to eliminate dead spots, operating with a single network ID (SSID) for a seamless connection as you move from room to room. There are also four Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports available for smart TVs, video game consoles, and other wired network devices. The Archer AX55 router includes TP-Link HomeShield protection, which scans your network for threats and offers a comprehensive list of parental controls. Use the TP-Link Tether mobile app quickly set up, manage, and monitor your network.
· High-Speed Wireless Performance
· Featuring four powerful external antennas with a dual-core processor and 512MB of memory, the TP-Link Archer AX55 is designed to transfer up to 2402 Mb/s over the 5 GHz band and 574 Mb/s on the 2.4 GHz frequency. Beamforming concentrates the signal while OFDMA simultaneously communicates with Wi-Fi 6 compatible devices for strong and efficient wireless connections.
· OneMesh Compatibility
· Eliminate dead spots by using OneMesh-compatible devices as satellites. Mesh networks use a single network ID and will automatically switch devices to the strongest signal, providing you with a smooth, uninterrupted experience as you watch streaming videos, browse the internet, and play games while moving across your home.
