I’ll admit I’m a big fan of TP Link products in general having many of their smart products, from routers, to smart plugs, and even security cameras. I’ve owned this brand of Wi-Fi router in the past so I felt pretty confident in spending a bit and upgrading to their Wi-Fi 7 router. Now to be fair and perfectly honest, upgrading to a Wi-Fi 7 router at this point in time is way early to the game and for the large majority of people quite frankly unnecessary. I like to stay a little bit ahead of the curve so I thought I’d bite the bullet. On any given day, I have probably 70+ devices connected to the router. And out of that many only about three can even connect to the newest 6 GHz band on this router to take advantage of the fullest speed possible. And this is why I would suggest that most people hold off on buying Wi-Fi 7 at the moment, at least until smart devices catch up and can access the 6 GHz band. Even my Apple TV 4K cannot access the newest band! Now onto this router specifically, so far, I really love it! I’m using just a single router to cover an entire 3000 square-foot house and it’s doing a fantastic job without need to buy other mesh routers and increase the spend tremendously! I honestly can’t believe how small this thing is compared to most huge routers that can provide this same level of speed! As is typical with TP Link routers, the Wi-Fi speeds are as fast as I expected! The set up was super fast and easy using their Deco app. In fact, I can manage almost everything I need to within the app. This includes changing the DNS settings to either Cloudflare or Google. With prior routers from TPLink I was having to go to a website to manage deeper settings on the router, but not so with this one, and that makes things quite a bit easier. Another thing that makes this router very useful for me is the 2.4GHz IOT Band that is specifically set up for those devices. So basically, I set up all of my smart plugs, cameras, and everything else on that band to maintain better privacy. I really like that they included this feature on these routers! I have AT&T fiber with 1000Mbps service and as you can see with the included picture, I’m actually getting a nice chunk over that! But keep in mind I was right next to the router in getting this result. As you move further from the router, the speeds will move down in tandem. Overall, I’m very happy with the router and hope it will provide many years of service!

This product is so good we bought two. It is a little pricey, but worth the money. The signal strength is excellent and the setup was very simple and easy. We bought a second one to extend the signal to a room over our garage and it works perfectly. Best wifi we have ever had.

I switched to TPLink about 3 years after deciding that I needed a mesh network for full coverage of my home. This device was the latest upgrade to my network and I love the features of it as well as the ease of use. The app is simple and straightforward, but is also feature-rich and gives me lots of options. Dynamic QOS was easy to setup and has improved the overall experience. I also like having the ability to upgrade my devices over time without having to do a full rework of the network. I just add a new device and switch the main router over to the best thing I have. It's two steps and super simple. Highly recommend. I have also been able to set up my parents and my sister on the system and they are able to make me a co-manager of their network. That way I can help them troubleshoot even from four states away.

My CR1000A Verizon router broke. I upgraded from G3100 for speed reasons but G3100 was so stable. Not a week after my friend 's CR1000A broke, mine did too. I was frustrated without Internet. Most routers are so ugly and distasteful with so many antenna looking like a UFO about to take off. All my furniture were white so I didn't have a whole lot of options. My initial choice was Google Nest but it was so basic even though it looks good. So I opted for this good rated one. It's half the size of my Verizon router. I love that white cylinderical look. The LED indicator of green saying connection to internet and red saying disconnected is just so helpful. Now, I'm happy with the purchase for my use. I have a small place so mesh is not necessary. In fact, I might return it if I needed mesh. My friend has Google Nest and it runs smoothly. Deco was causing issues because mesh was on. I read forums and found that it's a known issue so I went into all my devices and turned off mesh mode. It was trying to find the best signal for me and if I'm moving away from the router/node, it was dropping connection. I cannot say if this issue is no longer there if there's another node. For me, as only using a single node, it was necessary for me to turn off mesh mode individually in all my wifi devices. If you are having problems with this as a single node, try turning off mesh mode and 'fast roaming'. If you have hard wire switches throughout your house, make sure you power cycle them. I was scratching my head trying to troubleshoot why my wired speed were 1/3 of what it should be. Power cycling the switches fixed it. Wireless speed is amazing. There's no drop in speed. It's exactly the speed I subscribed from my ISP. Another upside to this router is that it has 2.5gbps LAN ports. My house is wired in CAT 6 and 7 so I can take advantage of this except I'll need to upgrade my switches, NAS and computer NIC, lol. For the premium price I paid, it should have been 10 gbps LAN because even the Verizon CR1000A has 10 gbps LAN. I don't get why 10 gbps LAN tp-link routers are above $500. Unbelievable. Wait a few years I guess. With Verizon, I used to have to use a desktop web browser to manage my network which I didn't know was so outdated. I can now do all of that from Deco app on my phone. It's so intuitive and didn't need a whole lot of learning or prior knowledge. I love this Deco app. I can see all my clients, separate IoT network for my wifi light switches, reserve DHCP address, block, isolate clients, etc. all on my phone. That's so convenient. I tried chat support with Deco support. I had a pleasant experience. Didn't have to wait too long. The support guy made sense and knew what he was saying. Bottom line: It looks good and it works great once the mesh mode is turned off in single-node configuration. It's $100 more expensive than what I wanted to spend on but I didn't have a lot of options for white routers that looks great, works great, and fast.

