I found you from searching for a Deco X20 vs X60 comparison and watched your X60 vs X90 video. Great review again! You got yourself another subscriber. I purchased this a few months ago when I was testing out multiple standalone routers. I ran tests with my laptop and multiple desktops in scenarios utilizing LAG, Wi-Fi range, stability and speeds as well as with and without my VPN connected. When connecting to any VPN server and using different protocols, the upload speeds were horrendous with this router. 300Mbps download/upload dropped to ~280Mbps download/~16Mbps upload. I returned it immediately but this was my experience. Keep up the amazing content.
that's interesting, I got pretty good speeds with this. Thanks for watching my other videos as well!
This is by far the best review channel I've come across! Subscribed! TL
Thanks!
I agree, no fluff, no rambling on and on, no wandering off topic. None of this crap of baiting and switching. ALL BUSINESS, I love it
best review that was exactly what I was looking for to make a decision
Thanks!
Great Video Mr. Landpet. I Learnt 🧠💡heaps!
Glad to hear it!
Thanks for the review
No problem 👍
Thanks. Great video. Love my router, but since I got my new iPad Pro 2022 I am noticing a drop in speed. (I have heard that it is not as good.). Thinking about the new Wifi 6e whatever routers now. Unless they do an update that fixes it. But yes, I am glad I saw your video because I switched up from 500 to 1000 and indeed, definitely I only get around 500 for router still. Time to upgrade maybe (though that is already plenty fast.). Agree with range. GREAT range for me, and no drops at all. Thanks again.
No problem! I have almost gigabit Internet speeds and with most of the mesh systems when I do an internet speed test on the device themselves, they typically range from the 500 to 800Mbps range with the most common being around 650ish. Lots of things matter, not just the router. You can start looking if the device itself is a 2x2 MIMO vs a 4x4 MIMO, can the router handle 4x4 MIMO, how far is it from the router, are there walls, are there other devices using the internet at the same time?
Not everyone does a local speedtest, and I think that’s pretty important for these routers that support more than gigabit wifi speeds. Thanks!
Yup, I agree! Thanks for watching!
Great review, thank you! If I understand correctly, local network test test only the AP and switch capabilities since the unit does no internet routing. Both of these things have dedicated hardware accelerators and the CPU is largely untaxed. The big jump in speeds might indicate that the router's CPU is the bottleneck when it comes to 1gig Internet connections. Still a fantastic machine for anything below that.
Thanks! I do local tests mostly to not rely on my ISP or public speed test server.
Best review!
One queston - better to setup two deco x20 or this router + RE505X. Cannot find any compare for those two setups.
It seems that both are mesh capable.
Thanks! I prefer mesh systems if you need more than one. X20 is great for wired backhaul and ok for wireless backhaul. XE75 is better for wireless backhaul and not too much more than the X20
Hi Landpet! Great Review! On previous TP-Link Ax routers like the AX6000 there were QOS issues, specifically the inability disable QOS settings. Do you know if this issue is still an issue on the AX73 as well? Thanks!
Thanks! I didn't get any QOS issues while I had it running, no issues whatsoever on this. I didn't try to disable it though, just ran it on its default mode. That's part of my testing is to see if I do need to go and switch settings for it to work, with this, it was just a matter of setup your wifi, guest network and it worked. I played with a few options but QoS was not part of that list.
How would you compare it to TP-Link AX6000 in speed and range? Thanks.
i have a question lately my router is not giving me good speed for online games and i always end up disconnecting so i wanted to ask what is the best and most affordable router for home use. I'd appreciate some feed back thank you
Was indecision for this router. Seem very nice but at $165 online pricing didn't think speed boost would be worth cost increase over AX55 at $110. Was able to get 700mbps for the speedtest and thinking maybe not get much more if go up to the AX73 at 30% more cost. Very pleased to replace 8yr old tplink router that was ancient but definitely got money worth from it. Regular size house here and no issues with AX55. So easy to setup only took couple minutes. Some say AX3000 runs hot but been checking it and so far not issues.
I'm testing the AX55 now actually and so far so good. It doesn't get hot. It's definitely a good choice considering the price.
@@landpet Very good to hear, looking forward review. For me its difficult to find reviews. Not really know what difference is between AX50, AX55 or AX73 except maybe chipset? Its not something I would upgrade often so was just hoping for good value. 700mbps seem as fast as tmobile stove pipe performs here and maybe I reach potential with these routers so very pleased.
@@happytrails1963 It's really mostly the speed rating, depending how fast your internet is the faster speed rating routers like the AX73 can go a bit faster but I don't think there's going to be enough of a difference to warrant an upgrade. It all just depends on the user, if you're happy with your speeds, then you're good.
I just bought their Deco X68, hopefully I'll be happy with it!!
You should be. I've read some good reviews.
I like it
Başarılı ürün 👌
Good review. One question, I'll be connecting a HDD to the router's USB port via Samba. Is it working flawlessly in this setting?
Thanks! I don’t know, I haven’t tried that. In theory, it should work but best to ask TP Link
@@landpet Alright, will try asking the other reviewers as well. Thank you.
can the aerials unscrew?
Hey, I just bought this device and it says on the back the model is Archer AX73(EU) Ver:1.0. Do you know if there is a newer version of this router? I would not want to miss out on some functionality due to ordering an older version of the device in case a newer one has been released.
Not a direct replacement that I'm aware of. There is a faster version of it that's really one level higher. Archer AX90
Hi thanks for á great review, how is the range on this device, would it cover detached house on two floors
No problem. Best to get a mesh system for that, check out my deco mesh review video. I compare a lot of deco systems to each other.

