Easy Firmware Upgrade:
– Tired of upgrading firmware manually? OTA updates simplify firmware upgrades with a click in the management panel. To keep your security and functions always up to date, just turn on the auto schedule.
Notes:
1/ 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.
2/ The maximum capacity is the maximum number of signals that can be connected under ideal conditions, and the specific situation varies with the location of the Router/RE, the type of connected equipment, etc.
3/ Smart Roaming is designed for devices that support the 802.11k/v standard.
4/ HomeShield includes the Free Basic Plan. Fees apply for the Pro Plan. Visit tp-link.com/homeshield for more information.
5/ TP-Link Archer Air E5 does not support the related features.
6/ Make sure your router (R5) is in Router mode. When the router is in AP mode, the extenders cannot join in the network automatically through EasyMesh. You need to set up the network manually via WPS or switch it to Wireless Router mode before continuing.
7/ TP-Link EasyMesh-compatible products can network with other devices that use EasyMesh. Failed connections may be due to firmware conflicts of different vendors. The EasyMesh-Compatible function is still being developed on some models and will be supported in subsequent software updates.
8/ 8mm refers to the thickness of the majority of the device. Some portions may exceed this size out of necessity.
9/ When the router/range extender is working, the metal surface temperature is high. Do not stick or directly mount the router/range extender to wallpaper, paper, wood, glass, non-heat-resistant paint, foam board, flammable and explosive materials, etc, to avoid burns, discoloration, breakage or other accidental injury.
10/ Archer Air units should be used with the provided Type-C power adapter. Do not use any other chargers than those recommended. Do not use the included power adapter to charge other devices.
11/ Pictures are for reference only. If there are any inconsistencies between the product image and the actual product, the actual product shall prevail.
12/ 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.
13/ Google and Google Home are trademarks of Google LLC.
14/ Compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant. User experience is dependent on the connected device’s specifications.
15/ Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant are not available in all languages and countries.
