TP-Link Archer A6 V3 1200 Mbps Wireless MU-MIMO Gigabit Router

Exact product as described by TP-Link. Excellent features as well as quality and service. Speed, range, connectivity and everything workink like charm. Specially 5ghz speed and range is better enough comparing other budget routers. Worth buying.

Writing this review after 7 days of heavy usage.\n\nI purchased Tenda AC10, D-link 825 and TP-Link Archer C60 and none of them are upto the mark,\n\nTenda AC10 has range issues, though they claim that AC10 has beam-forming but not upto the mark\n\nD-Link 825 has wifi drop issue, I tried 2 routers and they did not perform well. The router you get is made for Russia which was discontinued and Dlink customized the firmware and imported. The only advantage of this is it has USB drive which can help you with FTP, Printserver and 4G dongle. If you are not a heavy user you can go for this.\n’\nTP-link C60 is not a Gigabit router, If your internet speed is less than 100 mbps you can go for this, but I recommend TP-Link A6 or C6 for the price and value. Archer A6 and Archer C6 both has 5 antennas(4 external and 1 internal) \n\nThere is no Hardware difference in Archer-C6 and Archer-A6, you can go with any of these. Archer-A6 is the latest one. Support team says Archer C6 is better than A6,\n2.4GHZ will have longer range than 5Ghz, if the router is nearby or in same room use 5HZ else if you are far from router use 2.4Ghz. Use TP-link T3U adapter for better results,\nI have 50 MBPS plan and when I run the speedtest I get 90-100 MBPS in ookla and 49 MBPS on 2,4Ghz(not sure why the speed is double on 5Ghz network)\n\nGo for this..

Adding this review after month of use. This is best router for home use and when you have many connections too. Current usage 3 laptops, 5 phones, firestick, cctv. If you want to extend the range you can use Tplink wifi extender with this one to smoothly configure with this device for any range not reachable. It doesnt come with usb internet dongle connection, so have to rely on your service provider. But since mobile hotspots can work for you on emergency you dont need to spend extra for USB internet port. The router has support for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies. Can figure difference of performance after replacing my old router with this one.

Hello everyone do you need best router just go with it. I purchased this router to extend my wifi range and its doing its job perfectly. First of all this router has pros and cons we will discuss about it. But before buying router please check which router suits your modem and what are all the requirements you needed and don’t just waste money by buying higher model router until and then it is useful for you.\n\nThe router is same as shown in the picture and i received US version 2.0.\n\nPros :\n \n1) This dual band router is perfect for 5ghz which is showing amazing speed test results,depends upon what plan you had subscribed with your service provider.\n\n2) we can change the direction of antennae to receive signal in which direction we want. It is beam forming technology.\n\n3) I done my router setup within 10 mins. So easy to install and use.\n\n4) in box provided ethernet cable is cat 5E model which is not cat 6 model. My service provider suggested me to use cat6 ethernet cable but im using the given cable in tp link itself it is good only. Connect in LAN 1 for best results.\n\n5) parental controls, guest networks, and few extra features gave edge to this router.\n\n6) This black design is really eye catchy and weightless.\n\nCons:\n\n1) The 5ghz range is very short you can’t get access to that entire speed if you and your router are in long distance. But don’t worry it will automatically switch to 2ghz speed if 5ghz speed is low.\n\n2) The 2ghz speed mentioned in the product description is not same as expected. My plan is 150mbps i received only 49 or 50mbps speed in 2ghz. I also don’t know whether this is the full speed for 2ghz.\n\nConclusion:\n\nIt is really best router and I’m really confused with a6 and c6 model later i came to know a6 is newly launched technology so bought it. This router is best for 5 persons with 400 sq.ft to 500 sq.ft of area. If more walls in between user and router position user can’t enjoy full 5ghz speed so plan according everything and buy it. Wil try to update after few months of usage thank you.

It stops working after 27 days. \nIt was working fine before, but suddenly it stops working. \nWhen I connect ethernet cable (from Internet service provider) directly to my laptop then it works fine which means that there is a fault in this router. \nI tried resetting and rebooting it many times. \nDue to lockdown, TP-link doesn’t have any service center open and they are not answering over customer care.
