TP-Link Archer GE400 Wi-Fi 7 gaming router review: Excellent gaming features, mixed bag on performance

The TP-Link Archer GE400 is a new dual-band gaming router with an eye-catching design and gaming-specific features like a 2.5 GbE WAN port and RGB lighting. However, performance tests revealed mixed results, with the router falling short in wireless performance compared to its cheaper counterpart, the Archer BE3600. The Archer GE400 offers a range of gaming enhancements that can be managed through the Tether app or web GUI, but its pricing at $219.99 (currently discounted to $169.99) may not justify its performance drawbacks when compared to more affordable options in the market.
