Asked 2 years ago by TheOVOBreezy.

• A:Answer Hi! The Archer BE800 is equipped with the following Ethernet Port configuration: • 1× 10 Gbps WAN/LAN • 1× 10 Gbps SFP+/RJ45 Combo WAN/LAN • 4× 2.5 Gbps LAN The Combo port means that you can use one or the other (SFP or RJ45) at a time. They are effectively one WAN/LAN port, but with two physical interface options for using the same, "single" port.

Q: QuestionI currently have your 6E router. I am thinking about moving up to wifi7. Can I simply switch the connections from one device to the other or will I have to set up everything all over again? Thanks!

Asked 2 years ago by BigD.

• A:Answer Hi! The best way to ease the transition from the one router to the other would be to configure the new router with the same Wi-Fi settings (SSIDs, passwords, encryption, etc.) This way, your wireless devices will automatically detect and connect to the new router using the credentials from your previous network.

Q: QuestionIf I mesh two of these routers together, will the number of devices they can connect to double or will it still be 100 devices?

Asked 1 month ago by Phred.

• A:Answer Hi Phred, Support for total connected devices depends on various factors, including but not limited to network load, band saturation, and, in your case, the number of routers or access points. Since the Archer BE800 supports EasyMesh technology, expanding your network and connected devices has never been easier.

Q: QuestionCan I use this BE900 or BE800 and the main Router, then use a second BE800 or BE900 as a MESH WIFI connection using a hardwired backhaul?

Asked 2 years ago by Yanceymon.

• A:Answer Hi! Yes, you can use the EasyMesh feature to expand your network using the BE900 and BE800 over Wi-Fi. Please note that EasyMesh routers or extenders are planned to support Ethernet Backhaul, and some EasyMesh routers have already received support for it via a firmware upgrade. Please keep an eye on the official website and the router’s online updates for firmware updates when the new features are available. For the latest EasyMesh features and functionality, please ensure both routers have the latest firmware updates installed.

Q: QuestionWhat’s the square footage of range? Does it connect to other tp link extenders or mesh products? Thanks

Asked 2 years ago by Bob80.

• A:Answer Square foot coverage of any Wi-Fi router, regardless of brand, make, or model, will vary depending on your installation environment and be affected by factors including, but not limited to: - Placement of the router (central location is typically ideal) - Physical obstructions between the router and your devices (e.g. walls, etc.) - Distance between the router and your devices - Which Wi-Fi band you are connecting to (2.4GHz, 5GHz, 6GHz) As for whether you can use a TP-Link Wi-Fi extender to extend its signal - yes, TP-Link Wi-Fi extenders are universally compatible with Wi-Fi routers. However, you would ideally want to use a Wi-Fi extender with optimal performance specifications in relation to the performance specs of the router, for best results.
