TP-Link - Archer BE805

I do have the archer be19000. Only thing that is not so good is the wifi signal. Not really strong and had to get another tp link repeater for 3000¥ and now it's linked through easymesh. After that it worked great. I got it because of the 2x 10G Ethernet ports. None of the issues mentioned in Amazon here so far. I keep the firmware up to date and even use the VPN Host function to remotely access my stuff when I'm outside.

Routers never last more than 2y for me, so I always buy from Costco. I have always gone with Netgear when they carried them, due to good ratings on SmallNetBuilder. All my Netgears are dead, so I got a TPLink BE805 last month as it was the only Wifi7 one they had. I just ordered this Asus to try. I like the 2.5G ports for my NAS, but I wish it had 5 or six, not 3. I hope Costco switch from TPLink to Asus.

Have been researching WiFi 7 Routers now for months in an attempt to replace my Deco W7200 (which is starting to struggle with the number of devices I have running). I have watched 1,000 you tube videos, read 3,000 reviews, studied about 4,000 posts on reddit, etc., etc. and after extensive research this is what I have learned: When it comes to affordable mesh systems the Deco BE63 sucks or is awesome, the Orbi 770 sucks or is awesome, and the Asus BT6/BT8 either sucks or are awesome. Then we have stand alone routers: the TP-Link BE800 and BE805 both suck or are both awesome, the Asus RT-BE92U sucks or is awesome, and the Netgear RS600/RS700 either sucks or is awesome. All of them seem to suck more unless they are awesome, then they seem to suck less. All their firmware sucks or is just fine and all of them have constant drops or they don't. You have to have triband or they will suck, unless you go dual band in which case they will suck. Or it's possible to have awesome triband or awesome dual band, albeit unlikely. There is also Eero 7, pro, or max, or super max, which are all awesome but also all suck because they don't have MAC cloning which is a must with my ISP. Of course they may also suck in generally depending on who you ask. Or I could sell a kidney and stop paying my bills for 3 months and turn my house into some kind of Ubiquity super network which will definitely either suck or be awesome. Starting to think I should just throw a dart in Best Buy or Costco and buy whatever it hits. Or just keep the W7200 and start throwing away IOT devices.

I just picked up the Asus gt 98 pro it's an excellent router . It resolved my dead zones entirely . Ya it's over kill and expensive but it helped me I had a be1900 tp link and it just wasn't strong enough required weekly reboots with drops . With the quad band there are no drops and it's much better than the tri band . I mean mainly my basement and top floors had issues and the Asus can penetrate the walls better in my experience.

I just got a TP Link be19000, seems to match what you want. 2x10gb (one or both can be LAN if you have spf), 4x2.5gb, meshable, wifi 7. 

People are disappointed with wifi 7 are disappointed because TP link rushed out devices that were not ready for market, and have a high hardware failure rate. All the other manufacturers rushed to compete, and reliability and features are lacking. I tried a wifi router from TP Link, Netgear, and Asus. They were all garbage in one way another. The TP Link (BE19000) was great until it just died, couldn't hold a signal after 2 months. The Netgear(RS600 and rest of RS line) forces you into a paid DNS service if you want to run a VPN on it, the Asus RT-BE92U has a horrendous UI and firmware that crashed it daily as well as micro connection drops regularly.

I ended up switching the BE15000 out for the BE19000 (on sale from Costco for less than the BE15000). The 15k just wasn’t providing thorough WiFi coverage. I also found that the BE19k has restart and firmware scheduling built-in, so it does those jobs in the wee hours of the morning so it’s fresh as a daisy and ready for work when I get up. I also added a “AX5400 WiFi 6 Range Extender” in our detached garage so we now get a full 3-bars of coverage everywhere. It’s been trouble-free since I scheduled the early morning reboots.

I have mine in passthru with a TP-Link Archer WiFi-7 router. No issues.

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

What speed is your fiber plan? I have a wifi 7 tp link that I’ve been using for over a year now. Solid router with no issues. The software to control isn’t amazing but if you don’t have a complicated setup- it would serve you just fine. Although I do suspect you can get a better price if you hunt around. Netgear is also a solid brand.
