Pros
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
TP-Link TL-WR840N. The 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection suits messaging, web browsing and basic connected home devices. It makes sense for a modest network where connecting existing equipment matters more than maximum throughput.
Four LAN ports let you wire several devices without buying a separate switch. That is handy for a desktop computer, TV and console that stay in fixed positions.
How do we assess advantages and disadvantages?
Our editorial assessment draws on specifications, manufacturer documentation and available material about the model. It does not imply our own laboratory testing. We distinguish physical RAM from virtual expansion; features and box contents can vary by market. Reference prices are conversions; check the store for the final price of an offer.
