In that case I would reccomend a tp link archer be 6500 for half the price. Its wifi7 with no 6ghz just mlo on 2.4ghz and 5ghz. I used one to replace a nighthawk be12000 that was $400 and absolute dogshit.

One thing in wifi you need to factor in the max theorical performance is always impossible due to interference , hardware defects, and diminishing signal loss from distance . You need a lot of headroom to account that and some more because in 2025 everyone have at least 3-4 devices contesting the bandwidth. ATM there's still limited wifi NIC and routers that completely implement wifi7 features(tri-band, tri-band MLO etc) . You will pay a heft premium for top tier routers. I'd say BE6400+ routers is the sweetspot right now. If you want tri band then you need to shell out extra for BE9300+ class until new SoC that brings the price down like MTK fillogic did to wifi6

I have 3 of these got it for WiFi 7 but yeah doesn’t do 6ghz coz it’s not officially allowed to use the band in India. These are avg routers the mesh works with hardline backhaul. But it’s very difficult to give all ips and such in IPv6 mode in wan to 40-60 devices. I have too many iots it looses ips often and sometimes lan disconnects and reconnects. Got a 6 port 2.5gbe unmanaged switch which helped a bit. But am planning to building my own router just hoping to get a 2.5gbe intel pcie nic, with an i5 and 32gb ddr5 for promox and opnsense based router and use the be400 as access points for now

I love Huawei products. But the BE3 is rated at my current router's speed. I ended up ordering the TP-Link BE6500 and 2.5GB network card for my desktop. I'm sure it'll be better than the eero pro 6e my ISP provided with, whose range sucks compared to my older AXE5400.

TPLink BE6500 does: 5 GHz: 5764 Mbps (802.11be) 2.4 GHz: 688 Mbps (802.11be) 2.5Gbps WAN/LAN port. Seems like a no frills router with fast enough speeds.

I feel that expensive routers as a whole are a waste of money. I have a 2.5G wired network with a NAS. Had a TP Link Archer AC1800 router. I'd typically hit 500-700 mbps transfer speeds. I tried a handful of more expensive routers from Asus, tp link and Netgear. They barely made a difference. I ended up settling on the tp link BE6500 dual band. Does all I need it to do, and is plenty fast.

Personally just got the TP Link Archer BE6500 (WiFi 7) for $129.99 and have had zero issues these past few weeks. Covers my whole house (1300sq ft upstairs + basement).

I’m late af with this response but get the archer be6500. I’ve used both and the range on the be9300 is poor. The be6500 on the other hand, has excellent range on both the 2.4 and 5 ghz bands despite not having a 6ghz band.

Routers sold in the US are trash. I bought a TPLink BE6400 router for only $25 from China and had it shipped to the States.

I just (last week) migrated from 3x Eero Pro 2nd gen to 3x BE65 Pro (wireless backhaul). I used to have 200mb on the top level of my bungalow and now I get 920mb (max of what I get from my ISP). Crazy difference!

Netgear nighthawk for 6. Using tplink easy mesh for 7 and been happy so far

Tp-links newest WiFi 7 router is sick for the price.

Honestly, TP-Link seems to have the best value WiFi7 certified on the market. This ASUS router isn't even certified. I purchased mine for $170 on sale, only drawback is no 10G ports; they're all 2.5G (which isn't an issue for like 95% of consumers).

Stay far away from routers with fans, I returned a tp-link wifi 7 router over this exact issue. Sfp port was so hot it was unreal. Try to cool your place in summer with air conditioning, you don't want some fan blowing heat. Also moving parts is a bad idea for longevity. Also when I ran latency tests I was loosing O.4 to 0.8ms over fiber with the tp-link, my old router from 10 years ago never added that much latency, just to give you an idea of how bad fans are. This is not enterprise, cisco is enterprise and they use heatsinks not fans. If you want a decent router for home, Netgear rs700 uses heatsinks and has 1500 more sq ft of range than this thing, yep not 2000sq feet, but 3500sq feet, should get good reception in your backyard this summer. If you want enterprise you'll have to go cisco.
