Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual wireless data throughput and wireless coverage are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors, including building materials, obstacles, volume and density of traffic, and client location. Actual network speed may be limited by the rate of the product's Ethernet WAN or LAN port, the rate supported by the network cable, Internet service provider factors, and other environmental conditions.

Use of Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and features including OFDMA, 1024-QAM, HE160, TWT, and MU-MIMO require clients to support the corresponding features. 160 MHz bandwidth may be unavailable in the 5 GHz band in some regions/countries due to regulatory restrictions. The double channel width refers to 160 MHz compared to 80 MHz for general WiFi 6 routers. Actual power reduction by Target Wake Time may vary as a result of network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors.

25% faster of 1024-QAM refers to the speeds compared to WiFi 5 (802.11ac) 256-QAM.

§Actual internet speeds are limited by the internet bandwidth access from an Internet service provider. Both the 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN port and the 1 Gbps WAN/LAN port cannot be concurrently configured as WAN ports.

*HomeShield includes the Free Basic Plan. Fees apply for the Pro Plan. Visit https://www.tp-link.com/homeshield for more information

**All devices need to support 802.11 Wi-Fi protocols.

***A separate modem or gateway may be required. PPPoE, Static IP, and Dynamic IP are supported. PPTP and L2TP may also be supported under certain configurations.

1. Use of WPA3 requires clients to also support the corresponding features.

2. This router may not support all the mandatory features as ratified in the IEEE 802.11ax specification.

3. Further software upgrades for feature availability may be required.
