i am using tp links ge 800.

I have the tp link ge800 for $350 on sale Amazon, this guy is a beast. I came from asus btw. If you have any questions lemme know

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 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

Did you replace yours? Mine is loud too. Not sure if this is normal or not

BE550 had all 2.5gb ports and GE800 has both 2.5gb and 10gb ports. The GE800 is geared for gaming. I have both for sale if youre interested let me know.

I had nothing but positive experiences. So much so that I bought 2 other BE550s to put them in a hardwired easymesh setup. When I got the GE800 it was easy to add it as the main router and keep the other as mesh satellites. I was even able to add a vpn to the GE800 and spice upy gaming. My only complaint was the Tether app.

At this point, just go with what your gut tells you. I personally have good experience with TP-Link. As of now, I have the Deco X90, X95, X80-5G mesh routers, and the Archer BE900, GE800 router models. All have been working reliably.

1) I have Tplink Archer GE800 (BE19000) with Hikari Cross 10G and OCN - MapE connection Ipv4 over 6 protocol. The TPLink does have an English interface. I picked this over Buffalo because of it. 2) TPLink setup for the Ipv4 over 6 is super easy. It is just a drop down select option and login credentials provided by ISP. It takes about 2-5 minutes to fully establish connection. The japanlife wiki has a general overview guide for setting up and testing ipv6. You need to go to a specific website to verify if your connection is properly setup. 3) As you said, you get a unique Ipv6, but when you use the internet, you will almost always be using the shared ipv4 address on the internet. Hosting on a shared Ipv4 address does not work. I did find this from an old post: "Get a domain then set it up with Cloudflare and point it to your IPv6 address with port 80 (http). Cloudflare routing will make it accessible to IPv4 internet." Logically it makes sense. Treat cloudflare as a proxy for ipv6. Cloudflare is free (ish). So the only cost would be purchasing a domain (~1000-2000¥ a year).

I can vouch for the GE800 it’s fantastic mine has been a rock and ridiculously fast. If you want to do mesh with it the GE800 is easy mesh capable if you run that with 1 or 2 archer BE3600’s you would probably be completely covered. All are WiFi 7 systems the BE3600’s are 99.99 at Walmart

Archer GE800 is extremely quick and an excellent performer. It’s a tri band WiFi 7 gaming router https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/wifi-router/archer-ge800/

ge800 if your a gamer. the fan is not loud at all and most normal tasks should be louder than that fan. honestly the fan gives it better cooling anyways. the ge800 is basically in my opinion the same exact router as be800, just bigger and has gaming features. don’t use qos mode. unless you HAVE TOO. it’s very sloppy and they need a update fs but with it off i have amazing speeds. rgb is also just cool to have 😂😂😂 also if you have fiber connection the ge800 allows for sfp+ port. honestly all around i think its better

100%. you can add your nord VPN account to the router and from there they let you configure which devices you want the vpn on. and fiber optic is amazing for your situation. sometimes you could even lower your plan with fiber optic as long as you have the right hardware which these routers should be good since it is wifi 7. there’s also like maybe 5 phones that i even know of that have wifi 7 capabilities. the biggest thing with this mesh system is you get 160mhz 5ghz channels and also the 6ghz. but i’ve also come to find out unless your really congested on that 5ghz you really don’t even need it. i see no noticeable difference or latency improvement from wifi 6ghz and 5ghz. i have they ge800 gaming router. you can also look at stuff on here abt the be10000 system. people honestly like it a lot and i think it’s supposed to a competitor to some mesh system.

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 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

what’s your budget? depending on your budget you can get certain stuff. if you really want to get a gig wirelessly go for any wifi 6 router that has access to 160mhz channels so it can send more data. depending on your price point it might be a good idea to buy a wifi 7 router. o have. spectrum gig and i use the tp link ge800 which is amazing and does provide very low latency for gaming and calls. it does also provide my full 1,100 mbps wirelessly which is very nice. the be800 is very similar just not gamer oriented and that’s on a 50% sale on amazon rn. but its still 350$

tp link stuff is good. tp link als has gaming router that’s are very nice a well and are on sale as i type this out. every other options are good. or i is very nice but expensive. same as asus. tp link is very budget friendly and user friendly. had my ge800 for almost a year now and it works flawlessly with spectrum’s internet.

I got the TP link that looks like a little TIE fighter... Problem is it wakes me up every night when I hear a flying around in the living room

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.

I hear you,I actually had to change the smart plug from kasa to Lutron to avoid resets for my solar system. Lutron outdoor plug works flawlessly even though I use it inside. Currently though I am trying to avoid using high latency cat cable from 10gb QNAP switch in the basement. It's the only tri-band wifi 7 router I can just fiber to, so I can use short cat8 out to ps5, tv from there avoiding latency of cat cable on the long run. I'll give tp-link ge800 a chance in access point mode as it's beat out all other wifi 7 routers in performance and I can avoid using cat cable with it.

Stupid loud. I think mine is faulty. No way it could be making this much noise normally.

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. [https://www.reddit.com/r/ASUS/comments/1hpejh8/warning\_for\_rtbe92u/](https://www.reddit.com/r/ASUS/comments/1hpejh8/warning_for_rtbe92u/)

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.

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).
