VPNs have grown a great deal over the past few years, and as a result, we have seen an increase in demand for alternative VPN options on TP-Link routers. WireGuard VPN could be one of the most popular VPNs that we are seeing in the public community and forums. We are excited to announce here that we do have some router models that support or plan to support WireGuard VPN feature, and there will be more in the near future.

Moderator Note:

1. WireGuard VPN availability may vary by region, even for the same model. Please check your local website for details.
2. The list above may not include all models and hardware versions. It is recommended to keep watching the firmware releases for your router, as WireGuard VPN and any new features will be noted in the patch notes if/when added to your version.

3. If you're installing a pre-release or beta version of firmware from the official threads, please ensure you read the Terms and Conditions for TP-Link Beta Firmware before proceeding!

 

For other models that are not listed above, there is currently no definitive information if WireGuard VPN would be possible or be available in the future, and we don't have any specific details that I can share around. It's suggested to keep an eye on the official website or on the router web GUI/Tether app for any new updates.

 

Welcome to leave your comment below if you want to see your router to be added to the supported list. Be sure to include the specific model number and hardware version when requesting. Thank you very much.

@COCOTHAILAND 

 

Thank you for asking.

 

As stated in my above post, please don't take this Planned as a guarantee, as the plan can be adjusted or changed. Planned is also not recommended for your purchase reference if the requested feature is the main consideration. It's suggested to choose one that already supports the features you require when purchasing. The list above is subject to change and might not include all models and hardware versions. We will update it once there are new models or hardware available.

Dumb but quick question. The AX73(AX5400) mentioned above, does that mean all AX73 versions regardless of which region it was bought? Say EU or HK versions?

@HAYWIRE Sorry, this hasn't been confirmed yet. Do you have an HK version? It seems I cannot find this version. Basically, the US and EU versions are planned to support WireGuard VPN.

 

But again, this is not a guarantee, and it's not suggested to purchase one when it's not implemented the feature you required. It's suggested to buy one that already has.

  @Kevin_Z. No worries. My box says EU v2.0, but I believe this came from HK when I purchased it. Nevertheless, I do not use the VPN client now due to the router's performance limitations with the OpenVPN protocol. I sure hope WireGuard drops on the AX73 that I have.
