I got a TP Link Archer Be9300 and I wasn't expecting it to be so good. I'm at another level.

**MLO works fine, there was a dif'c between V1 & V2 of these, V1 only supported 5 & 6GHz** **Advanced** \> **Wireless** \> **Wireless Settings** Scroll down to find the **MLO Network** section and toggle it to **Enabled** Set a **distinctive Network Name (SSID)** Select the bands you want to use (on the **BE550 V1**, this is typically **5GHz + 6GHz**)

In V1 or V2? I haven't had any issues :) I crank the bandwidth up in ALVR without issue as well & 2 floors up, speedtests give me full speed.

Get the BE9300 router from TP link, use the 5GHz band for your home devices, and use the 6GHz network for you VR. Be in line of sight of the router and you should have a good time, going through walls on VR will very likely cause frame drops and other issues

You can totally get away with 1 router. How I have it set up, is I have a 5HGz router (nighthawk) controlling all my home WiFi needs. Off the back of that router, I have a Ethernet cable going to another router (my BE9300 TP link) and that’s in my room. My BE9300 broadcast its own WiFi 6GHz network, aka my dedicated VR network that nothing else is on it. A common misconception is that streaming VR to your headset uses your internet connection. This is completely false. It just used the WiFi band AS its connection to your headset uses set. This is how you can play WiFi with no internet on standalone games completed disconnected from the web. What can cause issues is when multiple devices are fighting for the connection and it can intermittently interrupt the VR connection from time to time making to jarring. When I used my 5GHz network on my nighthawk there was noticeable hitches and high latency issues at times. Ever since I swapped to my 6GHz BE9300 it’s been flawless. So your set up would be like this: Modem > Router (for home WiFi) > ethernet to VR router > VR router Ethernet to PC If you want to try without a dedicated VR router it’s this: Modem > Router > Ethernet to PC It’s pretty simple and isn’t complicated as people make it out to be. I’d recommend watching this if you’re interested in the VR router setup. But if it’s in the same room that you’ll be gaming on, you can probably get away with a router that just does triband (2.4,5,6GHz) networks https://youtu.be/9Ugy8ZC26tE?si=YojtyVEOvNc--3GB

I have a BE550/9300 and it is stellar with my Comcast 2Gbps plan and normally gets me around 2.3Gbps to my end-points.
