Adding AXE5400 to Hardwired Deco XE75?

You certainly could, if you want; the AX73 gives you the option to customize its SSID(s). Just bear in mind that since the Archer won't technically be using Deco mesh technology, core mesh features (e.g., fast roaming) may be affected, and some client devices may not roam as effectively between the

TP-Link boycott

It is not as clear as I would like is to be. I do not think that they locked down fw upgrade too far; it's that they made it hard enough to not be worth it for an average Joe. I used this table to search for ax (short for 802.11ax, aka WiFi6, up to 9.6Gbps transfer speed) within 5GHz models. You can

Camera security options gone?

I’m locked out of Child Protection (thread) on TP-Link WiFi6 router AX5400/AX73. Can’t use it unless I subscribe! I tried flashing OpenWRT on it, but it’s not an option. For now, I changed DNS, but it’s bypassable (i.e. anyone can change DNS on their device), so it’s a bandaid and not a solution. I’

Spectrum sucks and I am looking for an upgrade

so the strict NAT thing is almost definitely because spectrum's router has a garbage firewall that doesn't handle UPnP right. i had the same exact problem for like a year before i realized it wasn't my ISPs fault, it was their router. honestly the move everyone's telling you is right — get your own

Recommendations for a modem and router for condo unit.

for under 1000 sq ft you definitely don't need mesh or anything fancy. a single good router will cover that no problem. for the modem — Motorola MB8611 or Arris SB8200 are both solid and on xfinity's approved list. either one supports the speeds you're looking at. buying your own modem also saves yo

My PS3 kills my download speed.

My router is an Archer AX73. Also figured out the problem my MTU was too high on my PS3. It was set to 1500 MTU. Changing from 1500 MTU to Automatic fixed the problem instantly.

Why do TP-Link get a hard time from people,and routers made by Asus are often praised....

All TP-Link i have stopped receiving updates in the first 2 years since I bought them. And I have quite new ones like Archer AX73. I suspect they do everything in their power to let your router opened to Chinese state hackers simply by not providing updates anymore as soon as possible and hiding thi

Using AX73/AX5400 with Frontier Fios Fiber 500

I’d read somewhere a recommendation of doing a hard reset when switching from access point to wireless router - is that a thing? And, if so, how do I do it? I agree with that recommendation. Hard reset is the same as returning/resetting to factory defaults. Not familiar with your device but it's gen
