TP-LINK Ships AC3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers
TP-LINK, a leading global provider of consumer and SMB networking products, today announced the availability of its Archer C3200 AC3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers that utilize breakthrough Tri-Band technology to meet and manage the heavy networking demands of today's connected homes. The Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers operate at a combined speed of up to 3.2Gbps, with two 5GHz bands that reach up to 1300Mbps each and one 2.4GHz band that reaches up to 600Mbps, making it ideal for supporting a large number of wireless devices like smartphones, laptops and other connected devices simultaneously.
"With the availability of Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers, consumers can keep all of their favorite Wi-Fi devices running at once using their smartphones, tablets, laptops, PCs and other connected devices without having to worry about slowing down the network," said Lewis Wu, executive vice president of TP-LINK USA. "We're utilizing advanced technologies that can handle multiple devices and provide a faster and more reliable experience to keep up with consumers' expectations in today's digital world."
Connect More Devices
With its revolutionary Tri-Band technology, the Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers connect more devices by offering a second 5GHz network. For smart homes with many connected devices, this router is the ideal solution to let everyone load, stream and game at the same time without compromising the home network's overall performance. For example, mobile devices handling everyday tasks like browsing and emailing can be assigned to the traditional 2.4GHz band, while devices that are attempting to complete more bandwidth-intensive online tasks like 4K HD streaming or multi-player online gaming are assigned to the one of the 5GHz bands.
Lightning-fast Wi-Fi
Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers feature one of the fastest combined Wi-Fi speeds of up to 3200Mbps, with 600Mbps over the 2.4GHz band and 1300Mbps on the two 5GHz bands, avoiding the bottlenecks that occur when multiple devices demand high amounts of bandwidth at the same time.
To maintain high performance, Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers leverage one powerful 1GHz dual-core processor emitting fast, stable and responsive performance for all tasks and three co-processors exclusively handle the Wi-Fi tasks over the three Wi-Fi bands to optimize the Wi-Fi performance of the router.
Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers include four gigabit Ethernet ports to enable super-fast connections with other wired devices and one USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 port to share printers, files and media within the network.
Reach Further
Equipped with six high-performance external antennas, Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers greatly increases the Wi-Fi coverage throughout a large home. The routers utilize beamforming technology in order to easily locate wireless devices and form stronger, more reliable connections.
Archer C3200 Key Features:
Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers are available today at Fry's and the TP-LINK store and will be available soon at other major retailers in store and online. Featuring a 2-year limited warranty and 24/7 tech support, MSRP for Archer C3200 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Routers is $259.99.

Reminds me of a crown rack of lamb. TP link does make good products.
why dont they put some internal antenna? and make it looks better than that one?
Problem solved.
Can't tell the difference...
Anyways, I like the C2600 as it's still your standard dual 2.4 / 5.0 bands. But the throughput on each band has been upped. 800 on the 2.4 (which is almost as fast as some of the lower AC standards) and 1733 on the 5.0.

Only problem still, is you need to make sure your clients can take advantage of that. As more likely than not, your just going to be using your laptops 2x2 connection maxing at 867 on 5.0 band. You need to make sure you have 3x3 (and soon 4x4) clients that can utilize each stream to it's max potential. (Why I still own 2 x Asus PCE-AC68's and am sticking to my Nighthawk R7000)

All the drink in your cup, and you only have a coffee straw to sip from :)
But, I don't think, that even today an adapter exists that can use MUMIMO. (IIRC, I think Asus even disabled it via Firmware on their router until "further notice")
The former is QCA's and the later is Broadcom's
Only way is to buy two routers and bridge them. That's king of the lame.
NOBODY GON GET DAT. ya'all dont got no 'dapters
even bridging them limits it to 1Gbps. unless it has LACP or something. and 10Gbe ports by then you go "eff it!!" and get 10Gbe cards and an enterprise grade 10Gbe switch.
Need MOAR JUICE
