It delivers up to 867Mbps on the 5GHz band and 300Mbps on the 2.4GHz band, with four fixed external antennas, beamforming and 2×2 MU-MIMO technology.

The Archer C50 can operate as a Router, Access Point or Range Extender, depending on the hardware version and firmware. Current TP-Link India information also lists EasyMesh support on compatible versions, allowing compatible TP-Link routers and range extenders to work together to create a seamless whole-home Wi-Fi network.

TP-Link Archer C50 AC1200 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router

The Archer C50 is designed for users who need an affordable dual-band wireless router with AC1200-class Wi-Fi performance. Its simultaneous 2.4GHz and 5GHz operation allows compatible devices to use the less-congested 5GHz band for higher-speed applications while maintaining 2.4GHz compatibility for devices that require greater range or legacy Wi-Fi support.

With a theoretical combined wireless class of AC1200, Archer C50 provides:

  • 867Mbps maximum theoretical speed on 5GHz
  • 300Mbps maximum theoretical speed on 2.4GHz
  • Dual-band simultaneous wireless operation
  • 2×2 MU-MIMO
  • Beamforming
  • Four fixed external antennas
  • Router, Access Point and Range Extender modes on current India listings

867Mbps 5GHz + 300Mbps 2.4GHz

Archer C50 supports Wi-Fi 5 using IEEE 802.11ac on 5GHz and IEEE 802.11n on 2.4GHz.

Wireless Band Maximum Theoretical Speed Wireless Standard
5GHz 867Mbps 802.11ac
2.4GHz 300Mbps 802.11n
Combined Wi-Fi Class AC1200 Dual-Band

The 867Mbps and 300Mbps figures are theoretical wireless PHY rates. Actual internet speed and local network throughput will be lower and depend on the connected device, signal strength, interference, channel conditions, client capability, Ethernet connection and other network factors.

Four External Antennas

Archer C50 features four fixed external antennas designed to provide stable wireless connectivity across different areas of a home or small office.

The antenna array works together with beamforming technology to concentrate wireless transmission toward compatible connected devices, helping improve wireless coverage and connection reliability.

Beamforming Technology

Beamforming helps the router identify connected wireless clients and focus the wireless signal toward them instead of transmitting uniformly in every direction.

This can improve signal strength and wireless performance for compatible devices, particularly when the client is located away from the router or in another part of the coverage area.

2×2 MU-MIMO for Multiple Devices

Archer C50 supports 2×2 MU-MIMO, allowing the router to communicate with multiple compatible MU-MIMO devices more efficiently than conventional single-user wireless communication.

MU-MIMO is particularly useful in homes and small offices where multiple smartphones, laptops, smart TVs and other Wi-Fi devices are connected simultaneously.

Dual-Band Wi-Fi for Different Applications

The two wireless bands can be used according to the requirements of different devices.

Band Typical Advantage Suitable Applications
2.4GHz Better compatibility and broader propagation IoT devices, basic browsing, smart-home devices
5GHz Higher theoretical speed and typically less congestion Streaming, downloads, video calls, PCs and smart TVs

Using dual-band Wi-Fi allows compatible devices to be distributed between the two bands instead of placing every client on the same wireless frequency.

1× 10/100Mbps WAN + 4× 10/100Mbps LAN

Archer C50 provides one Fast Ethernet WAN port and four Fast Ethernet LAN ports.

Port Quantity Speed Purpose
WAN 1 10/100Mbps Internet connection
LAN 4 10/100Mbps Wired devices

Important: Archer C50 does not have Gigabit Ethernet ports. The Ethernet interface can therefore become a practical throughput limitation when connecting high-speed broadband services or high-performance wired devices.

Router Mode

In Router mode, Archer C50 connects to an internet modem or Ethernet-based internet service and creates a private wired and wireless network.

Supported WAN connection types include:

  • Dynamic IP
  • Static IP
  • PPPoE
  • PPTP
  • L2TP

This makes the router compatible with many common broadband connection configurations.

Access Point Mode

Archer C50 can be configured as an Access Point to add Wi-Fi connectivity to an existing wired network.

This is useful when the primary router, firewall or gateway is already installed but additional wireless coverage is required in another room, floor or office area.

Range Extender Mode

Current TP-Link India specifications list Range Extender Mode for Archer C50. In this mode, the router can extend the wireless coverage of an existing compatible wireless network.

Wireless range extension performance depends heavily on the position of the Archer C50 and the signal quality received from the primary router.

EasyMesh Whole-Home Wi-Fi

Current Archer C50 India information lists EasyMesh support on compatible versions. EasyMesh allows compatible routers and range extenders to work together as a mesh network with features such as seamless roaming and a unified Wi-Fi network.

Hardware and firmware compatibility should be checked before creating an EasyMesh network because Archer C50 has multiple hardware revisions and feature availability can vary between versions.

WPA3 Wi-Fi Security on Current Versions

The current TP-Link India Archer C50 product page lists WPA3 Wi-Fi encryption along with WPA, WPA2 and WPA/WPA2-Enterprise options.

However, TP-Link’s V6-specific specification page lists WEP, WPA and WPA2 rather than WPA3. Therefore, security features should be verified against the exact hardware version and firmware supplied with the unit.

Guest Network

Archer C50 supports separate guest Wi-Fi networks, allowing visitors to access the internet without giving them direct access to the primary private network.

The current India specification lists:

  • 1× 5GHz Guest Network
  • 1× 2.4GHz Guest Network

Guest networking is useful for homes, offices, shops and small businesses where visitors or customers need Wi-Fi access.

Parental Controls

Archer C50 includes parental-control features such as URL filtering and time controls. These functions can be used to manage when selected devices can access the internet and restrict specified websites or categories according to the available firmware features.

Quality of Service

Archer C50 provides QoS by device, allowing network administrators to prioritize selected devices when multiple users are sharing the same internet connection.

QoS can be useful when bandwidth is being shared between activities such as video streaming, online meetings, downloads, browsing and other network traffic.

IPv4 and IPv6 Support

Archer C50 supports both IPv4 and IPv6, allowing it to operate with modern IP networks and internet services that use IPv6 addressing.

IPTV Support

TP-Link lists IPTV features including IGMP Proxy, IGMP Snooping, Bridge and Tag VLAN. These features can help optimize IPTV traffic on supported internet services and network configurations.

NAT Forwarding Features

Archer C50 includes common NAT and port-management functions:

  • Port Forwarding
  • Port Triggering
  • DMZ
  • UPnP

These functions can be useful for applications and services that require inbound connectivity from the internet.

SPI Firewall and Network Security

The router includes an SPI firewall together with access-control functions and IP & MAC binding. Application Layer Gateway features are also listed on the current India product page.

TP-Link Tether App

The TP-Link Tether app provides a convenient way to manage supported router settings from Android and iOS mobile devices.

Depending on the hardware version and firmware, Tether can be used for common router management tasks such as wireless configuration, connected-device management and network settings.

Cloud-Based Router Management

The current Archer C50 India product page lists remote router control through the cloud. TP-Link ID and OTA firmware upgrade functions are also listed for the current product configuration.

LED Control

The current Archer C50 listing also includes LED control, allowing the router’s LED indicators to be scheduled or disabled according to supported firmware functionality. This can be useful in bedrooms or other locations where bright status LEDs may be distracting.
