At two walls distance, the 5GHz speed decreased to almost 400Mbps\u2002when going further away. Still\u2002an amazing performance, definitely more than what I expected.

This app enables convenient management of network settings, access control, and usage monitoring via your smartphone. This user-friendly approach makes the router accessible to both tech enthusiasts and novices alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"TP-Link Archer C80 Setup\" class=\"wp-image-2795\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-767x431.jpg 767w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-1536x863.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-2048x1151.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-267x150.jpg 267w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-623x350.jpg 623w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web-788x442.jpg 788w, https:\/\/tplinkwifirouter.com\/lewisreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archer-C80-web.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<style scoped>.rh-review-heading{flex-wrap:wrap}.rh-review-heading__position span{line-height:.78}.rh-review-heading__position span:after{content:\".\"}.rh-review-heading__logo{margin-top:10px;width:100%}.rh-review-heading__logo img{width:auto;max-height:60px}.rh-review-heading__logo-container{max-height:60px;max-width:150px}\n@media only screen and (min-width:480px){.rh-review-heading{flex-wrap:nowrap}.rh-review-heading__logo{margin-top:0;width:auto}}\n.rtl .rh-review-heading .rh-review-heading__position{margin-right:0!important;margin-left:15px}<\/style><div class=\"rh-review-heading rh-flex-center-align mb25\">\t<div class=\"rh-review-heading__position mr15 font150\">\t\t<span class=\"fontbold lightgreycolor font250\">7<\/span>\t<\/div>\t<div id=\"firmware\">\t\t<h2 class=\"mt0 mb0\">TP-Link Archer C80 Firmware\u2002<\/h2>\t\t<div class=\"mt5 lineheight20 greycolor\">Firmware<\/div>\t<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>If you are using the Archer C80, it is\u2002recommended to download the TP-Link Tether app on your phone, which brings a lot of convenience for managing your wireless router. This app shows you more details and allows you to manage your home network easily by connecting to your TP-Link account. The parental controls\u2002option via the TP-Link Tether app for devices allows for keyword blocking to prevent particular content on tracked devices. It also enables setting a daily internet usage time limit\u2002and an internet curfew. You can simply\u2002adjust these settings on the web-based interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\u2002TP-Link Archer C80 also supports access point mode. I think that\u2019s great, considering how good the C80\u2019s WiFi is, makes it a great candidate\u2002for use as an access point. TP-Link has also baked\u2002in a guest WiFi option in this router.<\/p>\n\n\n<style scoped>.rh-review-heading{flex-wrap:wrap}.rh-review-heading__position