It's been really hard to buy a good router lately. We've had to choose between hideous contraptions that look like belly-up spiders, or unassuming bricks that don't mess up your home decor but mess up your internet connectivity by not being good at their main job. Is the TP-Link Deco BE63 (Wi-Fi 7) a good router? It appears so. That'll depend on the durability factor a year from now. But so far, the router was easy to set up. It is giving me the close to a gigabit of speed I'm paying for, and it covers my 1050 sq-ft apartment just fine. A couple of odd ends though: Many will find off-putting having to create an online account with TP-Link in order to set up the router. I wish it had the option of connecting to a web page and do the setup the old-school way, but it is what it is. Another odd thing is that this router does not have a dedicated WAN port. You can plug the cable from your modem or wall socket into any of the four ethernet ports and the router will take things from there. Just in case, do not plug any other wired internet device (computer, gaming console, NAS or VoIP phone adapter) into the router until you have confirmed your internet is working via Wi-Fi. All in all, not a bad user experience so far. Could it have been better? Yes, but not bad for today's standards. Hopefully this router lasts more than a year. I will update this review to see how that goes.

Where do I begin with the TP-Link Tri-Band WiFi 7 Mesh System? It's like buying a ticket to a comedy show but ending up in a horror movie—the kind where Wi-Fi nightmares come true! Let's start with the promises—oh, they're as grand as a unicorn parade! 6-Stream 10 Gbps, 4 × 2.5G Ports Wired Backhaul, 4× Smart Internal Antennas, VPN, AI-Roaming, MU-MIMO, HomeShield—sounds like a technological utopia, right? Wrong! The setup process—imagine trying to decipher an alien language. I followed the instructions religiously, but somehow ended up summoning a toaster instead of configuring the network. It's like a puzzle designed by a mad scientist who laughs maniacally as you struggle to connect a device that seems determined to stay offline. And speaking of connections, this mesh system plays hide-and-seek with your devices better than any magician. One minute your laptop is happily streaming, the next it's lost in a Wi-Fi Bermuda Triangle. It's the ultimate game of "Now you see it, now you don't!" Your internet signal becomes a ghost, haunting your hopes of a stable connection. The speed? It's like watching a snail race in slow motion. You'd think with all that "10 Gbps" hype, the internet would be faster than The Flash on caffeine. But nope, it moves at the speed of a turtle with a backpack full of bricks. But wait, there's more! Let's talk about AI-Roaming—it's like a robot chauffeur who keeps getting lost. Instead of smoothly transitioning between access points, it's more like a chaotic dance routine, with your devices hopping from one weak signal to another like a kangaroo on a pogo stick. And the customer support—well, it's a bit like asking a fish for climbing tips. You're more likely to get swimming advice than a solution to your connectivity woes. It's like they've attended a crash course in evading customer queries. In conclusion, the TP-Link Tri-Band WiFi 7 Mesh System is a tragic comedy, a technological misadventure that leaves you yearning for simpler times when dial-up connections seemed like a luxury. If you're considering this system, prepare yourself for a rollercoaster ride of frustration, disappointment, and an internet experience that's more fiction than fact.

Great router if you’re trying to get your actual 2.5gb/s internet speed. It’s really the only plug n play router I’m aware of that will not limit you to 1gb/s. I will say the WiFi strength leaves a little to be desired but I live in an old house that has concrete plaster for walls. So to be fair it does do pretty well. There’s only one room (upstairs on the opposite side of my house) that gets a shoddy signal. When I switch to 2.4ghz in that room it works good enough. I also really like the app for this router. I can see all the devices on the network, how much each device is using, and I can see if someone has tried to access the network. Which to me is a nice security feature. It also allows you to change the MAC address to match the router provided by your ISP. If you have FIDIUM this is a must, because if you call FIDIUM and ask them to change the MAC address to the one on your new router they will just completely botch this process and they won’t know how to fix it. So just copy the MAC address from their router to this one. Trust me. All in all I would definitely recommend.

Product works great, but for 2 months, it kept going down. A year later ... Issue is no more. It's VPN features are great. Since it allows wireguard. But yet again, problems. VPN DNS had issues and then I couldn't access the inner network via VPN. It's so weird. Now I can, days later. Also, no web interface for set up and configuration change. You must use the app. REALLY!? Ridiculous. My biggest pet peeve is the INSANE decision to have the guest network be on the same subnet as the main network, just separated by a vlan. So now, if I want to use home assistant or a server that talks to devices on the guest network... It doesn't route.... Because SAME SUBNET! INSANE. And the IOT network literally has full access to the main network. INSANE. I cannot recommend this at all for anyone in DIY.
