TP-Link Archer NX200 5G AX1800 Wireless Dual-Band Gigabit Router

TP-Link 5G AX1800 Wireless Dual-Band Gigabit Router (Archer NX200) - 3 Years Local Warranty

The Archer NX200 is a standalone 5G router: put a micro SIM in it and it delivers AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 — 1201 Mbps on 5 GHz and 574 Mbps on 2.4 GHz — with three Gigabit Ethernet ports and WAN failover, in an upright 190 mm tower. It suits a Singapore home, shop or site office where fibre is not available, not yet installed, or needs a backup path.

5G NR and 4G LTE in One Box

The NX200 has a built-in cellular modem and a micro SIM card slot, so no separate dongle or mobile hotspot is needed. TP-Link publishes support for 5G bands N1, N3, N5, N7, N8, N20, N28, N38, N40, N41, N77 and N78, FDD-LTE bands B1, B3, B5, B7, B8, B20, B28 and B32, TDD-LTE bands B38, B40, B41, B42 and B43, and DC-HSDPA, HSPA+, HSPA and UMTS on B1, B5 and B8. TP-Link's headline figure for this model is 5G "download speeds up to 4.67 Gbps" — a peak modem rate, not a guaranteed one. That covers the bands Singapore operators use, though you should confirm your plan's data allowance and any hotspot restrictions with your telco.

AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 on Both Bands

Wireless is rated 1201 Mbps at 5 GHz and 574 Mbps at 2.4 GHz using 802.11ax, so the Wi-Fi side is a full AX1800 router rather than an afterthought bolted onto a modem. Wireless functions published include enable/disable radio, wireless scheduling, WMM and wireless statistics, with a guest network on each band.

Three Gigabit Ports and WAN Failover

The wired side is one 10/100/1000 Mbps LAN/WAN combo port plus two 10/100/1000 Mbps LAN ports — three ports in total. The combo port lets the NX200 take a wired internet feed and keep the cellular connection as a backup, and TP-Link publishes WAN Failover explicitly, which is the feature that makes this router useful as a resilience device beside an existing fibre line rather than only as a replacement for one.

Antennas and Form Factor

TP-Link publishes eight 5G/LTE antennas and, separately, two external 5G/4G antenna ports for fitting higher-gain antennas where signal is weak — worth knowing if the unit will sit in a basement or an interior room. The chassis is an upright 99 × 99 × 190 mm tower, so it stands rather than lies flat. Buttons are WPS, reset and power on/off. Power is a 12 V DC, 1.5 A adapter from a 100–240 V input.

Security, VPN and Management

Security covers DoS protection, an IPv4 SPI firewall, an IPv6 firewall, IP and MAC address binding, access control, and IP and domain filtering. VPN support is PPTP, IPSec and OpenVPN. QoS prioritises traffic by device or application, and management is through TP-Link Cloud, local management or remote management, with DDNS through TP-Link, DynDns or NO-IP. TP-Link's published wireless security for this model is 64/128-bit WEP, WPA/WPA2 and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK; WPA3 is not listed, and no claim is made for it here. No mesh capability is claimed for this model.

Ideal For

Singapore homes, shops, showrooms, site offices and event setups that need internet without a fibre line, and businesses wanting a 5G failover path beside an existing connection. Supplied by SourceIT with local Singapore warranty and GST invoice.
