Archer TX3000E TP-Link AX3000 Wifi 6 Test Benchmark & Thorough Review

[@ZanderLexx]

I ordered mine , it comes next Monday. Today I got the Archer AX50 router.

[@taisbello]

i have also AX50 router.. i lost alot of upload speed in that router :( how about you ?

[@ZanderLexx]

@@taisbello The 'pure' speed test on from my provider is 1Gbit but the real speed on wire was around 920-950 Mbits/s Now on wireless I get 690 but in real world applications I see no difference at all . Everything is fast as before. Steam works the same, multiplayer games the same with absolutely no lag , also no buffering on even 8k videos on KZbin. But if you connect more that the PC to the router like a tv and a phone on the same 5G band you might loose some download speed but no lag. That's the important one no lag, because even if you connect your PC trough wire you will still lose some bandwidth if you connect other devices as well to the router. Mind you that my router and wireless card have only a wall with a wooden door behind them. That was the point for my setup anyway, no more cables and only from one room to the other.

[@antonioklaic4839]

I got a TX50 but had to return it and get the 3000 because the location behind the pc means it's on the opposite side of the router, and for some reason the PC interferes so much, maybe because of electronics, that unless I reotated the pc on the side it would only give me 80Mbps out of 230Mbps with Ethernet. With the Archer TX3000 I get identical speed like with Ethernet. It's nitpicky but I didn't want my tower sideways, and I can reposition the antenna to get the best spot possible, but the top of the tower is fine and convenient since it's a magnet. .

Hello! im planning to purchase this, have u tested this compared to your stock wifi? any improvements when it comes to latency? Thanks dude

[@ReyDodo]

it’s so you have wifi on a computer not replace it i believe

[@glxygaming_ttv8741]

well basically the more items you have connected to the same wifi will cause more drops because the more items there is the more pressure your putting on your internet speeds cause it has to deliver the connection to miltiple devices and especially with servers.

u must be living a dream life, 9 ping is bad, 190 download speed, my mgps normally is like 20

man you have a great unboxing keep it up man and i would recommend you try with a different router maybe one that matches the ax card speeds

You should connect server with Ethernet cable

[@SlushBoxJunikee]

Does the magnetized base do something. ? I mean , it really improves connection?

[@arcywafu]

Did you connect to 2.4ghz or 5ghz?

[@weicheng-one]

it looks great!

[@rvn920]

I'm not trying to dig here, just want others to get helpful information who wind up here as I did. So for this wifi card to make sense you really need to have a dualband router and an internet connection worthy of such. In my work load I use this card on a plex media server that has far to many drives and fans to want it anywhere near me. It's able to handle streaming out a 70mb/s copy of Dune in dolby vision 4k with no issue what so ever in fact the router becomes taxed if more than a few devices try and use it while this is going on. I can pull my full 1gb down and 40up with this card no issues. Played some light gaming on it and while its still noticeable to people who play FPS at a high level its more than livable for more casual affairs. Max transfer speed recorded was right around 600mb/s but that was the sata based ssd tapping out and not the connection per say. Still a good card for the money even with tri-bands on the market now its hard to see benefit when its near impossible to get a connection fast enough to use it and store media to match.

[@mica4977]

Are you utilizing SSD hard drives to handle the promised faster writing/reading speeds? If so it may be worth checking your Task manager to how much of their power is being utilized.

[@mica4977]

@@CJC051 Is a type of data storage. HDD (Hard Disk Drive) are the older type which have spinning disks while SSD (Solid state drive) don't have any moving parts similar to how memory cards work. HDDs are slower in comparison because they have to physically spin the disk to locate the files or a place to write to, while SSDs don't have that limiting factor. HDDs are sold in two speeds, 7.2k rpms which tops read/writing speeds of up to roughly 110mb/s and ones that spins at 5400 with even slower speeds. Compared to this SSDs have an upper limit of 550mb/s read/writes.

If I am not wrong.... Your router is not as right?

