BE25 is the best option for the budget because of the 2.5G ethernet port and WIFI 7. But the range is worse than the X60 which is also a good option because of the Gigabit Ports and long range. If you have a small apartment then, the BE25 is the best option. Also you can just set your BE25 Channel Width to 80 or 160 if you want more range for the BE25.

(1)Yes, it does. But it is slower than the BE25 2.5 Gigabit Ports. (2)Because of the 4x4 antennas in the X60 it has a better range and penetration. Even 60ft is no problem of X60 but the BE25 has 2/4 bars if 50 ft away.

some of these replies are so dumb. most people do not want to punch holes in their wall and run cable. yea, it’s optimal, we know. chill out. i have a tp-link deco mesh system and love it. i would recommend your choice of be5000.

2 x be25 tplink decos for 190$. Try them with a wireless backhaul before spending money on running cables.

2 x be25 deco units will cover most homes and are future proofed with wifi 7 and 2.5gbs ports... for under 150 bucks on amazon.

I've had great success with deco mesh systems. I personally have been using them for about 8 years, currently using the be63's which are incredible. But I've installed several setups in friends and family's houses and they're a breeze to install, powerful, and are incredibly reliable. Not very sure why you'd want to spend more

Superloop has been great for me. I am on the 750/50 plan and speed and latency has been great at all times. I have the TP-Link Deco BE25 home mesh system with a few switches and that has been pretty good. If you want to try them out, you can try my code [https://www.superloop.com/internet/nbn/?referral\_code=SLC-1288246](https://www.superloop.com/internet/nbn/?referral_code=SLC-1288246) SLC-1288246

I'm using Deco BE5000, it's pretty solid. It lacks the 6 GHz band that fancier options have, but other than that I have no complaints. Price is right, especially if you find it on sale as I did.

Whatever you decide it is important to factor in the number of connections your setup will support. I switched to the TP Link because my previous WiFi system only supported 32 connections. the TP Link supports 150. I have 4Br/3Ba house with basement. Once I started adding just smart bulbs I quickly surpassed 32. Add on to that smart plugs, switches, a garage door opener, TV's, laptops, cell phones, etc.... If the WiFi system can't continually hold these connections stable then your device start to "act funny".
