The Archer AX23V is an Amazon-only vertical Wi-Fi 6 router identical to the Archer AX73V released this month. The small housing of the “smallest in the series” size (130 mm wide × 150 mm long), which is as compact as a paperback book, can be flexibly installed even in narrow shelves and spaces with limited storage space.
It supports IPv6 IPoE and Wi-Fi 6 technology and offers a total speed of 1.8Gbps (5GHz: 1201Mbps + 2.4GHz: 574Mbps). Since it is also compliant with EasyMesh, you can build mesh Wi-Fi by using it in combination with compatible devices. Although it is a minimal size, it is a highly practical model that supports a maximum of 36 connected devices.
TP-Link plans to expand its lineup of space-saving types in the future, and will develop products that meet the needs of Japan customers, including Amazon-limited models.

*1: The maximum wireless signal rate is a physical speed derived from the specifications of the IEEE 802.11 standard. Speed and coverage specifications are based on test results under typical usage conditions. Actual wireless data throughput, wireless coverage and maximum number of connected devices are affected by 1) environmental factors such as building materials and physical obstacles, 2) the amount and density of interference traffic from the neighborhood, the location of the product, network complexity, network overhead, and the client’s limitations, such as 3) rated performance, location, connection quality, client conditions, etc. It is not guaranteed. To use Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), the client terminal must also support them.
*2: To use IPv6 IPoE, it is necessary to contract and use a line that supports IPv6 IPoE. There are various types of IPv6 IPoE, such as v6 Plus, OCN Virtual Connect, and DS-Lite. Please check the type of IPv6 IPoE service provided by your contracted provider in advance. IPv6 PPPoE is not supported.
*3: To use WPA3, the client terminal must also support WPA3.
*4: TP-Link’s EasyMesh-compatible devices can be combined with devices that comply with the EasyMesh standard to form a mesh network. In theory, it is possible to connect with fully compatible devices, but we cannot guarantee connection with devices made by other companies.
