Thank you. The AC4000 version of this very router is the A20 that I am currently using and am not crazy about.
To be clear: You're saying that OpenWRT does work on the Archer A20? It's not on the list at https://openwrt.org/toh/start https://openwrt.org/toh/start. It would be exciting if I can throw OpenWRT on this router!
Also, if I was to replace, hoping to go AX for future proofing.
- mindcrime 4y agoAs I understand it, the AC1900 is Archer A9 based. In either case, OpenWRT runs on my AC1900 just fine. I don't have any insight into anything related to the A20. I should also add that this is my first TP-Link product, and my first time running OpenWRT, so don't take anything I say as gospel. I'd been mainly a Netgear guy for the last 20 years or so until about October of last year.
- AuthorizedCust 4y agoThank you. It's odd that Amazon puts two entirely different routers on the same page.
- mindcrime 4y agoAh. I see what you mean now. Yeah, that toggle button does toggle between two fairly distinct products. Not sure why they did that. And I didn't even notice it at first. I just grabbed the link to the item I bought previously. :-)
- JLCarveth 4y agoA bit pricey but you can always look at the Ubiquiti products[1]. [1] https://store.ui.com/collections/unifi-network-wireless https://store.ui.com/collections/unifi-network-wireless
- AuthorizedCust 4y agoTheir product line is confusing. Finding something that supports AX and gigabit internet and doesn’t break the bank doesn’t appear to be doable with their product line.
- firecall 4y agoIt is a bit confusing right now I find! I think you need a seperate Unifi router and APs to get wifi 6/AX. The integrated cylinder Dream Machines don’t seem to do wifi 6. Not sure :-) Hard to work out.
