TP-Link Archer AX55
NETGEAR Nighthawk RS90
The TP-Link Archer AX55 is a better dual-band router than the NETGEAR Nighthawk RS90. Despite being an older Wi-Fi 6 model, the TP-Link delivers superior range, similar speeds and EasyMesh support to expand your network's coverage. The NETGEAR is a nominally more recent Wi-Fi 7 device and holds an edge in wired connectivity with a 2.5Gbps WAN port, compared to the TP-Link's 1Gbps limit. However, the RS90's middling range and lack of mesh extendability makes the TP-Link a more well-rounded offering for gigabit internet plans.
