TP-Link Archer NX210 AX1800Mbps Wi-Fi 6 5G Router With Sim Slot, Up To 4.67Gbps Download Speeds, Dual-Band WiFi Router, Gigabit LAN/WAN Port, SIM Card Plug & Play, EasyMesh-Compatible WiFi Booster

This is a nice Wifi router. Quick setup. I just put my SIM card in, switched the device on and it was set up to go. When connected to the TP link ‘Tether App’, it is easily adjusted to suit individual needs. It gives a stable connection to the internet with excellent signal strength indoors where I live. Unfortunately, I live in an area where there is only 4G at present. Can’t wait for 5G to arrive! The display on the front is good and tells me exactly what is going on. Like it and can recommend!

Pros: 1) I use it for WFH; mostly video calling and emails. No gaming :) I get speeds of about 120mpbs (download) and 30 mbps (upload) with an Airtel Mumbai SIM. When the router is placed on the window sill, the download speeds go up to 225 mpbps since the 5G tower is in the line of sight, about 150m away. 2) It is compatible to SA (stand alone) 5G technology as well. Whenever it will be rolled out in India, I need not change my router. 3) Quite happy with the performance in the last three weeks or so. Much prefereble than commiting for Airtel Airfibre or JIO Airfibre since you can always change the SIM as you wish to. Cons: 1) One must keep in mind that the 5G technology in India is still NSA (non-standalone); the speeds with SA are much better. 2) The router does not come with external antennas although there are SMA female connectors provided for the same. I am planning to buy a pair and see how the performance improves.

I have had this for a couple of weeks to replace a Zytel MC888 Ultra that failed after just over a year so I decided to try a different make. It performs well inside in the very strong signal area I live in giving a download speed of around 400Mb/s and up to 650Mb/s at quiet periods during the night. It is very sensitive to small movements in its position and you can add or lose 50-100Mb/s by moving the router less than a couple of millimetres. Feature wise it has the full range of settings you would expect of a router at this price level and more than the Zytel although things like port forwarding (or virtual servers as TP-Link call it) is of little use behind the CG-NAT used by most 5G providers. I changed the IP Address range to match that of the ZYtel (from the default 192.168.1.xx to 192.168.0,xx to enable it to be just connected to my existing devices without having to change the static IPs I had set in the devices. I have had a couple of issues with the DHCP server allocating dynamic IP addresses that have already been fixed in some devices and causing a conflict and having to switch one device off whilst manually changing the other device’s IP address. There is a setting to program an automatic reboot at regular intervals and I would recommend that this is done once a day, perhaps in the middle of the night when no one is likely to be using the internet as after a few days without a reboot the router it no longer delivers internet although devices can still talk to each other on the local network e.g. I can still access the drives on my Asustor NAS devices that are mapped on my PC and my Alexas still work and I can still give instructions to turn lights on and off etc which means there must be some connection to the internet or the echo devices wouldn’t work at all. But internet speed measured on my PC drops to zero. Rebooting restores it to normal speed and doing this as a precaution once a day appears to prevent loss of internet access. I tried attaching a dual cabled external antenna to the connectors on the router but it actually reduced the speed I was getting and the unit performs best without it. This could be just because I live in a very strong 5G signal area and it may make more of a difference if the signal levels indoors are lower. I switched the wi-fi off as I use four Mercusys mesh devices string my home, all connected via Ethernet. I only use one of the three RJ45 sockets on the rear of the router to connect the main mesh device and then take two cables from the mesh device to two switches and from there to all my devices to three more mesh units set as access points or connect devices by Ethernet. The router appears to handle the 64+ devices connected to the network without any difficult except for the occasional allocation of an IP address I have already allocated as a static address. However, I learned that the router allocates IP addresses in order starting at 2 so if I set the static IP addresses at 100 or more, there is no risk of the DHCP issuing one of the static addresses and this seems to have solved the problem. There are lots of things in the NAT forwarding settings that you can switch off and if you use VOIP you will want to disable the SIP ALG at least as it caused my VOIP phones to cease to work at all. You may also want to disable the RSTP ALG as well although this didn’t make much difference for me. Most of the other settings you are not likely to need to change although it depends exactly how you are going to use it. Overall, I am quite happy with the router. It doesn’t quite get the speed the Zytel did and having to reboot it regularly is a bit of a pain but I would recommend this device if you live in a good 5G signal area and can’t get fibre.

Bought this unit for our holiday caravan as an upgrade from our old TP Link 6400 4G router. The caravan area can now get 5G and my phone shows 2 bars and delivers OK speeds on 5G with EE. This router wouldn’t connect to 5G with an EE SIM card and delivered a worse performance on 4G than our old unit.

I am loving this mobile wifi, half the price of my previous broadband, seven or eight times the speed, and I can place the router anywhere, it's not stuck in a cupboard by the front door, so the signal strength is so much better.. should have done it years ago.

I have been using this quite while set up is easy works and does the job 5G recommended product for any IT guy or back up Internet even for a big businesses

Superb router if you don't have good DSL broadband. I'm in the country with only 50% signal strength on 4G+, but I bought the NX210 as soon as my mast was upgraded to 5G. On an EE 5G contract, I am now getting 100% signal strength and 245Mbps, which is more than I've ever seen here. Very good user configuration via the user interface, or you can use the Tether app if you don't want to tweak. I like that the front lights face me so that I can see them easily. Neat, tidy design with three rear LAN ports. Works with TP-Link mesh units for extended wi-fi in a large house.

It took a while to get running but mostly because we have a complex house setup with 8 cameras, 3 TV's, 4 music streamers and IP TV on LAN and heating and alarm on wifi but onece up, OMG - if you haven't experienced 5g internet connection with IP6 wifi. you're in for a treat. Our change to EE 5g with this router and uprated wifi has resulted in a 6 fold increase in speeds!!

Attention, livré avec une prise UK, ne fonctionne pas en France

viene con enchufe que no se puede conectar en la España y no pone nada en descripción

Sehr guter und schneller Router. Es gibt nichts Negatives zu berichten. Mit Repeater von Fritz kombiniert ist jetzt top Internet in der ganzen Wohnung. Kein Vergleich mehr zum ollen DSL

Great router big improvement on my 4G router

Wurd mir von Amazon als neueres Modell des TP-Link 200 angeboten. Erstens exakt Baugleich mit 200er , zweitens hat UK Stecker, daher in EU unbrauchbar. Eigentlich UK Version des TP- Link 200.. Daher retourniert
