This eliminates the complexity of managing individual devices and enables IT teams to monitor and configure the network from anywhere.
Security is paramount. The router supports comprehensive VPN protocols (IPsec, OpenVPN, L2TP, PPTP) for secure branch office connectivity, while advanced firewall policies, DoS defence, and granular filtering protect against threats. With 41.5 Mbps IPsec throughput and support for up to 25,000 concurrent sessions, it handles demanding business traffic without compromise.
Ideal for organisations transitioning to cloud-managed networking or expanding multi-site operations, the TL-ER605 combines enterprise security with the simplicity of centralised management.

FAQs
What is the difference between the fixed WAN port and the changeable WAN/LAN ports?
The TL-ER605 has one dedicated fixed gigabit WAN port for primary internet connectivity, plus one fixed gigabit LAN port. The three additional gigabit ports can be configured as either WAN or LAN connections depending on your network needs, allowing up to four total WAN connections for multi-ISP or failover scenarios.
How many VPN connections can the TL-ER605 support simultaneously?
The router supports up to 20 LAN-to-LAN IPsec connections, 16 OpenVPN connections, 16 L2TP connections, and 16 PPTP connections. This makes it suitable for businesses with multiple branch offices or remote site connectivity requirements.
