HKBN and TP-Link Launch Market’s First Certified Wi-Fi 6E Router

More stability, more speed for low latency network enjoyment

HONG KONG, June 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Hong Kong Broadband Network Limited (“HKBN”) and TP-Link have again teamed up as the first Internet service provider in Hong Kong to launch a next generation Wi-Fi 6E router. With its cutting-edge 6GHz ultra-low interference Wi-Fi band, combined with HKBN’s on-site professional installation, Wi-Fi network coverage optimisation analysis and 24/7 customer support, customers can upgrade their network experience hassle-free.

OFCA-certified New 6GHz Band Unleashes Wi-Fi’s Full Potential

Certified by the Office of the Communications Authority of Hong Kong (“OFCA”), TP-Link’s Archer AXE75 Wi-Fi 6E router and its new 6GHz band provides a faster, more stable and lower latency experience, solving overlap and interference problems. By contrast, 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands are more susceptible to interference, especially in Hong Kong’s high-density living environments.  

Besides upgrading router, users can also upgrade their fibre broadband with an additional connection. For the ultimate in stability and speed, HKBN’s 2x1000Mbps dual connection broadband service with two independent IP connections enables everyone in the household to get the most out of bandwidth-intense activities like gaming, 4K streaming and working from home!
