Model: Archer AX80  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hello,

 

I'm looking for new home router and I found Archer AX80. The problem is that there seems to be two variants of the router with the same name, with internal and external antennas. 

 

AX80 with internal antennas:

AX80 with external antennas: 

Archer AX80 | AX6000 8-Stream Wi-Fi 6 Router with 2.5G Port | TP-Link

 

I would like to get the one with external antennas, but so far the resellers in my country (Slovenia) seem to only have the model with internal ones. There was actually quite a bit of confusion as one of the resellers claimed the model had external antennas, but I've received the other one. What's the deal with this? Is the model with external antennas region locked to USA (notice that the above url points to US website)?

 

Thanks for your help,

Benjamin

From what I can see that's the case - the one with internal antennas is for the EU market, the other one (with external antennas) is for the US market.
