Description
TP-Link EC220-G5 AC1200 Gigabit Router for Flexible Home and ISP Wi-Fi
The TP-Link EC220-G5 combines dual-band Wi-Fi 5 with Gigabit Ethernet and EasyMesh compatibility, making it a practical router for fibre-connected homes, small offices and managed ISP installations.
It provides separate 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless bands, four external antennas and beamforming, while the Aginet app or web interface provides convenient local setup and management.
Is This Right for You?
- Suitable when your internet connection is supplied through Ethernet from a fibre ONT, modem or upstream network device.
- A useful choice where Gigabit wired connectivity is important for PCs, televisions, gaming consoles or other network equipment.
- EasyMesh compatibility provides an upgrade path when one router does not give sufficient Wi-Fi coverage.
- This is a Wi-Fi router rather than a cellular router and does not provide a built-in 4G or 5G modem.
Why Choose This Product?
- Dual-band AC1200 Wi-Fi: The 2.4GHz band provides up to 300Mbps while the 5GHz band provides up to 867Mbps, allowing suitable devices and applications to use the most appropriate band.
- Gigabit Ethernet: Gigabit WAN and LAN ports avoid the 100Mbps wired bottleneck found on lower-cost Fast Ethernet routers.
- Expandable Wi-Fi coverage: EasyMesh compatibility allows the router to form a unified mesh network with compatible EasyMesh devices when additional coverage is required.
- Better multi-device efficiency: MU-MIMO allows compatible devices to communicate more efficiently when several devices are using the network.
- Focused wireless coverage: Four external antennas and beamforming help concentrate wireless signal towards connected devices.
- Useful management options: Configure the router through its web interface or Aginet app, while TR-069, TR-181, TR-111 and TR-143 support remote ISP management.
- Modern wireless security: WPA3 support adds an updated encryption option when connecting compatible client devices.
Before You Buy
- The EC220-G5 requires an internet service and an Ethernet connection from a compatible modem, fibre ONT or other upstream internet connection.
- Maximum advertised Wi-Fi rates are theoretical wireless link rates; actual throughput and coverage depend on client devices, building materials, interference, network load and internet service speed.
- MU-MIMO and WPA3 functionality requires compatible client devices.
- EasyMesh operation requires compatible EasyMesh devices.
- The router uses a 12V DC, 1A external power supply.
