Does anyone know the differences between the AX20(US) and the AX1800?  I see the AX1800 is sold at Walmart for $99 whereas the AX20(US) is sold at other online retailers for $129.  Looking at the specs on the TP-Link website, they appear to be the same so why the price difference?  I tried searching but couldn't find a definative answer.  Thanks in advance.

One is sold online (AX20) and one is sold in stores (AX1800). Pricing I would think depends on the backend (not too keen on sales talk).

 

Spec-wise they are the same.

@Tony What kind of reply is this - If the spec are the same - Why sell the same product under two manes

My guess is because Costco, Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy or other major seller wanted a router they can sell where you can not cost compare so they can sell it at their price.

@latinkreationz TP-Link makes a special version of its routers for some retailers. In the case of its Wi-Fi 6 Archer routers, some retailer versions of both routers with the model number AX3000 and AX1800 compared to AX50 and AX20, respectfully. The AX1800 and AX20 are identical so there's nothing to worry about if you're considering the entry level device. Why, perhaps to avoid price comparison? The AX3000, however, is missing one major AX50 feature. HomeCare isn't available on the AX3000 version, which means less useful parental controls, no included antivirus, and a less sophisticated QoS.
