It helped with some streaming issues I had. Connected with my 650 extender and expanded to the back building, 300″ away for streaming.

Pros: Wide range signal – used to use an extender, no longer a need. Very easy/quick to set up – took maybe 10min including peeling off the fingerprint protectors Multiple LAN ports Automatically moves devices between 5ghz and 2.4ghz based on performance Wifi 6 (might matter 5 years from now?) Multiple antennae to make me think I can point them at the areas I want to have more signal and make a difference Cons: It’s pretty big, make sure you can fit it/display it where you were planning. Overall Review: I recommend this. I bought it because my ~8yr old router kept bouncing devices from the network, and I had limited range, especially to the basement. I set up this new one with minimal effort and all problems are gone. It just works very well.

Pros: Very easy to set up and the product comes with antenna already attached, etc. Just super-easy to install and get going; I had everything working in less than 10 minutes. Cons: Too much of its management is locked behind their smartphone app, it would appear. Overall Review: Unless you have some specific IT need, this router should suffice for just about every household, at its price.

Pros: Easy set-up, fantastic range, and plenty of quality of life features (e.g. Parental Controls, Reboot Schedule, ability to turn off the LED lights). Cons: Not a fan of the glossy piano black design, as they tend to attract finger prints, but likely won’t be an issue – since there’s little reason to touch it after initial set-up. Overall Review: My journey started like many others reading this review. Our old Wi-Fi routers keep dropping devices and constantly needs rebooting. It can no longer withstand our ever growing number of smart home devices. Do I need a mesh router? Maybe just a Wi-Fi extender? What in the world is Wi-Fi 6?! After navigating through endless “best router 2021” search results, reading countless router reviews, I felt more lost than when I started. At this point, several reviews had pointed me to the TP-Link AX5400. I felt like I just needed to take the leap and boy am I happy with my decision. Massive improvements in Wi-Fi coverage and finally hitting max download/upload speeds, even in the far corners of my 3 story condo. If your situation sounds anything like mine, take the leap… you won’t be disappointed.
