TP-Link - Archer AX72

TP link archer ax72 has fixed all my issues and it was cheap. It's also worth noting that I get my advertised 500mbps over WiFi now, with their router it never went above 300 and even getting that was rare.

TPLink AX5400 or AXE5400, done. Those are around $100/$150 on Amaz right now, I did a quick check I am using AXE in 1800ish. The big thing on routers, be sure it has multiple CPUs in it, different class ARM stuff, but you want more than 1. /cheers

A vote here for the TP-Link AX5400. Works fantastically with the Quest 3 in all the games I've tried so far.

I own AX73 AX5400, C80 AC1900, C6 AC1200, and 3 others from TPlink. Replaced C6 through service centre. AX73 is the best no issue still now.

Return the decos and get another AX5400 and use easy mesh capabilities. What model do you actually have the AXE75 which has the 6ghz channel or do you have the AX75 or AX73 which both do speeds of 5400gbps but are just wifi 6 capable? Either way, all three of those models are easy mesh capable, which would probably be a lot better than having the Deco’s with the same Wi-Fi name and password even though it’s the same network topology it’s still different hardware and it’s probably gonna cause issues. That’s why I suggest the easy mesh route because that keeps the routers pretty much the same and eliminates the Deco hardware.

Hi everyone! Hopefully someone can help me on this topic since I'm not sure if the setup that I currently have for my parent's house is the best as it can be. For context, we live in a bit of a rural area, so we started using starlink to get the best possible connection for remote work. Now, I saw some reviews and recognized that the starlink router is pretty bad even though it does its job, that's the reason I ended up buying the AX5400 Router, which so far has given me 0 problems and has a lot of nice options. My problem/situation comes when I realize that if I want to cover most of my house and a bit beyond it (since we have a lot of open space which is the garden and a guests area) I needed to set up a mesh network. Along with the AX5400 router, I ended up buying a 3 pack of AX300 Deco wi-fi mesh in amazon and gave my best shot at setting up all of what I have, which is the following configuration: \- Starlink router was set to derivation mode as to use the router AX5400 as the actual router as to have better options with guest network, security, port forwarding etc. \- Connected to the AX5400 router via ethernet is one of the AX3000 decos, set as an access point for the network and using the same SSID as the router so that only 1 network appears when searching for wifi (besides the guest network, which was set up from the application for the AX5400 router). \- So far I've only setup 1 of the deco AX3000 in the first floor of my house, close to the guest area, while the other one is stored and ready to be setup somewhere else, this one is also set as an access point and has the same SSID. My doubts/concerns about this, is obviously the fact that since these 2 products don't share the same technology for setting up a mesh, there's nowhere I can see that says "hey, these are your mesh devices while these are the devices connected to your router", and when actually getting decently far away from the router, as in like walking through my garden, I don't know if I'm actually now getting connected to the deco mesh or it's just the AX5400 having great coverage. What I want to get advice on is whether what I'm doing is correct, if I fucked up something, and what could I do to improve my situation. TLDR; Have a AX5400 router and AX3000 deco mesh, don't know if I can use same SSID on decos set as access point or if I fucked up with some of my setup and should change how everything works. Thanks to anyone who might be able to help!

BE3600: (5 GHz speeds of 2882 Mbps and 2.4 GHz speeds of 688 Mbps) (𝟐.𝟎 𝑮𝑯𝒛 𝑸𝒖𝒂𝒅-𝑪𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒓) \-Best for multiple stuff connected by cable because it has a better CPU. \-Best if few stuff connected by it to wifi 2.4, too many then it may have poor performance. why? 2.4 has 688 Mbps and wifi 7 depends on it as well, if you connect a lot of devices capable of 2.4 and 5ghz then you will have a lot of traffic competing with your main stuff, so you will have to manually configure the router to give your main stuff the preference... but even so... the wifi will be shared with IoT stuff... the wifi 7 performance will be hurt by it. AX5400: (6 GHz: 2402 Mbps;5 GHz: 2402 Mbps;2.4 GHz: 574 Mbps) (1.7 GHz Quad-Core CPU) \-Best for multiple devices connected to 2.4GHz and 5GHz while you use your main stuff on 6GHz \-If we are talking about the one that has 2x2.5Gbps WAN/LAN ports then it's a really good wired router even if a little bit worse than the BE3600 because while this has 1.7Ghz Quad-Core, the BE3600 has 𝟐.𝟎 𝑮𝑯𝒛 𝑸𝒖𝒂𝒅-𝑪𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒓.... that is... if we are talking about local data transfers like a NAS... in short: many wifi devices? AX5400 and use 6ghz for your main stuff. few wifi devices and the heavy network traffic will be local stuff by cable? then BE3600
