Ultra-Thin Design,
Extraordinary Performance
AX3000 Wi-Fi 6 Air Router

Ultra-Thin and Minimalist Design
Archer Air R5 has a compact size of 210×148×10.8mm and is even thinner than a wall outlet.

The pure white shell, minimalist lines and rounded corners form an elegant appearance and make Archer Air R5 better integrated with modern home interiors.

The LED and WPS 2-in-1 button on the front and the Type-C power port on the bottom further simplify Archer Air R5’s look.

Flexible Installation, Ultra Convenience
Archer Air R5 is designed to easily mount onto walls and offers multiple installation methods. With two 3M adhesives on its back and a plastic bracket accessory, you can paste or mount it on a wall. Its freer placement also saves electrical socket space.

Live in the Fast Lane with WiFi 6
Armed with AX3000 WiFi 6, Air R5 is built to deliver a huge boost in speed, capacity, and coverage.

Smart Antennas for All-Round Coverage
Archer Air R5’s built-in smart antennas use intelligent algorithms to auto-detect your devices’ locations and switch to the optimal antenna arrays, ensuring all-round stable signals even in duplex houses.

Boosted WiFi Signals Throughout Your Home
Armed with 4× powerful FEM and built-in smart antennas, Archer Air R5 boosts WiFi signals throughout your home. Beamforming technology detects devices and concentrates signals towards them, especially in hard-to-reach areas.

Flexibly Create Whole Home Mesh WiFi
Archer Air R5 is EasyMesh-compatible. If you have any dead zones at home, simply add another EasyMesh router/range extender to further form your whole home multi-gigabit mesh WiFi. No more searching for a stable connection. For a better network experience, we recommend combining with Archer Air E5.

How to use

Place the Archer Air R5 on a wall or flat surface close to your internet source and power outlet. Connect the router to your modem via the RJ‑45 WAN port and power it through the Type‑C port. Use the Tether mobile app (Android/iOS) or the web interface to complete the guided setup: create a Wi‑Fi name (SSID), set a password, and enable HomeShield or VPN server features as needed. For mesh coverage, add another EasyMesh-compatible device and follow the app instructions to join the mesh network.

Recommendations

To optimise coverage, mount the router centrally and at a moderate height. Enable Smart Roaming and Beamforming in settings for stable performance when moving between rooms. For multi-unit mesh systems, pair with another EasyMesh device (recommended: Archer Air E5) to remove dead zones. Keep automatic firmware updates enabled to maintain security and functionality.
