Help a family member out with TP-Link’s $40 Smart Wi-Fi Router (Save 20%)

$40

Amazon is offering the TP-Link Archer A6 Gigabit Smart 802.11ac Wi-Fi Router for $39.99 shipped. That’s 20% off the typical rate there and is is a match for the lowest 2020 Amazon price we have tracked. If you or one of your family members are still using the modem and router combo unit from your ISP, this is the perfect time to upgrade. It’s an affordable way to not only adopt 1200Mb/s network performance, but also gain smartphone controls via the TP-Link Tether app. Along the back you’ll find four Gigabit LAN ports, providing more outputs than a variety of popular mesh solutions on the market. Rated 4.4/5 stars.
