不幸的是，老设备总是无法“看到” Wi-Fi 6网络的问题。所有支持此标准的路由器都是这种情况，关键是更新计算机内网卡的驱动程序。如果这也不起作用，您始终可以将TP-Link Archer AX10 ( AX1500 ) 路由器设置为使用 Wi-Fi 5 标准而不是Wi-Fi 6。
如果您使用 Wi-Fi 5 和 Wi-Fi 6 标准，此路由器提供的无线网络速度很快。但是，在 2.4 GHz频段上使用 Wi-Fi 4 标准时，平均速度有点令人失望。在我们的测试中，其他具有类似硬件的路由器速度更快。
为了检查TP-Link Archer AX10的(TP-Link Archer AX10)Wi-Fi广播质量，我们带着笔记本电脑搬到了一个与路由器一墙之隔的房间。我们使用专门的应用程序对其进行了无线传输，该应用程序可以测量平均速度和网络传输可变性。使用Wi-Fi 4 时无线传输的可变性是合理的，但平均速度并不高。
TP-Link Archer AX10 - 在Wi-Fi 4上传输(Wi-Fi 4)
在5GHz(GHz)频段切换到Wi-Fi 5时，平均速度要好很多，网络传输也比较稳定。在我们看来，体验要好得多。
TP-Link Archer AX10 - 在Wi-Fi 5上传输(Wi-Fi 5)
在使用Wi-Fi 6(Wi-Fi 6)的 5 GHz频段上，平均速度略有增加，但变异性高于使用 Wi-Fi 5 标准时。我们认为这方面应该会在未来的固件更新中得到改进，以便用户可以从Wi-Fi 6(Wi-Fi 6)上更稳定、更快的传输中受益。
TP-Link Archer AX10 - 在Wi-Fi 6上传输(Wi-Fi 6)
使用TP-Link Archer AX10(TP-Link Archer AX10)路由器和更新的 Wi-Fi 5 和 Wi-Fi 6 标准，您可以获得良好的体验。网络(Network)连接速度很快，路由器可以处理许多设备，您甚至可以通过智能手机对其进行控制。但是，使用 Wi-Fi 4 标准时的平均速度有点令人失望。

Hardware specifications and design
TP-Link Archer AX10 or TP-LINK Archer AX1500 is one of the most affordable routers with Wi-Fi 6, yet that doesn’t come at the cost of low-end hardware. On the contrary, this model features a surprisingly powerful Broadcom BCM6750 triple-core system-on-a-chip (SoC), running at 1.5 GHz, 256 MB of RAM, and 16 MB of storage space for the firmware of the router. TP-Link Archer AX10 is a thin router, made of plastic materials, with a rather classic look, typical for most devices of its type. Its size is 10.2 × 5.3 ×1.5 inches or 260.2 × 135.0 × 38.6 mm in width, depth, and height. It is also very light, weighing about 1.7 pounds or 800 grams.
The antennas on the TP-Link Archer AX10
On the front, you see several LEDs that signal the operational status of the router. If you find them distracting, you can turn them off from the firmware. There are also four non-detachable external antennas that can be rotated any way you wish. The top cover features the TP-Link logo and the letter X made of shiny black plastic that reflects the light, and it is also a dust and fingerprint magnet.
The LEDs on the front of the TP-Link Archer AX10
On the bottom of the device, you find a sticker with the serial number of the router you bought and the default name and password for its Wi-Fi. There are also holes for mounting it on walls, a small feature that might make a difference for some users.

On the back, you find four Ethernet ports at 1 Gbps, the WAN port (also at 1 Gbps), the Power button, the Power jack, the Reset jack, a button for turning the Wi-Fi on and off, and the WPS feature.
The ports on the back of the TP-Link Archer AX10
TP-Link Archer AX10 is a dual-band wireless router with a total theoretical maximum bandwidth split as follows: 1201 Mbps for the 5 GHz band (or frequency) and 300 Mbps for the 2.4 GHz band. It works with all the modern wireless standards, including Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n), Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), and Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and it has support for WPA3 wireless encryption. Also, wireless transfers are made using 2x2 MU-MIMO.

Setting up and using the TP-Link Archer AX10 (AX1500) router
You can set up the router using a web browser on your computer or the Tether for Android and iOS. We chose the browser route, and it starts with you setting up the administrator password. Then, you select your time-zone and the type of internet connection you are using, enter the necessary connection details (if applicable), and personalize your basic wireless settings.
TP-Link Archer AX10 - the quick setup wizard
Then, the router tests whether your internet connection works and if it can use it. If all is good, it recommends you to upgrade the firmware to the latest version. You should do that to access advanced features like WPA3 encryption (it isn’t available in the first release of firmware) and improved Wi-Fi performance and stability.
TP-Link Archer AX10 - upgrading the firmware
Once the firmware upgrade is complete, you see a summary of your settings, and you can log into the router and change its advanced settings. One cool aspect is that you can connect it with a TP-Link ID and remote control your router from anywhere on the internet, both from a web browser and using the mobile Tether app.
The firmware of the TP-Link Archer AX10 looks friendly and straightforward. At first, it presents only the basic settings that anyone can understand, even if they are unfamiliar with networking devices and concepts.
The firmware on the TP-Link Archer AX10
If you want more, you click or tap on Advanced, and then you get a list with all the settings available for your router and all its features. This part is not that complex either, so most people should have no problems setting things up. However, there’s no help documentation available in the firmware, which may be a downside for some users. Luckily, the user interface is available in more than 20 languages, making everyone’s life easier.
TP-Link Archer AX10 - advanced settings
The Tether mobile app for Android and iOS is simple and easy to use. It offers access to the basics you need, including some remote troubleshooting tools that might come in handy when your family has problems with the router, and you are not home to help them.
The Tether mobile app for TP-Link Archer AX10
Unfortunately, there’s always the problem with older devices not being able to “see” Wi-Fi 6 networks. This is the case with all routers with support for this standard, and the key is to update the drivers for the network cards inside your computers. If that doesn’t work either, you can always set the TP-Link Archer AX10 (AX1500) router to use the Wi-Fi 5 standard instead of Wi-Fi 6.
The wireless network offered by this router is fast if you are using the Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 standards. However, when using the Wi-Fi 4 standard on the 2.4 GHz band, the average speed was a bit underwhelming. Other routers with similar hardware were faster in our testing.
To check the quality of the Wi-Fi broadcast by TP-Link Archer AX10, we took our laptop and moved to a room that is separated by one wall from the router. We made a wireless transfer on it, using a specialized app that measures the average speed and the network transfer variability. The variability of wireless transfers when using Wi-Fi 4 was reasonable, but the average speed wasn’t high.
TP-Link Archer AX10 - Transfer on Wi-Fi 4
When switching to Wi-Fi 5 on the 5 GHz band, the average speed was a lot better, and the network transfers were relatively steady. A much better experience in our view.
TP-Link Archer AX10 - Transfer on Wi-Fi 5
On the 5 GHz band with Wi-Fi 6, the average speed increased slightly, but the variability was higher than when using the Wi-Fi 5 standard. We believe that this aspect should be improved in future firmware updates so that users can benefit from stabler and even faster transfers on Wi-Fi 6.
TP-Link Archer AX10 - Transfer on Wi-Fi 6
You get a good experience using the TP-Link Archer AX10 router and the newer Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 standards. Network connections are fast, the router can handle many devices, and you can control it even from your smartphone. However, the average speed when using the Wi-Fi 4 standard is a bit underwhelming.
