The TP-Link HC220-G5 is an AC1200 dual-band Wi-Fi 5 mesh unit, a straightforward way to add coverage or replace a weak ISP router. It runs as a router or an access point, and extra units join the mesh by pressing WPS.

Built for whole-home coverage

Wi-Fi 5 delivers 867 Mbps on 5 GHz and 300 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, with MU-MIMO, beamforming, airtime fairness and band steering to balance clients. Three Gigabit ports per unit let you wire a TV or NVR, with one port auto-sensing WAN or LAN. EasyMesh and 802.11k/v/r give one network name with roaming between units. Service providers can manage it with TR-069 and TAUC cloud. This listing is the 1-pack.
