Maximum wireless transmission rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Range and coverage specifications along with the number of connected devices were defined according to test results under normal usage conditions. Actual wireless transmission rate, wireless coverage, and number of connected devices are not guaranteed, and will vary as a result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects and obstacles, 2) network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location, network complexity, and network overhead and 3) client limitations, including rated performance, location, connection quality, and client condition. MU-MIMO capability requires both the router and client devices to support MU-MIMO.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
After a support call to the ISP, and hours of troubleshooting, I discovered that enabling QoS Device priority slams the throughput into the dirt.
So, my advice, do not use QoS Device Priority if you want an individual device to have access to the full bandwidth of your service.
UPDATE1: So after about 6 months, the WAN port went bad. Totally stopped communicating with the modem.
Tried the WAN aggregation feature, which is supposed to turn LAN1 into an additional WAN port. The feature did not seem to work.
Amazon replaced the item and all is good.
This really is a great router. I recently upgraded my ISP Link to 400mbps, and decided to get a better router to go along with the upgraded service since I have so many devices on the network now.
Once the ISP enable the modem, installing the AC5400 was cake. Obtained DHCP address quickly, and was immediately available at the management address for configuration.
I walked through the quick setup to get online quickly.
Setup was simple and quick. You can enable all of your SSID's from one convenient page.
I configure the 2.4 for my smart home devices (better range, speed is not important), one 5GHz band for my streaming devices (TV, tablet, phone) and a hidden 5GHz band for gaming (when not hardwired)
I have my PS4 hardwired, so I tested speeds between wireless (130Mbps) and wired (190Mbps).
I am impressed with the throughput. All devices connected seamlessly during the transition (left credentials same as previous).
The management interface is clean and easy to navigate.
Lots of nice features between Parental Controls (although I wish there was slightly more granular control (lowest access timeout is 30min) and support for OpenVPN is interesting.
You can Bind MAC's to the ARP table, and can create nice generic Firewall catergory filters.
Overall I'm happy with this purchase.
Hardwired PC Ookla test on a 400Mbps link got clocked at 483Mbps, so I'm not sad at all.

Hardwired PC Ookla test on a 400Mbps link got clocked at 483Mbps, so I'm not sad at all.
*Very noticeable range and signal strength improvement compared to my 8 year old router (Asus RT-AC66U).
*No drops on connection while watching streaming videos, youtube, surfing the web, gaming, etc.
*Very easy to configure graphical user interface. You can just set it and forget it.
*If you have Alexa Echo, you can use it to send specific commands to this router to change its settings.
*Its tri-band and not dual band... much more versatile in accepting wireless connections.
*Very easy set up also on the hardware part... just attach the antennas, plug-in the power adapter & ethernet cable, and power it on.
Cons:
*The TP-LINK AX11000 is just around the corner which supports the new AX wifi-6 speeds & WPA3 wifi security encryption. If you want to future proof despite the higher cost, you might want to get that instead.
*It's expensive but it does use pretty good hardware (Quad-core 1.8Ghz CPU, 1GB RAM, etc.)
*Lack of more gaming centered features compared to Netgear and Asus offerings.
*TrendMicro antivirus & home security is only for 3 years and not lifetime. I wish there's a way to switch this to BitDefender that other router offers once the TrendMicro 3 years subscription expires.
Other Thoughts:
This is TP-Link's 1st gaming router and its pretty expensive. I'm a tech enthusiast and usually will get the best I can get. I was looking at the Netgear's XR700, and Asus ROG AC5300.. which looked pretty good on paper but has more negative reviews than this router so I ended up getting this one instead.
I was kind of torn between getting this one or waiting for the TP-LINK AX11000 but I kind of really need the upgrade quick. But thinking about it again, I game on a wired connection and I don't really have any devices that uses the AX wifi bandwith. Even if I do end up getting devices that uses AX signal in the future, 2.4Ghz & AC 5Ghz bandwith is plenty for my current and most likely future needs. This router covers my entire house already without the need of using mesh/repeaters/extenders.
Most of all, after doing massive downloads (Gigs of data - mostly Steam games), gaming, torrenting, watching 4k streaming videos, surfing the net, chatting, voip, etc... this device has did it all without breaking a sweat. It hasn't dropped any of my connections (both wired & wireless) and its been very stable. This is something rarely present on new released products that's why I'm hesitant to replace this with the new AX11000 offerings from TP-Link, Asus, or Netgear. I might end up with a defective product that is rushed released and not ready for prime time.
TP Link, I usually buy Asus or Netgear products when it comes to home networking but since their top of the line atm have more bad reviews... I'm taking a chance with you guys. I hope this router last a long time. In fact, the router it replaced (Asus RT-AC66U) didn't die or anything. It's just that as my network expands and my wireless needs grows, I have to upgrade. Don't let me down!
