AC1900 Full Gigabit WiFi Router

Broader Coverage throughout Your Home

Access your entertainment from every corner of your home with 6 external high-performance antennas. Beamforming technology detects devices and concentrates wireless signal strength towards them, even if they are far away or low-powered.

Incredible 802.11ac Wave2 Home Wi-Fi

Archer C86 delivers high-performance and affordable home Wi-Fi with total speeds up to 1900 Mbps. Handle simple tasks like sending e-mails or web browsing on the 2.4 GHz band and bandwidth-intensive tasks like online gaming or 4K/8K UHD streaming on the 5 GHz band—all lag-free.

Maximum Wi-Fi Performance with Three Streams

With 3×3 MIMO, Archer C86 is capable of transmitting and receiving data on three streams. 3×3 capable computers— like Macs—pair perfectly with A8 to perform at max with much higher efficiency than 2×2 MIMO routers.

Flexibly Create Whole Home Mesh WiFi

Archer C86 is EasyMesh-compatible. If you have any dead zones at home, just add another EasyMesh router/range extender or any TP-Link device that supports OneMesh to further form your whole home multi-gigabit mesh WiFi. No more searching for a stable connection.

Advanced Security with WPA3

The latest Wi-Fi security protocol, WPA3, brings new capabilities to improve cybersecurity in personal networks. More secure encryption in Wi-Fi password safety and enhanced protection against brute-force attacks combine to safeguard your home Wi-Fi.

Increased Efficiency in Wi-Fi Distribution

Smart Connect helps your router automatically switch each device's connection to the best available Wi-Fi band while Airtime Fairness prevents older devices from slowing down your network. With both, everyone can enjoy a smoother, lag-free W-Fi experience.
