There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Although I liked the Deco, it was a bit harder to set up than it should have been. I will separately comment on that product instead of including it here.
Suffice to say that I could never achieve the full 500 Mbit/s speeds I was paying for and instead would get in the mid 400's if I was lucky and often it fell to the high 300's. I put devices that didn't need the bandwidth, such as IoT light switches, thermostats, etc. on the 2.4 Ghz band. But still, even with my computer 4 feet from the Deco, I could never hit 500. The forcing function for me was the Deco did not have a USB port and I wanted to hook my 6TB external hard drive to the router so it would be accessible by my iPad and two computers "over the air".
The first thing I noticed was how easy it was to set up. I used the tether app and it did not skip a beat. Very intuitive and it just worked, first time, out of the box when I followed the guidance of the app on my phone.
The second thing I noticed was the speed. Routinely getting 520-540 Mbit/s speeds from the devices where I need it, like Apple TV, iPad, and my laptops.
The third thing I noticed was the signal strength. I guess that is to be expected since it has 4 antennas instead of the hidden one in the Deco's little white cylinder that is aesthetically pleasing but just simply not as powerful.
The Archer AX3000 also has two processors so whether it is signal strength, processing power, or a combination of the two, every device in my house that needs to have a high-speed connection has it - no matter where I am at within the 1800 sq. ft. structure.
I place the router on top of a tall bookshelf and I like that I can see the LEDs without standing on a step stool. The Deco didn't permit that because of where the LED was located; I had to stand on the couch to see if the light was red or green.
Both the Deco and the Archer AX3000 were good at keeping devices connected without dropping them and with staying connected to my cable modem. My old Apple AirPort would drop its connection to the modem about 3-4 times per week, and that is what prompted me to start looking for something more reliable. Also, the Time Capsure (2TB hard drive) was starting to faintly squeal on occasion, and I think that was the fan. It tended to get very hot and it was clear to me that it was being taxed too heavily with so many devices. It started it's life in 2012 with only 5 connections (iMac, 2 phones, 1 iPad, 1 printer) and this gradually increased to 5X as many devices. I am today at 27 and counting and the Archer AX3000 has no trouble keeping up.
I like the Tether app and the ability to give names to my connected devices, to see what band they are on, and to assign icons.
Connecting my external hard drive was also pretty straightforward and most of my issues were in understanding how to enable Win 11 and my ipad to use SMB and FTP to access the HDD - not any failing of the router.
The price was reasonable ($135) and I could not be happier with the upgrade. Now, to put my Deco X55 on eBay and find it a new home. It was a good little device for the 6 months I had it, but my home is small enough that it doesn't need a mesh device and satellites, and now that I have compared it to the Archer AX3000 it is clear that the Deco cannot match the performance. I pay for 500 Mbit/s through my ISP (Spectrum) and I am finally getting not only the full 100%, but actually about 110% in most cases.
Performance
The standout feature for me has been the 1 x 2.5 Gbps Multi Gigabit port which provides ample bandwidth to handle streaming, gaming, and large file downloads simultaneously without a hitch. WiFi 6 technology ensures more efficient data encoding, leading to faster speeds, greater capacity, and reduced network congestion. I've noticed a marked improvement in the performance of my smart home devices and streaming services.
Range & Coverage
The range is another area where the Archer AX55 Pro shines. It covers my entire 2,500 sq ft home with consistent signal strength. The four high-gain antennas and Beamforming technology effectively focus signal strength towards connected devices, enhancing coverage and stability.
Setup and Interface
Setting up the router was straightforward. TP-Link's Tether app is intuitive, making initial configuration and ongoing management quite simple. The interface allows for detailed control over your network settings, from basic operations to advanced routing and security features.
Security
Security features are robust, with WPA3 encryption, advanced parental controls, and comprehensive threat protection. It offers peace of mind, knowing that your network is guarded against potential threats.
Considerations
However, there is a slight caveat; the router does run a bit warm during peak usage. While this hasn't affected performance, it's something to keep an eye on if the router is placed in a confined space.
Conclusion
Overall, the TP-Link AX3000 (Archer AX55 Pro) is an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their home network with the latest technology. It provides a powerful, secure, and scalable wireless network environment. Ideal for tech-savvy households where multiple devices need to operate seamlessly. The minor issue of the router running warm is not a dealbreaker but something to consider when setting up your home network layout.
Install was simple (did not use the Tether app, did it the fashioned way), had to change the router address since a lot of my devices have a set IP address and my old router used 192.168.1.1 and TP-Link uses 192.168.0.1 but it was simple. Actually the whole setup was simple, everything worked first time out and I'm getting significantly better speeds on devices using the A protocol. My old B/G/N devices didn't change much, maybe a 10% increase in speed but that's not the fault of the router. I'm getting my full 200mbps downloads on the A protocol devices and I've never gotten those speeds wirelessly. Now, my VPN does cut that speed down by a significant percentage but always has. I do not use the free ancillary services that TP-Link offers with at least this router, prefer my own security setup and VPN configurations but it's there if anyone wants them.
If this router holds up, I will once again say that I think TP-Link, for homeowner use, is an excellent and economical choice. Install is simple, footprint is fairly small and it's not dropping out at all.

After dealing with numerous settings on that router, going through two TP-Link extenders that ultimately did not resolve the issue, I ended up just getting this router instead. And I have to say, this fully solved my issue and easily surpassed all expectations that I had. For starters, my previous Wi-Fi 6 router only managed around 30Mbps when doing a wireless-to-wireless local file transfer between two devices. Whether doing a local speed test or deploying an SMB share. This router? Easily managed between 750-850Mbps, entirely over wireless. It was such an unbelievable increase in performance that that alone makes this worth it for me.
Setup is as simple as any other router can be, possibly even easier with the ability to set it up with the mobile app that guides you through the entire process if you don't want to set it up via a computer with a web browser. Giving it the same SSID and password as my prior network allowed all of my devices to reconnect to the network as if nothing happened.
Wi-Fi 6, 160MHz channel support, QoS, built in SMB, VPN, Access Control, ability to set it up as an AP, IoT isolation, this router has SO many features for its price, it's insane. The mobile app is great but you do need to go into the gateway on a browser to access its full host of features. There are new features being added to the router still in the form of firmware updates, that the router is still seemingly frequently receiving.
This completely solved my goal of wanting to add networked storage in my home. It's so nice to be able to transfer files between all of my devices without ever needing to physically connect them again. Transferring files completely saturates the 1GbE NIC whether wireless or wired on all of my devices, and still leaves plenty of bandwidth on the router itself to allow other devices to function normally.
There's not even much to say about its internet performance, it's great, of course. If you have a gigabit internet plan, you will have nothing to complain about whether wired or wireless utilizing this router. There are no less than a combination of 15 wired/wireless devices connected to this router and none of them experiencing any issues. I am very happy with this router!
