  @Kevin_Z , would like this feature to be added to Archer AX10 v1.0. This entry level wifi 6 router, I believe is owned by a lot of people.

The official firmware has been published via Cloud and you should be able to detect it in one day or two.

 

The local website update may be slower than the Cloud update, you can download the firmware from the global website:

I'm repeating myself, I know, but the Archer AX11000 is simply excellent. I've had mine for nearly three years now...

People have their preferences, and a few friends of mine use routers from other brands, but the AX11000 shines in terms of range and stability, I wouldn't exchange it for anything.

I saw a few people requested AX50 v1.0. I am adding another request for this model.

Can TP-Link Consider  adding VPN Client to AX3000 (Archer AX53). I understood most modern TP Link routers had the ability to support Nord VPN but seems like this router doesnt have the VPN client server option so isnt any use to me as is.
