Product Information

Wi-Fi 6E tech might still be in its infancy, but TP-Link is making it a real option with this affordable modern router.

Unlike traditional smart hubs, TP-Link Mesh Technology provides whole-home IoT coverage with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Zigbee integrated into a single system. Since there's no built-in modem with the AXE75, you're advised to connect to a dedicated unit while everything is powered off. When you switch on the power to the first Deco, its LED begins to shine solid yellow, then pulsing blue when ready to set up.

They stand out from the crowd by flaunting the Wi-Fi 6E standard with its tri-band signal, allowing for an ultra-low-latency 6GHz band to provide a dedicated wireless backhaul for streamlining internet traffic back to your modem.

ASUS PCE-AXE5400 is a WiFi 6E PCIe ® card that allows your PC to connect to a WiFi 6E router via the dedicated 6 GHz band. Sticking to our usual method of using open-source software iPerf, we can stress test the Deco set by running multiple transfers over various devices. Its AXE11000 line rate exceeds the Deco Pro, thanks to extra internal antennas and a general improvement to hardware.

Measuring around 686g on the scales, I imagined nightmare accidents of it knocked from a high place and quickly snapping one of the fragile antennas.

We recently got to test a new Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 6e system by TP-Link to see what all the fuss was about these new mesh systems.However, it still wins my favor for being one of the only good-looking Wi-Fi routers I'd be happy to display out in the open rather than trying to disguise it with plants and other trinkets. What makes the Archer AXE75 an even better choice is that while there are now quite a few Wi-Fi 6E routers with more throughput muscle that offer all the bells and whistles, they're much more expensive.