FYI:
I also have this same review on N3W3GG

Esto me llevó a comprar el Router Archer C5400X, este router solucionó todos mis problemas de intermitencia en el wifi. El software de TP-Link no lo había usado pero no he batallado para conectar los equipos (incluyendo MAC).
Lo que me gustó:
- No tuve problemas para instalarlo, desactive el wifi del modem de Telmex y por cable lo conecte al Router. Solo seguí las instrucciones de instalación sin mayor conocimiento técnico.
- La aplicación Thether es sencilla, estable y fácil de usar. Yo no había usado TP-LINK, pero me gusta.
- No he tenido ningún problema con el router, el equipo trabaja bien y sin problemas, ni complicaciones.
- Es muy fácil administrar la conexión de equipos individualmente, con 3 opciones de wifi (1 de 2.4hz y 2 de 5hz)
- En el caso de los juegos en linea, ya no tengo problemas de desconexión.
Lo que me sorprendió:
- Ya no tengo problemas de wifi intermitente, puedo hacer mis llamadas por internet sin problema.
- El Router tiene mucho mayor alcance, duplicó el rango, ahora tengo wifi en toda la casa (3 pisos) sin necesidad de un extensor de wifi.
- La capacidad de tener un control parental es una maravilla... con esto puedo controlar mejor en cada equipo conectado a que los niños hagan su tarea limitando su acceso a paginas de juegos, Facebook, YouTube, Tiktok, etc.
- La mayoría de mis equipos tenían capacidad de conectarse a la red 5hz, esta dice tener un rango Menor de cobertura, pero en mi caso la señal funciona perfectamente inclusive en el 2do piso lejos (router ubicado en el 1er piso).
Lo que encontré diferente a mis expectativas:
- Pensé que las antenas se doblaban, pero no en el Router Archer C5400X, son fijas.
- En las fotografías parece como si la parte de arriba y parte de las antenas tuvieran colores gris plateado, pero es el caso, en realidad es todo negro, que al final me gusta mas así.
- Tengo una bocina Alexa conectada al WIFI y funciona perfectamente con el wifi del Router C5400X, pero encontré que el software no es compatible para hacer que Alexa ejecute cambios en el router.
Vale la pena la inversión, si fue caro pero administra el Router administra muy bien el wifi. Si quieres dejar de batallar para entrar a tus conferencias de trabajo, jugar en linea sin que se detenga la imagen a cada rato, si quieres tener mayor control con la cantidad de tiempo que tus hijos usan internet, este equipo te ayuda a hacerlo.

- Tengo una bocina Alexa conectada al WIFI y funciona perfectamente con el wifi del Router C5400X, pero encontré que el software no es compatible para hacer que Alexa ejecute cambios en el router.
Vale la pena la inversión, si fue caro pero administra el Router administra muy bien el wifi. Si quieres dejar de batallar para entrar a tus conferencias de trabajo, jugar en linea sin que se detenga la imagen a cada rato, si quieres tener mayor control con la cantidad de tiempo que tus hijos usan internet, este equipo te ayuda a hacerlo.
Perfect for security cameras! I wanted to extend the internet access to the outdoors and outbuildings without having to setup an access point or bridge. I already have an access point system setup that will be removed now.
I was slightly taken aback when the box arrived because it was huge! Despite reading the description which notes the size of the unit it just wasn't registering how big this baby is. I mounted it centrally in the house, which has a fairly open floor plan and mounted it sideways on the wall so all the antennas face south, which is the direction the signal is needed the most. Great feature that this doesn't need to be set up standing upright and has built in wall mounts for hanging.
I really am shocked at the signal reach. The walls, roof and all framing on this house inside & out are 2x6 cedar with stucco exterior so there's plenty of metal mesh in the walls to skew it. Although only one wall to go through in 3 directions due to the open floor plan of the home, to the west it has to go through 3 walls before hitting the outdoors and in that direction standing a good 300 feet away outside, I have darn near full signal on the ipad. In the furthest corner of the property I have 2 bars signal on the iPad so I think that is pretty incredible!
Setup was incredibly easy, I've probably set up 8-10 name brand routers over the years with home business network serving many devices as well as access points, bridges etc. This was by far the easiest, shockingly so! I followed the quickstart guide for setting up wired connection to my desktop and then enabled the wireless. I also downloaded the app prior to install but didn't end up using it for setup. It basically worked out of the box and without any changes by me using default settings. There are lots of settings to play with and the interface makes it easy to do that.
