For the money, you get AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 speeds, four open Ethernet ports, and great software support. The TP-Link Archer AX21 isn't the fastest router you can get by any stretch, but it's fast enough for most homes and comes in at a fantastic price. Even so, the newer AX55 model comes with OneMesh support, so you can expand your coverage with a compatible extender. For what you get, the price is reasonable, but it's also worth mentioning that the model this replaced, the AX50, had more features unlocked by default with HomeCare. TP-Link has opted for its HomeShield software for security and parental controls with this model. While some areas will not be able to use DFS due to radar interference, most people will have no such issues. Further aiding congestion mitigation is support for a DFS band that is more often than not vacant. While this may seem like overkill, the extra headroom can help keep speeds high even in areas with high congestion like an apartment building. It doesn't even go to waste with support for 2Gbps WAN with link aggregation.
