TP-Link has been accused of having the ability to spy on customers, like Yealink and other Chinese manufacturers. Since then they have become TP-Link USA and I haven't seen that accusation in years. You really can't beat the fact you can get a WiFi 7 quad-band router with 2.5G uplink and LAN ports for $100 at most Walmarts. It's honestly pretty tough to find a better deal for that money.
Recently got the TP Link Deco BE16000 for my brick house and I've been very pleased and impressed with it this far. All of my security cameras are wifi, lots of iot devices, streaming and gaming with no issues or dead zones.
Easy solution is a out of the box mesh system. Im running the wifi 7 deco system with no issues in my 1900 built house. If we plan on staying long term, I will 100% run Ethernet across the house, but that will require a ton of chopping stuff up.
I been using from Tp Link - Deco. It’s for Wi-Fi 7..
I got the Deco Wi-Fi 7 mesh and usually see 800+ on my devices except for devices that are only using the wireless backhaul. I’ve been very happy with it. Believe it is app only admin though. In my head, the wireless back haul is only done on 2.4 GHz so it would be limited throughput regardless of vendor. I think Unify is probably the leader for this , Orbi is probably a close second. Unless you want to get slightly complicated and use Fortinet.
r/HomeNetworking best is to use ethernet cables, worth getting some installed next best is wifi mesh, ive used and recommended tplink deco wifi 6E/7.. stable and decent speeds and for multiple levels.
better than mesh is to use ethernet cable with AP. mesh wise tplink deco are easy and quick to setup.
u didnt say if there are ethernet or coax cables... then get something cheap like tplink deco which can be used as a single AP or mesh later down the track and if there are no cables.
