Archer AX55 provides Wi-Fi 6 speed - 2402 Mbps on 5 GHz and 574 Mbps on 2.4 GHz band to ensure smoother streaming and faster downloads.

Enjoy smooth gaming, video streaming, and live feed simultaneously. OFDMA makes your Wi-Fi stronger by allowing multiple clients to share one band at the same time, which cuts latency and jittering.

Behind the Wi-Fi 6 technology structure are the advanced Qualcomm chipset and high memory. Enjoy fast connections with minimal latency even under a heavy load of transmission. Every click for website links and online playback on your laptop and phone just responds quicker.

No heat-ups, no throttles. A larger heat sink and refined case design cool the Wi-Fi 6 system and enable your network to stay at top speed in more versatile environments.

4 high-performance external antennas boost Wi-Fi signals throughout your home. Beamforming technology detects devices and concentrates wireless signal strength towards them, especially for previously hard to reach outlets.

Thanks to the USB 3.0 port, you can easily share files between connected devices by plugging into an external drive. You can even make it your personal cloud storage and access it from outside securely.

Want to build a whole-home Wi-Fi? Archer AX55 supports OneMesh to form seamless whole-home coverage, preventing drops and lag when moving between signals.

With TP-Link HomeShield, enjoy advanced security features delivering a safe environment that protects your family and network's data and privacy.

The latest Wi-Fi security protocol, WPA3, brings new capabilities to improve cybersecurity in personal networks. More secure encryption in Wi-Fi password safety and enhanced protection against brute-force attacks combine to safeguard your home Wi-Fi.
