FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
TP-Link Archer VX1800V (AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 VDSL2/ADSL Modem Router) — FAQ
What is the TP-Link Archer VX1800V?
The Archer VX1800V is a Wi-Fi 6 (AX1800) modem router with an integrated VDSL2/ADSL modem, VoIP (SIP) telephony support, and EasyMesh capability for expanding whole-home coverage.
Is it compatible with VDSL2 and ADSL (UK broadband)?
Yes. It supports VDSL2 and ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+. It also supports Super VDSL (VDSL2 Profile 35b) (often used for faster DSL lines where available).
How fast is the Wi-Fi (AX1800) in real terms?
AX1800 class means up to 1201 Mbps on 5 GHz + 574 Mbps on 2.4 GHz (theoretical link rates). Real-world speeds depend on your device, distance, walls, and interference.
How many Ethernet ports does it have?
It includes 3× Gigabit LAN ports plus 1× Gigabit WAN/LAN port for flexible setup (LAN-only or WAN if using a separate modem/ONT).
Can I use it with Full Fibre (FTTP) instead of DSL?
Yes. If your ISP provides a fibre ONT/modem, you can connect it to the router’s Gigabit WAN/LAN port and run the Archer in a wireless router mode (no DSL line needed).
Does it support VoIP and landline phones?
Yes. It supports SIP VoIP and an analog phone via its FXS (telephone) port, plus call features like call forwarding/blocking and more (varies by provider).
RJ11 ports: what’s the difference between the DSL port and the phone (FXS) port?
- DSL RJ11 = connects to your phone line/filter for VDSL/ADSL internet.
- FXS RJ11 = connects to an analog telephone for VoIP calling once VoIP is configured.
How do I set up VoIP (SIP) on the Archer VX1800V?
Enter the SIP details your provider gives you (SIP server/registrar, username, password, and any required ports). If calls fail or you get one-way audio, your provider may ask you to adjust NAT/ALG settings.
Do I need to disable SIP ALG for VoIP to work?
Sometimes. Some VoIP providers recommend disabling SIP ALG to prevent call drops or one-way audio. On TP-Link xDSL routers this is typically found under Advanced → NAT Forwarding → ALG.
What is EasyMesh and how does it help?
EasyMesh lets you add compatible EasyMesh routers/range extenders to create a single mesh network with one Wi-Fi name and smoother roaming around the home.
Does it support IPTV / VLAN settings for UK ISPs?
Yes. It includes an IPTV feature in the router settings. This is commonly used for ISP requirements like VLAN tagging (exact settings depend on your ISP).
Can I use a 4G dongle as backup internet?
Yes. The Archer VX1800V has a USB 2.0 port that supports 3G/4G USB modems for a backup (or alternative) internet connection. Compatibility depends on the specific dongle model/region.
What can I do with the USB port besides 4G backup?
The USB port can also be used for USB storage sharing on your network (e.g., file sharing/media server features) depending on your setup and permissions.
Does it support VPN?
Yes. The software features list includes support for VPN types such as OpenVPN, PPTP, and IPSec (useful for remote access or connecting sites/devices).
Is it secure (WPA3) and does it support parental controls?
Yes. It supports WPA3 security options and includes features like Parental Controls, guest network, and QoS (exact availability depends on firmware version).
