Verdict

The Tenda RX2 Pro is an entry-level AX1500 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router designed for home environments, delivering speeds up to 1501Mbps (1201Mbps on 5GHz and 300Mbps on 2.4GHz). It features five external 6dBi high-gain antennas for broad coverage, four full Gigabit Ethernet ports (1 WAN, 3 LAN), and advanced technologies like MU-MIMO, OFDMA, and Beamforming to maintain stability with multiple connected devices. Main pros include its highly affordable price point, easy setup via the Tenda app or web UI, and modern security with WPA3 and IPv6 support. However, some users have reported the build quality feels less robust, and there are occasional reports of connectivity inconsistencies on the 5GHz band for certain high-speed connections.
