WPA3, external HDD USB support and VPN

2019-09-20 00:05:08 - last edited 2019-10-25 11:27:13

Model: Archer C2300

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hi to all.

I would like to buy a TP-Link Archer C2300 Router for my home network and as the title suggests, I have these 3 questions:

1) Is there / will there be any support for WPA3 ?

2) Do the USB ports support external HDDs / SSDs or only Flash Storage USB Drives?

If they support HDDs/SSDs, up to which capacity and which file system is supported?

3) Regarding VPN support, does it support a VPN Service (e.g. NordVPN, ExpressVPN, etc.) or is this VPN

service for the router itself, to convert it into a VPN server for the home network?

Thank you very much in advance for your help! :)

For the WPA3 capability, it is suggested to keep an eye on official website.

The Archer C2300 supports USB saharing feature, and it can support more than 4TB HDD theoretically. And it supports fat32、ntfs、exfat、hfs+.

It supports OpenVPN server and PPTP VPN server.

May it help and have a nice day.
