(Bargains) TP-Link Archer AX1500, Dual-Band - Wi-Fi 6 router

The TP-Link Archer AX1500 is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) router designed for residential network environments requiring increased capacity and efficiency. It operates simultaneously on the 2.4 GHz band, providing speeds up to 300 Mbit/s, and the 5 GHz band, which supports data rates up to 1201 Mbit/s, resulting in a maximum combined wireless speed of 1500 Mbit/s. The adoption of Wi-Fi 6 technology, including OFDMA, allows the router to manage multiple concurrent data streams more effectively than previous generations.

Internal processing relies on a 1.5 GHz tri-core processor, supplemented by 256 MB of RAM and 16 MB of flash memory for stable operation and configuration storage. Wired connectivity is established via one Gigabit Ethernet WAN port and four dedicated Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports, all supporting 10/100/1000 Mbit/s transfer rates. Four external antennas facilitate reliable signal distribution, while features like Beamforming and MU-MIMO focus coverage toward connected client devices.

This device incorporates WPA3 encryption support and an integrated SPI Firewall for network protection. Management features include Quality of Service (QoS) for bandwidth prioritization and parental control options, utilizing URL filtering and time controls. The router also supports secure remote access via built-in VPN server capabilities for OpenVPN and PPTP connections.
