TP-Link HX520, Dual-band (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz), Wi-Fi 6 3000 Mbit/s Mesh Router

The HX520 brings Wi-Fi 6 power to every room. With a combined speed of up to 3000 Mbit/s, you can enjoy 8K video, fast downloads, and lag-free gaming even when phones, tablets, smart speakers, and security cameras are all online. Dual-band operation (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) lets you separate high-throughput tasks from everyday browsing.

Beamforming and four internal high-performance antennas focus the signal toward each device, while EasyMesh technology lets you expand coverage by simply adding another HX520 unit. The optional Ethernet backhaul links nodes for even faster, more reliable throughput, creating a truly seamless whole-home network.

The sleek white chassis blends into any décor, and the unit features a reset button, LED status lights and a DC-in jack for flexible power options. Three Gigabit LAN ports let you plug in wired devices, while the WAN port connects directly to your ISP modem.

Benefits

With the TP-Link HX520 you get consistent coverage, stronger security, and easy management. WPA3-Personal protects your data, parental controls let you set limits for kids, and QoS prioritizes gaming or video calls, so the experience stays smooth no matter what’s happening on the network.

The built-in 1.3 GHz dual-core processor handles multiple streams without lag, and the LED indicators give you quick visual feedback on connection status, making troubleshooting a breeze.
