"I can basically always trust my X40 to finish a midnight cleaning session in the dark and wake up to find it sitting in its dock and have clean floors in the morning."


"I think its hands down the best all around option right now, especially once you hook it up to the water line and drain, i run it daily in our house and we got rid of our cleaning help because of it."


"significantly worse object avoidance than than the Dreame x40 and L40 ... The best feature of the L40/X40/p10 pro ultra is that they have class leading object avoidance so you don't have to pick up your cat's toys or prep your house every time you want to run the robot meaning you can run it on a daily schedule which will keep your house cleaner. ... I run my X40s daily and they never get stuck on cables, cat toys and other random junk that ends up on the floor."

"Netgear Orbi which I think is very easy to setup and use. ... Orbi is more beginner friendly and easier to setup up. ... With Orbi it’s just one thing to plug in and it just works. I am literally up and running in 10 minutes. ... I’ve done three Orbi installations in the past year and never had any problems."


"the air75 was super easy to hook up to the radio pocket and beta flight is such a breeze to navigate, I got everything connected and setup in about 30mins to an hour."


"70 bucks plug and play. As easy as it gets."

"I highly recommend the TP-LINK BE3600 WiFi 7 router. It is sub $100 and it totally kicks ass."


"If you’d rather have 6 GHz (great for newer phones/laptops) and don’t need 10 GbE, consider the TP-Link Archer BE550, which is frequently around $199 and tested well for budget Wi-Fi 7. ... TP-Link BE550: True tri-band with 6 GHz around $199–$229 and strong test results—great budget “next-gen” pick."


"Extra discounts on amazon so I got it to $80 and thought the price for the system was unbeatable."

"but with it off i have amazing speeds."


"The eero’s give me WiFi speeds of at least 1600 Mbps everywhere"


"Agreed, the final hardware version is excellent in performance. I even get the same wireless speeds as with the Max 7 (1600-1900 Mbps up and down) which is quite impressive."

"I returned the spectrum wifi7 router because there was absolutely no way to get 2 of my smart outlets to connect to it."


"a bit soon after we started having another issue where videos and games started buffering/lagging a ton on the daily."


"I also just remembered I have a lot of cameras and bulbs that are exclusively 2.4Ghz. I'm having trouble getting them connected since there is no separation of networks. ... This upgrade may have been a mistake."

"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."


"i have a ge800 from tp link and i use the ax21 from tp link as a router ethernet back hall and i get better ping and latency (not overall speed) but its still better than the ge800 where speeds next to that router are above i gig but ping is 20 while next to the ax21 its 11"


"i see no noticeable difference or latency improvement from wifi 6ghz and 5ghz."

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.

Deco works really well with extending range. Actually better than a range extender, as Mesh systems are designed from the ground up to work with each other in the system. I had a Ge800 tied to a be550 and a WiFi 7 range extender. Super good stuff right? But it's half ass "patched up" jerky jerky mesh was no match to a Deco. Deco was snappier, more reliable, and longer range.

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 tried a archer ge800 wifi 7 it struggled with wifi 6/6e devices even on the mlo band, its like they didn't put that much effort into the 2.4 and 5ghz band i even connected to them separately. if you had wifi 7 devices it would have been a great router. Problem was I wasn't getting the max speeds on those bands and it kept dropping to lower Mbps
