Best Routers

Router picks for Philippine homes, from budget entry-level models to mesh systems for multi-floor houses with thick concrete walls.

TP-Link Archer AX55

A solid WiFi 6 entry point that pairs well with 300–600Mbps fiber plans from PLDT, Globe or Converge. Around ₱2,500+.

TP-Link Deco Mesh Series

The go-to fix for two-storey homes or units with thick concrete walls — a mesh system covers what a single router can’t reach. Mid-to-high tier.

ASUS RT-AC59U AC1500

A dependable budget dual-band router, a good fit for condos and smaller households. Budget tier.

Xiaomi Mi Router 4C

An ultra-budget option that covers basic browsing and streaming needs for one or two users. Budget tier.

ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX11000

A high-performance option built for gaming households and heavy multi-device use. Premium tier.

Count your dead zones before you buy: one weak spot usually just needs a better single router, but coverage issues across floors or multiple concrete walls call for mesh.