[@NevsTechBits]

Not as right? Not sure what you mean there bud. They are both AX though

[@JaviTooStrong]

On the archer ax3000, could you connect the anntenas directly to the card itself or you need the cables and the base?

[@Donivar]

It's always the same port for antennas, so you can connect them directly or using the cable (as long as they are removable from the base).

[@kelxone]

Old Pc is the issue I guess. Looks like at least 10 years old. I have the same router and adapter. The PCIe ports are the issue on those older pc's.

[@rawjusticeman3128]

Read in some forum that this TX3000E wifi adapter gave issues like Win10 unable to detect it after waken from sleep or able to detect this adapter today but unable to detect it when PC power up tomorrow and so on. Wonder you ever experience an of this issues ?

[@wishvk]

how do I look at password and stuff

[@themastercorpse]

I am thinking of buying it, my "Asus pcie ac88" is failing, it presents a critical error that usually appears after years of use (the device turns off), in my case it only appears with versions of windows 10 20h2 or higher, Asus does not It has released new drivers since 2018, that is why I am thinking of buying this wifi network adapter for wifi technology 6, bluetooth 5.0 and also because it has updated drivers. My question is: is there a next range to this type of network cards with wifi 6 and bt5.0? I am used to using powerful wifi cards like ac88 (ac3100) with 4 antennas.

[@Cheesesalad]

Nice video, thank you! Could you test the bluetooth connection too? I want to use wireless controllers, and my current cards Bluetooth is wack, and is unstable with range and position of controllers and headphones.

[@gadgetsobsession]

You found any solutions mate?

[@Cheesesalad]

@@gadgetsobsession Oh, yes. So far it works good. The bandwith is there. However when you have your thighs up and in front of a controller the input lag gets severe, as the water in your legs is a rather sufficient radiation shield against radio waves. Keep that in mind and you are good.

[@Cheesesalad]

I should add that this depends on where you put the antenna. If it's off center from your position you can put the controller in your lap and put your legs up in front of it no problem. As long as the signal bounces around in the room in a way that can reach your controllers, it works flawlessly. Aim one antenna horizontally and the other vertically and you have optimal coverage. I also have no speed related problems as others mentioned. Find the best spot for the antenna and you are golden. Can't cheat the laws of physics... Take care

[@paul1979uk2000]

Them speeds do seem a bit low, over here we just bought an Asus router and I got myself the Archer tx50e, the router is about 3 or 4 meters away in another room and I'm getting transfer speeds of around 60mb per second, range also seems really good. Only just got it yesterday so still working on optimising it as we've not set it up properly yet, with any luck with some messing on the settings, might get some extra speed and range out of this thing.

[@NevsTechBits]

Thanks for that info Paul. I haven't had my hands on an Asus AX system, but I'm starting to think Asus is the way to go as far as routers go. I got an AC1900 that seems to go faster than all my AX stuff.

[@paul1979uk2000]

@@NevsTechBits Can't honestly say which is the best but the last few routers I've had were Asus, before that it was D-link but had issues with them but that was like 10 years ago. Anyway, Asus are good once you're able to set it up right, routers are a pain in the arse to set up lol like this new one we've got, still working on getting the best out of it.

How do you get bluetooth to work?

It should just work automatically if you are using Windows. You also need to connect a little cable from the card to your MOBO

I just got the TX3000E and I'm experiencing the same problems you're having. Speeds around 80-120 Mbps, regardless of signal strength. I'm getting 250 Mbps across all my other units (3 lap tops, 2 Android phones and an iPad Pro). Even my jankiest lap top from 2011 is getting 250 Mbps. Something is definitely wrong with the Intel chip on these cards. I'll be returning mine shortly for something that works.

[@Bopmaker]

what is the range on this one like how far does it go

[@gritas_]

I have one of these internet adapters and its good. He was getting very low range bc the antennas were inverted. If your range is shit it means the antennas are on the wrong place.
