    Works great for price

    I get good connection while maintaining high speeds on over 25 devices that are gaming or streaming video several times concurrently with no issues, my old house causes a bit of interference but this works better in that regard than several others I have tried also very low profile compared to other models with antenna sticking up

    Wow! It is worth it.

    I was on the fence about getting this, but my home has a lot of devices running through it. The WiFi 7 6mhz band allows my son to play games over WiFi w/a WIFI7 triband adapter at as close as your going to get to wired speed/latency. I have a new iPhone and it pulled 1.3 gbs while I was in my living room. Do I need that speed? Nope, but I have it. It also lets my apply my VPN at the router, it has excellent range and MLO. If you’re on the fence and wondering if this will get you higher speeds- it will. At least for me it has across all of my devices that count.

Questions & Answers
  • Can I hook up my ring cameras to it all around my house? My cameras are installed, and I have wifi, but the cameras can't seem to reach the wifi at all. Help please!

    As long as your ring cameras connect to your router via Wi-Fi you should have no problem connecting them to the router. If they are not able to connect, I would check the signal strength at the cameras' locations. Exterior walls can absorb a lot of the wireless signal from a router, and it is possible, depending on where your router is located, that the signal isn't strong enough for the camera to see it. If that is the case, consider adding a Range Extender to boost the signal.

  • Which TP link extender would work best with this router?

    We would recommend using one of our Wi-Fi 7 Range Extenders for best results, such as the RE655BE or RE450BE. Alternatively, you can use a second Archer BE9700 Wi-Fi router in an EasyMesh configuration as a satellite mesh node.

  • Is this the true be9700, or the not-so-equivalent be600 variant? And similar to another question here, what hardware version is BB offering here (v1.60 or v1)?

    The sub-version number notes the manufacturing facility the product was produced in. I am not sure what you mean regarding the BE9700 and BE600 models. But you have questions you can reach out to TP-Link support for assistance.
