TP-Link Archer AX11000 Gamer Router has tri-band and 802.11ax
Well, that does look .. special? TP-Link will be releasing a new gaming router, the Archer AX11000. This bad boy has tri-band WIFI, but also is 802.11ax compatible. With Tri-band they combine one 2.4 GHz and two 5 GHz bands offering a theoretical throughput of 10.756Mbit/s.
The router will be fitted with a whopping eight antennas, interesting is that it is next-gen compatible, yes it supports the new 802.11ax wireless standard, including 4x4 MU-MIMO support for down- or upload, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDMA) and 1024 QAM. The router has been fitted with eight Gigabit Ethernet ports for wired devices.
The hardware is based on a 64-bit 1.8GHz quad-core CPU and 1 GB of memory and 512 Megabytes of flash memory. It is a gaming router so you may give priority to game-relevant traffic based on the Quality of Service. Pricing and availability of the router will be announced later.

A bit funny, and a little sad, how much processing power a wifi router has.
I assume that's supposed to be Gbit/s?

Interesting if it supports WPA3, and having a tp-link router I'm not happy with their firmware support. no updates for almost a year and with a fairly new router(ac-2300).

lol it may look sturdy but I'm sure the whole thing is made of cheap flimsy plastic. I wouldn't be surprised if there's just a 1mm diameter wire inside each of those thick antennas; I'd be even less surprised if some of those antennas aren't even functional.
So realistically if you fell on it, it'd probably crumble into pieces. But, it is funny to imagine the headlines of someone being killed with a router jammed in their gut:
"Florida man dies as he falls on his router, ironically, because he was upset about the poor reception of the way-too-many antennas it has to offer"
