That one room where the signal just dies. The hallway. The back bedroom. Your router's fine — the house is just bigger than the signal thinks it is.
The Archer Air E5 mounts flat on the wall, 8 mm thick, thinner than the light switch plate next to it. You get included mounting hardware in the box, so no hunting for brackets or accepting an ugly dongle hanging off a shelf. It extends your Wi-Fi 6 network into the spots that used to go dark, with AX3000 speeds: 2402 Mbps on 5 GHz and 574 Mbps on 2.4 GHz.
Smart antennas use directional algorithms to push signal through duplex walls and into rooms your main router can't reach. Smart Roaming means your phone hops between access points without dropping your Zoom call mid-sentence.
Set it up in the Tether app from your phone. Three-year warranty covers you if anything goes sideways
