TP-Link - Archer BE19000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router - Black

Honestly, this is the best dang router. I had just upgraded my Internet speed and the router that my ISP gave me was definitely going to suffice, but my WiFi Speeds were terrible. I tried the 11000pro from TP link and while it was enough to handle having everyone over for the holidays, I was still getting sub par WiFi Speeds and signal wasn’t the greatest pay my front door. I thought to myself, do I really need such an expensive router? Well, Best Buy offered to price match with a competitor which helped me make the decision. I’ve had this router now for about two months and I still don’t know how I went this long without one. It’s Future proof and and signal strength is fantastic. I get strong signal at my neighbors house, which is across the street. Features are super easy to program and the interface is very user friendly. This makes for an all in all excellent user experience and I do not regret it for one sec. What’s not to love about strong WiFi signal and (4)-2.5gb ports and the additional 10gb port for future expansion. If you’re reading this sentence, Just buy it… 10/10

I recently upgraded to Xfinity’s gigabyte X2 internet package, which gives you 2000 mbps on download and up to 200 mbps on upload. To take advantage of the high speeds, I decided to upgrade both my modem and router. I purchased this TP-Link BE800 router and the Arris Surfboard S33. When I hooked everything up, my download speeds were capped around 1200 mbps and upload speed around 41 mbps. After reading multiple reviews online through Xfinity’s community forum, and other reviews, basically I found out I needed to upgrade to a modem to get the higher upload speed, so I purchased the Netgear CM3000, since the Arris S34 isn’t available yet. After hooking up the Netgear modem, my upload speed was still capped at 41 mbps, so I chatted with Xfinity technical support. During the chat, the Xfinity tech updated my firmware on my modem, and my download speed increased to 1500 mbps and my upload speed increased from 41 mbps to around 360 mbps! Basically, not only do you need this modem to get the high upload speed, you also need to have Xfinity update your modem on their end. All in all, it was definitely worth the extra time and money to upgrade since I now can take full advantage of my high Internet speeds! Plus, this router was on sale and is equipped with WiFi 7 so I’m prepared for future devices…highly recommend!

I get over 2.3gig speeds wired and wireless. The range is great. I like the fact that i can modify the settings using both the App and browser. They have a pretty robust menu system, i can add a VPN service, SSD and share it in my network. I got it on sale for $100 dollars cheaper and i totally recommend it!

It’s a good router. There are some kinks that need to be worked out when it comes to EasyMesh and plenty of other things. Coming from ASUS, it doesn’t provide you nearly as much control over certain settings. Considering I got it on a deal and price matched, I’m happy. The main difficulty is waiting for more WiFi 7 clients pop on the scene to truly see what it can do.

Once you go through and change the default settings and update it there arent any problems i have gigabit cable internet and only lost about 20 megabits over wifi. That said, there were some oddities with settings like the mlo network needing to be set up with 5+6ghz first then add the 2 4 in order to make the dynamic connection work with different aecurity aettings and it Its just not worth the price. If you want easy setup use and amazon eeros, if you want invetwen get a nighthawk if you want pro settings get an asus. If you want somthing somewhat futureproof and wothout breajable external antennas and can afford it get this. For most people there are better options. The emojis are cute though.
