AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 Router

The TP-Link Archer AX23 is a dual-band wireless router that delivers combined wireless data rates up to 1.8 Gbps using the Wi-Fi 6 standard. It provides one gigabit WAN port and four gigabit LAN ports for wired connections. Four fixed high-performance antennas support beamforming to extend coverage across the home.

Home Users Needing Basic Wi-Fi 6

This router suits households that want faster 4K streaming and lower lag when multiple devices are connected through OFDMA technology. Buyers who require multi-gigabit WAN or LAN ports for internet plans above 1 Gbps should consider other hardware. Those needing tri-band operation or mesh nodes beyond OneMesh compatibility will also need a different solution.

1.8 Gbps Combined Wireless Throughput

The AX1800 rating represents the maximum aggregate speed across the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Real-world throughput depends on client capabilities, channel width, and environmental interference. Matching this figure to the broadband plan and device mix determines whether the router meets performance expectations.

Questions about this item

Does the 10/100/1000M WAN port cap my internet speed at 1 Gbps?

Yes, the single Gigabit WAN port limits the maximum wired internet throughput to 1 Gbps even though the Wi-Fi 6 radio can reach 1.8 Gbps aggregate.

How much space do the four fixed antennas need on a desk or shelf?

The chassis measures 10.20 x 5.30 x 1.50 inches; the non-removable antennas extend upward, so allow extra vertical clearance above the 1.50-inch body height.

What is the correct order to connect the modem and power during first-time setup?

Connect the modem to the WAN port first, then apply the 12 V 1 A power adapter; the Tether app will guide the remaining configuration steps.
