FAQs
Does the TP-Link Archer TXE73E support the 6 GHz Wi-Fi band?
Yes, the Archer TXE73E is a Wi-Fi 6E adapter with full 6 GHz band support. However, 6 GHz band functionality is currently only supported on Windows 11. Windows 10 and other operating systems will still benefit from 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz connectivity.
What is WPA3 and why does it matter?
WPA3 is the latest Wi-Fi security standard that provides enhanced protection for your passwords and network traffic. It offers stronger encryption and protection against brute-force attacks compared to older WPA2 standard, making it important for both home and business users.
Can I use this adapter with my current router?
Yes. The Archer TXE73E is fully backward compatible with 802.11ax/ac/a/b/g/n standards, so it works with routers using older Wi-Fi standards. However, to benefit from Wi-Fi 6E speeds, you'll need a Wi-Fi 6E router.
Do I need Bluetooth 5.3 support on my devices?
The adapter includes Bluetooth 5.3, but your devices only need to support Bluetooth 5.0 or later to connect. The adapter's Bluetooth 5.3 provides improved range and security for peripheral connections like headsets and mice.
What is included in the box?
The Archer TXE73E comes with the PCIe adapter, a low-profile bracket for flexible case installation, and documentation. The magnetised antenna base is integrated into the adapter.
Is the low-profile bracket necessary?
The low-profile bracket is included and recommended for standard modern PC cases. It helps with proper antenna positioning and mounting. You can also mount it without the bracket if your case allows, though proper antenna clearance is important for signal reception.
What warranty does this product include?
The TP-Link Archer TXE73E includes a 3-year warranty covering manufacturing defects and hardware failures, providing peace of mind for both personal and professional deployments.