The management interface is quite a treat in comparison to those offered by Dlink, Cisco, Netgear - this is modern, clean, intuitive and easy to read & understand. I love it! I am not one to rely on default settings for management I prefer to login to it via IP address and manage from there and due to the network usage here I often need to tweak, change or add to the network so this is a really nice feature for those who do the same.
I haven't had the need to use the app to manage it yet, perhaps in future.
I was and still am slightly confused by the login procedure, my confusion comes from the login required for tp-link account and then the login on the router itself. I just haven't had time to sit and read the manual in full yet. The only other drawback is the size - it's not only big but kind of ugly and I can see it plainly where it is hung but I'll put up with it for the service it gives! Highly Recommend.
Helped with speed and stable wifi connection
Mobile app is I’m useful to quickly adjust settings when needed
Before this router I would get about 200-450 mbps download and 18-35 mbps upload while plugged in drectly to my landline. On wifi about 70 mbps download and even less upload. But when everybody was using the internet in my household the ping would skyrocket and speeds slow down even when plugged in directly to the modem! I got this device and set up the wan aggregation ( Two ethernet cables plugged in to router connected to modem.) Also then found out about their Qos software settings. You can legit set your networks to prioritize your devices always so when everybody is on using internet you still get a stable consistent connection which is amazing for me.
So with wan aggregation, Qos settings optimized and the device placed properly my download speeds are usually at a consistent number between 300-800 mbps depending on the time of day/night with the exact same ms (ping) in games as when I was hardwired direct. Also getting about 50-110 mbps upload. WHILE USING WIFI INSTEAD OF THE HARDLINE. I dont understand how this has happened or how in the world this makes sense but its what im experiencing. Im assuming I have a bottle neck with my cat7 cables or my modem or idk what but I have better faster internet speeds, more stable and consistent connections and less ping while on wifi vs. when I was hardwired in directly.
TBH its kind of wack 'cause it doesn't really make sesne and its been really puzzling me for last few months now but Im totally okay with it as I have better internet now because of a wifi router?! I should mention that my speeds while plugged in when ran through this router inexplicably increased a good chunk too and was faster than the wifi speeds however Im running my systems upstairs now so I had to go to wifi and all I can say is that this router is 100% worth it if you can afford it and are looking specifically for faster, more reliable and more consistent wifi internet speeds and ping.
Nunca suelo dejar reseñas a menos que el producto sea caro y/o útil.
Mi primera impresión es que es ligeramente más pequeño de lo que imaginé, creí que sería una monstruosidad y pesado, pero no, al contrario es de tamaño medio casi del mismo tamaño que mi módem de telmex ligeramente más grande, solo que las antenas lo hacen ver más grande.
Las instrucciones muy fáciles de seguir, manuales en español, la aplicación e interfaz, aunque yo lo cambié a inglés para mi gusto. Tiene como 20 idiomas disponibles.
Me sorprendí en la facilidad de instalación. Lo conecté a mi módem, desactive la red wifi de mi módem para solo dejar disponible la del router. Hice mi cuenta, cree una contraseña y listo. Puedes acceder a toda la interface del router. Y la app de tplink es muy buena. Tienes demasiados puntos útiles en su configuración. Es adaptable con Alexa, y por ejemplo puedes hacer que te envíe notificaciones a tu celular cuando detecte un intruso, o una nueva conexión, un nuevo usuario, conectar cámaras de seguridad, termostatos, etc. en fin un largo número de aplicaciones que aun desconozco.
La señal es de lo mejor, anteriormente había comprado un repetidor de señal que no te da la misma potencia en lugares lejanos, y la conexión principal se vuelve más lenta. Un ejemplo. En mi cuarto en un segundo piso y el módem en el primero, la señal no llega o llega muy corta y muy intermitente,consumia muchos datos de mi cel ya que perdía wifi. En cambio este router me da 100% de red en toda la casa, y con conectividad al 100%. Lo que ahora me da a considerar que puedo instalar en mi cuarto juegos, Xbox, pc, o simplemente una mesa y mi laptop para trabajar sin interrupciones. La señal es super potente y con toda la potencia tal y como si estuviera parado a lado del módem.
Lo que me deja sorprendido es que, siento que ahora mis dispositivos funcionan diferente, es decir, un poco mejor. Usumente mi celular tardaba ligeramente en cargar páginas o videos. Y ahora va todo muy fluido, de igual manera en mi pc. No encuentro ni un corte de red, es como si el flujo de Internet fuera más limpio y directo. Y puedo jugar juegos de celular, como cod online, tft, mobile legends, y la conexión es de lo más estable sin lag.
Definitivamente es una de las mejores inversiones que he hecho.
