The Virtual Desktop team has specifically warned that some TP-Link AX, Huawei and Tenda routers can exhibit unidentified problems. Higher-end models not on its recommended list may work, but should still be treated as untested. Similar product names can also refer to different hardware—for example, an Archer model is not necessarily equivalent to a Deco model with the same advertised Wi-Fi class.
