Overview
The TP-Link Archer AX55 is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router with 5 Ethernet ports and a USB port. It supports EasyMesh for expanding coverage with compatible devices and can run as either a router or access point.
Who it suits
Suited to households wanting a straightforward Wi-Fi 6 upgrade without needing 6 GHz band support. It also fits users who want multiple wired devices connected, since it offers 5 Ethernet ports at up to 1 Gbps.
Reasons to consider it
It includes Wi-Fi 6 support on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, 5 Ethernet ports for wired connections, and a USB port for shared storage or peripherals. EasyMesh support allows for mesh expansion if needed.
Limitations and compatibility checks
There is no 6 GHz band, so it does not support Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7 features. It also lacks PoE and wired backhaul support, and EasyMesh compatibility is limited to other EasyMesh-certified devices rather than guaranteed cross-brand mesh performance.
