With blazing-fast 3.6 Gbps Wi-Fi 7 speeds, built-in VPN apps, and versatile operating modes for all travel needs, it sets a new standard as the ultimate travel companion.
Designed for digital nomads, business travelers, and remote workers, the TL-WR3602BE makes it easy to stay connected securely—even on public Wi-Fi. With dual-band speeds up to 2882 Mbps on 5 GHz and 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, it enables seamless streaming, rapid file transfers, and smooth video calls from airports, hotels, cruises, Airbnbs, cafés, or mobile workspaces.
The introduction of the TL-WR3602BE further builds upon TP-Link's 'Wi-Fi 7 for Everyone' mission, expanding next-gen connectivity to a wider array of users and environments.

10 Comments on TP-Link Unveils Its First Wi-Fi 7 Travel Router
I mean, you've got to admit that the design too similar and honestly, almost looks this is a Yin-Yang combo, TP-Links Yin to ASUS' Yang. :laugh:
I mean, fair, but it’s a travel router, only so much can be done with the formfactor. The TP/Link one looks a tad cuter methinks.
Both have borrowed the GL.inet design though.

I guess they have a few generations with the same design.
I reckon that this is a brand-licensed device, then? Might be that the OEM is GL.iNet, like it was posted on the ASUS' news article.
TLS, you ninja'd my thoughts with your edit! :laugh:
I guess they just know that they won't get sued, as there most like isn't a design patent.
GL.inet moved to Qualcomm for their new WiFi 7 model and the Asus has a quad core 2 GHz chip, so that is most likely Broadcom.
