High priority functions and applications receive maximum network performance, while low priority traffic receives minimum performance.)
- Band Technology: Tri (Refers to the number of frequency bands used to wirelessly transmit an internet signal. For example, dual-band devices may use one 2.4 and one 5 GHz band, while tri-band devices may use one 2.4 and two 5 GHz bands. Multiple bands also provide more flexibility for designating connected devices to specific band use.)
- Ethernet Standard: 10/100/1000/10000 (Each standard is a variation of the IEEE 802.3 set of computer networking technologies known as Ethernet. New versions evolved to include higher bandwidth, different physical media, and other new and improved features. Standards are often denoted by speeds (in Megabits per second). For example, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
- Number Of Connected Devices: 200
- Number of Antennas: 7
- Frequency Band: 6.0 GHz, 5.0 GHz, 2.4 GHz (Bands may be grouped into categories such as low- and high-band VHF (Very High Frequency), low- and high-band UHF (Ultra High Frequency), or certain frequency channels (measured in MHz or GHz). Generally, higher frequencies transmit information faster but have shorter range than lower frequencies.)
- Wireless Networking Standard: Wi-Fi 7 (The wireless networking standard used by the device. Each iteration of the standard developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance corresponds to an existing IEEE 802.11 protocol; for example, standard 802.11ac (or AC) is termed Wi-Fi 5. Refers specifically to the standard the device is designed to use, but ultimately determines product interoperability and backward compatibility including previous versions.)
- Wireless Standard: BE, AX, AC, N (The wireless networking protocol used by the device. Each iteration of the protocol is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association.

- Number of 2.4Ghz Streams: 2 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. Because the 2.4 GHz band is used to transmit wireless signals to a wide variety of devices, there is often high amounts of traffic on that stream. But with multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 2.4 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a desktop computer, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that use more data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 5.0Ghz Streams: 3 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. The 5.0 GHz band provides high speed, short-range data transmission and typically has less traffic than the 2.4 GHz band. With multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 5.0 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a streaming media player, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that need less data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 6.0Ghz Streams: 3
- Wi-Fi Mesh System: true (A single wireless network consisting of a main router (connected directly to a modem) that connects to a series of satellite modules or nodes placed around the home.

Exceptional good router with 10GB Ethernet
Easy to setup, keep away from floors for best signal strength like all other WiFi routers, and avoid sending signals going through brick walls. 14000gbit/s is fairly theoretical, I get 6-8gbit/s TCP und 9 on UCP with my Mac Studio connected to another unit on 10gbit/s Ethernet. No fan and noiseless operation is great. I measured power consumption of about 10W per unit which is also acceptable. The bandwidth drops significantly when QoS is enabled, so I’ll leave it off.

Works Great! Easy to Set Up.
Our Orbi died after five years. I bought this to cover a 3,400 s.f. two-story house. It was easy to set up, and the phone app gave clear instructions throughout the process. We are enjoying fast WiFi throughout the house. Although we use the LAN for our TVs, we use WiFi for several laptops or tablets, security cameras, Smart devices, and a couple of Kindle readers. After experimenting to find the optimal locations for the two satellites, the only problem I had was reaching the control panel for the solar energy system in the garage. That was probably due to large metal beams in between the mesh router and the control panel. It was easy to add a fourth mesh router at a location that was line of sight to both the primary router and the solar control panel.

Review of TP-Link Deco BE68 WiFI 7 BE1400 At glance: 1. 3 Pack, Mesh WiFi 7 System, and Tri-Band (6GHz, 5GHz, 2.4GHz) 2. Includes latest 6GHz WiFI Band as of 04/30/2025 3. Each router has 1 Wan/Lan Port 10Gbps, 2 Ports 2.5Gbps, 1 USB 3.0 4. Up to 14 Gbps WiFi Speed 5. 8,100 sq ft 6. Up to 200 connected devices. 7. Backward compatible, BE, AX, AC, N 8. Multi-Link Operation (ML) support 9. 320 Mhz Bandwidth Addition to the above listed specifications, on installation and setup aspect the process is straightforward. For non technical and common users, it is a matter of plugin one of router’s ethernet cable from the cable modem or exterior facing main connector. Then placing the additional two depending on the area of need. In between, it requires to have the TP-Link Deco application to setup the router, but as soon as each router is powered on after the main first one, it automatically would detect them. Specific note for installation on hardware aspect: If the second and third router are connected via ethernet cable, which ethernet itself is connected from the cable modem’s additional port, the TP-Link Deco will connect the router each other via Wireless Mode as main connection. By connecting directly to the main TP-Link Deco, then it will recognize as main connection via ethernet. From the application, TP-Link Deco shows easy to understand interface and help to navigate through issues variety of options and control. Ih the main screen as the application is opened, it shows all the router with name and if it is connected, the speed, and sort of status message “Everything looks good”, The application offers controls close to professional usage. Has option to Device Isolation, Wi-Fi Access control, add Camera Control although require additional steps based on what ioT devices have installed, then separate control for iOT itself. Then for instance, tapping each of router icon, it will show all the device names connected to it, And this repeat as view each router. And in the list will show the same device I am looking at it and if it is connected to which router’s, In respect to the signal across the home, it is fairly good. It has been stable across the home size of 2800, and outside as walk away a bit, the signal has maintained strong. The only thing is sporadically noticed two things: 1. Devices connection dropping off but after looking at it several time, it looked like disconnect - connect back issue that first was not noticeable without paying attention. 2. The signal icon time to time appears inconsistent between the connected device and signal shown in the TP-Link Deco application. For instance, from TP-Link Deco app would see medium level of signal to the connected device. But from the connected device showing Strong. What most I liked: 1. Signal coverage. Despite of some little downside between corners and during the usage, it is delivering stable and good coverage through the house. 2 Status Dashboard of connected router. It shows in the node tree connectivity icon with animated connection between main and rest of router. 3. Able to tap the icon of router and see all the connected devices in clean way. 4. Easy way to change router as Main. By just selecting one of them, the application offer the option to choose as main. What I wish it does better: 1. It doesn’t come with ethernet cable for 10Gbps. Considering it is made for 10 Gbps capability, didn’t make sense. 2. More ports 2.5Gbps at least for the main. Due to its limitation, can’t place in a same spot for instance NAS Hardrives. 3. Light. It is located at the bottom and edge of the router. It is very slight lighting and hard to notice. Would be more effective on the top or front upper part of the body. 4. The button WPS is located at the rear side, making it non practical. 5. Ethernet ports doesn’t have light indicator as would see in other devices that include it to tell if ethernet is connected and passing data through. 6. Doesn’t have power on/off. 7. Application’s connected icons in the dashboard. As soon as tap on one of router icon, it open second screen of the same connected node information. It is preferred that upon tap first time it takes directly to the router individual information. 8. Parental Control is paid service, and doest offer out of box mode to perform different settings as parent. 9. Security monitoring and VPN as being paid service require additional login setting, moreover the VPN service is through recommended third party main. To conclude, it is not perfect 100%, but close to for users that are not techncial and doesn't need for professional usage. It is stable and includes decent control for everyday usage.
