Description
The TP-Link Archer MR500 (SKU: ARCHER MR500) is a 4G+ Cat6 AC1200 wireless dual band gigabit router that lets you share a fast, reliable mobile broadband connection with every device in your home or office. Simply insert a Nano SIM card and the router acts like a phone to get you online, with 4G+ Carrier Aggregation delivering download speeds of up to 300 Mbps.
Powered by 802.11ac Wi-Fi, the Archer MR500 delivers up to 300 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band for everyday browsing and email, and up to 867 Mbps on the 5 GHz band for HD streaming and online gaming. Beamforming, a Power Amplifier and a Low Noise Amplifier help concentrate and extend your signal for wide coverage, while MU-MIMO technology lets multiple devices connect at the same time with less interference and lower latency.

Four gigabit Ethernet ports (one LAN/WAN port plus three LAN ports) give wired devices such as smart TVs, game consoles and NAS drives a dependable connection. The LAN/WAN port can connect to cable, fibre and DSL modems, and when the router is used as a wireless router, its 3G/4G connection works as a backup to keep you online.