Thanks for your response and advice, greatly appreciated ✌️
Now easymesh is out can do some review on easymesh vs deco system?
In AP mode it does not cut any bandwidth from my 1Gbps up/down ISP link, I'm getting ~940mbps up/down on both cable connection and wifi 6 (Lenovo P53 laptop). The wired router I'm using is MikroTik RB750GR3 for 70EUR and this is the cheapest setup I've found so far to handle 1Gbps ISP connection over wifi 6 (RB750GR3 + AX73 in AP mode)
Thanks for that info
Thank you this is useful to know, using it for my pfsense setup as an AP
Does it have option under qos settings to limit bandwidth for individual connected devices?
Yup
wisp feature?
I can't decide between ASUS TUF-AX5400 vs Tp-Link Archer AX73. The specification is very similar, but I'm interested in stability and WIFI coverage. Maybe someone can share the experience.
I haven't played with the ASUS but I will say this one is pretty good.
Go with asus tuf-ax5400
Güzel ürün
Hey, I was just wondering... does no one review "Ethernet" speed anymore? Or am I missing something? I prefer connecting an ethernet cable to my router for low latency, but cannot find the max speed using the ethernet port.
Almost all the routers and mesh WiFi’s I test give me full speeds, really no point in announcing those numbers anymore. Most of these support at least gigabit speeds and they deliver. Some are faster but generally speaking it can reach those speeds within the network and up to those speeds based on your ISP speeds. I am referring to Ethernet
Thanks
No problem
Which app do you use to measure Wi-Fi speeds?
I used SpeedTest app for the internet tests and OpenSpeedTest Server for the local speed tests. I run the OpenSpeedTest server app on my PC and go to an IP address on the browser on the phone and run the speed test from there. This is what it looks like: czcams.com/video/cqcJ6oP6Ky0/video.html
@@landpet awesome. Just what I wanted to know myself. Have a good day, sir.
This seems nice
But should we get WiFi 6E ❓️
For future proof, yes
@@landpet
Thanks
A buyer supports that parental controls cost 5-6 euros/month (Greece, 2022). Is that true ?
If you want the advanced features, there is a subscription
Which router is better tp link ax 73 or new ax 72pro?
I haven't played with the ax72 pro but that does seem to have an advantage with an up to 2.5Gbps port for Internet connections.
Morning,i have a technical question and maybe you can help, a router (ac 3150 tplink) is in accespoint with kabel en the internet light stays on red but there is lan internet en wifi works .The router cant be reached with the app anymore also.
Any idea ?? Thx
Try restarting it, if you’re on the same network, you should be able to access it unless it’s broken
ok thx @@landpet
Here in Belgium we pay a lot of money just to have a measly 400 / 40 Mbps Internet connection. And they call it fast Internet!
Those were my speeds (slower upload) for a while until I moved to a fiber location.
Should I switch on ofdma on my tp link ax5400
It’s usually a good thing to enable that
Is this one better than ASUS ax65u?
I haven’t tested the ax65u but this one is good for sure
Hello there I’m using a huawei cpe pro 2 and the wifi range is trash is it worth it to get ax73 over it ?
This is a good router but it depends how big your place is, may even be better to get a mesh like the Deco XE75
@@landpet I see
Thank you so much
Is this wall mountable?
yes 2 screw holes
I got this one now but I cannot find the QoS settings.
I would think it would be in the settings, I'm currently running another router otherwise I would check in the app.
👍👍
You didn't mentioned the paid subscription for more options
Somethings I forget and sometimes I just omit things to keep the video shorter. This was a case of I forgot :)
Can i use my google dots with this?
Not designed for that. I forget if google can run in access point mode but it's something I would avoid.
i dont know how you guys do this. wifi is always orange for me. it youst wont connect to wifi
You can't use another router with onemesh. Has to be an extender.
Yup, that is correct. I forgot to update this or pin a comment

Good

200 USD? No way, just buy a Grandstream wifi 6 or Unifi access point. Cheaper a much better WIFI.
I haven't played with those routers. How's the speed and range on those?
@@landpet They are access points, spite the Grandstream has some routers functions as well and the controller integrated. I have the Unifi wifi6 light ( 100 USD ) that have speeds from 450 to 550 MBs, but the best is the user can create several Networks to isolate devices.
Expensive, I paid £99
