Our take on the TP-Link Archer BE3600 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router

The Archer BE3600 is TP-Link's entry-level Wi-Fi 7 router: dual-band, up to 3.6 Gbps total, with one 2.5 Gbps WAN port, one 2.5 Gbps LAN port and three gigabit LAN ports. It brings Wi-Fi 7 features like Multi-Link Operation, 4K-QAM and Multi-RUs, plus EasyMesh support for adding nodes. It suits people who want faster wired throughput and a cheap way onto Wi-Fi 7 rather than the biggest coverage. Against tri-band Wi-Fi 7 routers it gives up a 6 GHz band and top-end speed, so very dense homes and heavy multi-device users should look higher up the range.

About the TP-Link Archer BE3600 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router

The TP-Link Archer BE3600 is a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 router with a maximum speed of 3.6 Gbps. It supports Multi-Link Operation (MLO), 4K-QAM and Multi-RUs. It is compatible with all Wi-Fi devices and generations.

For wired connections, it has two 2.5 Gbps ports (one WAN and one LAN) and three 1 Gbps LAN ports. Four external antennas use Beamforming technology for wider coverage and stronger connections.

The router is EasyMesh-compatible, so it can work with other EasyMesh devices to form whole-home mesh Wi-Fi. The Tether app is used to manage the network. TP-Link HomeShield provides added security.

Questions and answers

Is the Archer BE3600 worth it over a Wi-Fi 6 router?
If you have multi-gig internet or a NAS, the 2.5 Gbps ports and Wi-Fi 7 features like MLO and 4K-QAM are a real step up. If your broadband is under 1 Gbps and your devices are Wi-Fi 6, a good Wi-Fi 6 router covers you for less.
Does it have a 6 GHz band?
No. It is dual-band, 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz only. Wi-Fi 7 features work on those bands, but you do not get the clean 6 GHz spectrum tri-band Wi-Fi 7 routers offer.
Can I use it as a mesh system?
Yes. It is EasyMesh-compatible, so you can add other EasyMesh routers or extenders to build a whole-home mesh. It also works as a node in an existing EasyMesh network.
How many wired devices can I connect?
One 2.5 Gbps WAN port for the modem, one 2.5 Gbps LAN port and three 1 Gbps LAN ports. That is four wired devices plus the uplink.
Do I need a subscription for HomeShield?
The basic HomeShield features are free. Advanced parental controls and security features require the paid HomeShield Pro plan.
Will my older Wi-Fi devices work with it?
Yes. It is backward compatible with Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 5 and older devices. They connect at their own maximum speeds, not Wi-Fi 7 speeds.
Where is the TP-Link Archer BE3600 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router cheapest?
At Altex Computers & Electronics, for $124.99, as of our latest check.
