Designed for three-bedroom houses, the TP-Link Archer AX73 AX5400 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 Router is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router that installs in minutes and offers strong parental controls and basic network security protection. It delivered solid 5GHz throughput and decent file transfer performance in our tests, but its signal strength could be better.
The TP-Link Archer AX73 Wi-Fi 6 router delivers solid 5GHz Wi-Fi performance and good parental controls, but it lacks multi-gig ports and link aggregation.
The latest generation of Wi-Fi technology brings faster speeds, less lag, and higher capacity, enabling more simultaneous connections on your home network.
Drastically improved speeds enable smoother streaming, faster downloading, and gaming, all at the same time. Need to go faster? Hop on 5 GHz with full speed-boosting features to stream multiple 8K videos without lagging.
Enjoy stable Wi-Fi connections in all rooms, even in the kitchen and bedroom. High-Power FEM, 6× antennas, beamforming, and 4T4R structures combine to adapt Wi-Fi coverage to perfectly fit your home and concentrate signal strength towards your devices.
Easily handle dozens of devices streaming and gaming at the same time — OFDMA and MU-MIMO combine to future-proof your home network by providing greater capacity to connect more devices.
The slant rectangle atop of the scaled armor design provides a contemporary aesthetic. The vent design takes up 167 cm² (25 in²) of its top surface for improved heat dissipation, unleashing the whole machine's full power.
