THE Travel Router
I recently picked up the TP-Link BE3600 Travel Router and I couldn’t be happier with it—definitely a 5-star product! It’s been amazing to have a secure connection everywhere I travel, giving me peace of mind whether I’m in a hotel, Airbnb, or airport lounge. The setup is super simple, and managing it through the Tether app makes everything a breeze.One of my favorite features is having a network-side VPN when traveling. It’s great not having to configure each device individually, since everything connected to the router is automatically protected. Plus, I love that my family and I can connect all our devices without having to log each one into hotel Wi-Fi separately—our network stays the same wherever we go.If you’re looking for a reliable, secure, and easy-to-manage travel router, the TP-Link BE3600 is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended!

Nice
Very awesome router fast not bad to setup and works well

Good speeds.
Seems to work well. I bought this to replace an older “n” travel router I had and I wanted to modernize to newer wifi standards. Haven’t used it in a hotel yet but I connected it to my home wifi and then connected my laptop to this unit’s wifi. My home internet is gigabit and I can typically get about 800 mbps with the wifi (home router is also a newer wifi 7 router). Through this, I got about 500 mbps, so not as fast but still very reasonable and much faster than my old “n” travel router. I am disappointed that it’s not tri-band though.

Best router for a good price!?
Bought this to replace my nighthawk. The app and setup is easy, connects all my devices well. Great quality all around, I’m definitely a huge fan of this router and its speeds.

Good Value for Wifi7 (sortof)
Wifi 7 sortof… not a 3 band but 2 band router. It is very fast compared to the AX1800 I replaced. My last 3 setups have been TP Link products and always have had good value/performance with them. The only disappointment is to use the upgraded security features requires a subscription now. I won’t be doing that as I am using basic router security and always on a VPN whether home or away. This is a very good value if you want to insure being up to standard protocol for some time to come. My home is a ranch 1800′ and the reach upstairs and downstairs is strong. The router has performed flawlessly since being installed.

Simple, affordable, fast and probably the best solution for 85% of people out there/ non-enthusiasts
TLDR: I think Tom’s Hardware Guide said it best “Bringing Wi-Fi 7 to the masses… The TP-Link Archer BE3600 is cheap, but you also don’t get the full spec of features or performance of “true” Wi-Fi 7 routers”. If you’re not big into gaming and just want a no-frills router to support your 1 Gbps or lower internet connection, there’s nothing wrong with the Archer BE3600. I personally, am very happy with my purchase and it’s probably the best solution for 85% of people out there/ non-enthusiasts. NOTE: I paid $83 for this Wifi router using an Amazon coupon. Which I think is a very fair price for something I only plan to upgrade every 5-7 years, and only if I have to. I also live in a townhouse, so it’s not like the signal has to go 60+ft.Details:Upgrading from a TPLINK AC1750 (Archer A7) [release ~2018], using Comcast internet (Fast plan; up to 600 mbps down) and a Netgear AC1200 WiFi USB Adapter 802.11ac Dual Band, USB 3.0 (on my computer but in a USB 2.0 port) which was about 7 feet away from the wireless router and I saw a measurable increase in my download speeds (~45% from ~260mbps to ~380 mbps using Ookla speed test).Purportedly the TP-Link BE3600 which was released in the 2024/2025 timeframe uses the same frequency bands (5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands) as the older TPLINK AC1750 (Archer A7), but uses the newer and faster WIFI 7 (802.11be) vs the older WIFI 5 (802.11ac) protocols. The TP-Link BE3600 advertises up to 3.57 Gbps (aka 3570 Mbps; 2882 Mbps in 5 GHz band + 688 Mbps in 2.4 GHz band) whereas the Archer A7 only 1.75 Gbps (1300 Mbps in 5GHz + 450 Mbps in 2.4 GHz bands).Practically speaking the internet says anything above 100 Mbps should be able to run multiple devices pretty well streaming. But I’m upgrading anyway, because my mother needs a new router so she doesn’t have to pay $10/mo for one from the cable company.I have no complaints. Easy to setup and connect to. I realize I’m now probably being gated by my older Netgear AC1200 WiFi USB Adapter which is using a USB 2.0 port (max speed 480 mbps) but my speeds are enough for me; my newer gaming PC which sits about 10 ft away from the router and uses a built-in WIFI card (Wi-Fi 6E 802.11ax) manages ~500 mbps down.CAVEAT: I do want to note my older Netis WF2120 Wireless N150 Nano USB Dongle 802.11 b/g/n (aka WIFI 1/3/4) on an older computer was not able to see the 2.4 GHz signal from the BE3600 whereas it could from the AC1750; so I replaced it. I ended up using a spare Wavlink 600M dual-band connectivity (2.4GHz and 5GHz) USB WiFi adapter which uses 802.11ac WIFI 5; and had to update the drivers on my older windows PC in the process (to recognize the Wavlink adapter).

Solid Wifi7 router at a very reasonable price
I had to buy a router because our current router was not performing well anymore. This one was Wifi7 yet was priced very reasonably. We needed it for a small apartment and we did not need a ton of functionality. The router was packaged very well and set-up was straightforward. I am pleased with this purchase. Highly recommended.

I switched over to a new router as my old one was overheating and not reaching my full speed through the ISP. this router allows everyone in the house to connect their devices and it doesn’t slow down at all. A good buy.

j`utilise ce routeur pour utilisation domestique présentement il fait bien le travail j`ai 2 tv box iptv et 1PC qui fonctionne simultanément et il me fourni le 5G sur les 3 appareils avec une connexion 100Msbs en réseau et environ 110 Msbs en Wifi plus la téléphonie IP pour 70$ il fait bien le travail ça fait seulement 30 jours que je l`ai reçu et il va bien j`ai fait 1 redémarrage depuis 30 jours pour un léger bug mon FAI fourni les même routeurs et semble dire que c`est un bon routeur il est facile à configuré sur un PC car ont peut lui émettre plus de fonctions avec une belle interface bien détaillé. Avec l`APP. il y a moins de possibilité pour la configuration avec sa fonction MU-MIMO il choisi selon la distance ( fonction intelligente) si il donne du 5G ou du 2.4G mais il y a une possibilité de lui accrédité la fréquence que l`ont veut en ce servant de la fonction invité si l`on veut absolument une fréquence pour un appareil en particulier. Pour le moment il va bien j`ai hâte de voir la durabilité de ce routeur. Pour ce qui est des antennes il mesure environ 10 PO pour une meilleur réception pour le moment TP-LINK est mon préféré.
