TP-Link Archer AX72 Pro is a wireless router that supports the Wi-Fi 6 standard. It can transmit wireless networks in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, utilizing the IEEE 802.11 b/g/n/ax protocols in 2.4 GHz and IEEE 802.11 a/n/ac/ax in 5 GHz. The maximum theoretical throughput is 574 Mb/s in 2.4 GHz and 4804 Mb/s in 5 GHz. The router features 1 2.5G Ethernet port, which can function as either WAN or LAN, and 4 gigabit Ethernet ports, including 1 WAN or LAN and 3 LAN. The use of the 2.5G Ethernet port allows for the connection of an external high-throughput network (up to 2.5 Gb/s) or the connection of demanding devices within the home network, such as a NAS server. The utilization of 4x4 MIMO in the 5 GHz band distinguishes Archer AX72 Pro, providing higher speeds than standard Wi-Fi 6 routers. This router is suitable for demanding users who prioritize high throughput and stability.

1x 2.5G Ethernet port, 4x gigabit Ethernet ports

The router is equipped with a 2.5G Ethernet port (2.5 Gb/s), which can serve as either WAN or LAN. Depending on your needs, you can use it to connect the signal from your service provider or a device within the local network that requires high throughput (e.g., a NAS server). In addition, Archer AX72 Pro has 4 gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mb/s), including 3 LAN ports and 1 WAN/LAN.

Wi-F 6 AX5400 transmission

Archer AX72 Pro allows for wireless network transmission in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands simultaneously, in accordance with the Wi-Fi 6 standard. It supports IEEE 802.11 b/g/n/ax in the 2.4 GHz band and IEEE 802.11 a/n/ac/ax in the 5 GHz band. The maximum theoretical throughput is 574 Mb/s in 2.4 GHz and 4804 Mb/s in 5 GHz. Achieving such high speeds is possible due to the use of 4x4 MIMO (4T4R) in the 5 GHz band, providing double the performance compared to a standard Wi-Fi 6 router. The offered throughput is sufficient even for the most demanding applications. It is ideal if you need high local network speed, watch content in 8K resolution, or transfer very large files.

Large transmission range

The offered product features 6 external omnidirectional antennas integrated into the housing. They provide good signal coverage, even in challenging locations. The manufacturer has incorporated a high-power amplifier to improve obstacle penetration and increase range. An additional advantage is the Beamforming function, shaping the beam. If a user is at the edge of the coverage area, the beam is shaped to deliver the best possible signal to them.

USB 3.0 port

On the side of the housing, there is a USB 3.0 port, which is perfect if you want to create a file server. The device supports FTP server, media server, and Samba server. It also supports the Apple Time Machine application.

USB 3.0 provides higher throughput compared to USB 2.0, which is often used in routers. This is crucial if you are using an external hard drive, as it results in faster data read and write speeds.

Multiple users simultaneously

Archer AX72 Pro is well-suited for networks with many wireless clients. The OFDMA protocol allows multiple users to use a single stream simultaneously, increasing the overall network efficiency. MU-MIMO technology enables simultaneous data transmission and reception from multiple clients, preventing queuing and positively impacting throughput and latency.

Archer AX72 Pro is designed to provide stable network performance, even in homes with a high number of connected devices. With the ability to handle numerous devices simultaneously, including computers, gaming consoles, smartphones, smart TVs, and other smart devices, it ensures a reliable and efficient wireless network for various applications.

VPN server and client

Archer AX72 Pro allows you to create a VPN server using the OpenVPN, PPTP, or L2TP standards. This encrypted connection provides a secure way to access the local network from external locations. The router can also function as a VPN client, enabling you to connect remotely to another network.

Home Network Scanner

Router Archer AX72 Pro continuous scans the home network for potential attacks and security issues. Early detection of vulnerabilities helps protect the network from potential threats.

Parental control

The parental control feature allows you to create user profiles and control their access to the network. You can also filter inappropriate content, block websites, and view online time statistics.

QoS

With the QoS (Quality of Service) feature, you can assign transmission priority to devices, ensuring that their connection is given the highest importance. For example, if you're working, you can prioritize your computer to ensure consistent bandwidth, regardless of what other users are doing on the network.

TP-Link OneMesh

The offered product is compatible with the TP-Link OneMesh standard. When used with other devices that support this standard, it can create a unified wireless network. In some locations, using more than one router/access point is necessary to cover the entire space. Within the OneMesh network, devices communicate wirelessly with each other, eliminating the need for additional Ethernet cables. As a user moves between devices, they are automatically switched without signal drops. The network appears under a single name, and the software decides which transmission you are currently connected to, making internet usage more streamlined.

Simple configuration with application

The Tether app is available for mobile devices running Android or iOS. With it, you can easily set up your network and then have access to management. Below are some of the supported features.

Parental control

From the application, you have quick access to parental control settings. You can change settings in real-time and check online time statistics.

New connection notification

You can receive notifications about new network connections and, if needed, easily block them with just one click.

Fast update

You can update the software from the management panel or the app with just a few clicks, or you can opt for automatic updates if available.
