Upgrade to true next-gen performance with this Wi-Fi 7 mesh-ready router, perfect for South African homes moving to multi-gig fibre. With tri-band 12-stream Wi-Fi (up to 19 Gbps total) and a clean 6 GHz band, you'll enjoy faster downloads, smoother 4K/8K streaming, and responsive cloud gaming across more devices at once. Two 10 Gbps WAN/LAN ports (including an RJ45/SFP+ combo) plus 2× 2.5 Gbps ports make it a natural fit for premium fibre packages, NAS, and multi-gig desktop setups.
Built on Wi-Fi 7, Multi-Link Operation (MLO) can transmit across different bands in parallel to boost throughput and cut latency, while 320 MHz channels unlock wider lanes for high-speed, reliable connections. The router supports wireless and wired combined backhaul with compatible units, so you can expand into a powerful mesh when you're ready. With TP-Link HomeShield, you also get network protection, robust parental controls, and real-time IoT security, ideal for smart homes. It's universally compatible with older Wi-Fi standards and works with any ISP and modem. Stay fast today and future-ready for tomorrow's speeds, without changing your whole setup.
