This is an excellent product. I am able to go into the settings and turn off the 5g wifi and stay with 2.4GHz. The User interface is very easy to navigate. The only issue I had with it is the initial set up connection. I dont know if it was the router or motem, but trying to connect to the router to set up an account to turn on the wifi in order to have wifi was like two passing ships. I had to use the system reset button on the back to reboot the whole this several times before the TP link app saw the router. I tried using the Qr code underneath and it didnt help much. Once my phone did see the router everything else was easier to handle. One minor issue was the password setup, where you have a wifi password and an account password. Both say "account password" and it was hard to figure out which was which. When I needed to change the wifi password I had to dig through the settings to find it rather than the account password. Otherwise this has been worth the money and very reliable, 5 stars on everything else.

Hi Joshua,
Thank you for your review. Generally, if you run into trouble connecting to the Internet after installing the router, it may be that your modem's MAC (Media Access Control) binding needs to be released and renewed so it can provide an IP address (and Internet) to the Router. This can typically be done using the following steps:
1. Unplug the power from both your router and cable modem
2. Unplug the coax cable from the modem
3. Re-connect power ONLY to your cable modem
4. Wait until the cable modem is fully booted, then re-connect coax
5. Re-connect power to the router and connect it to the modem via Ethernet
This process should release and renew the MAC binding, so your modem can provide connectivity to the router. If you'd like assistance with any of these steps, please reach out to our support team using any of the resources included with the product, or from our official website, and we'll gladly have a Support Agent follow up with you directly.
Thank you,
TP-Link Systems Support

There was a young store associate that asked if I needed help and I told her what I was looking for she brought me immediately to this brand and asked me what I needed it for. I explained I had a small house with solar panels and everything was connected to a smart TV Google or about my own installation.. fast-forward to actually installing it and the app was pretty straightforward. It took a couple of tries, but overall wasn’t too difficult to get up and running the hard part was remembering all my passwords for my devices. The first day or two the TV was glitchy and we thought about returning it however, after another day or two, it actually worked itself out and now everything works seamlessly.

What I like, is it price and it proformance. Easy to setup, also like the included ethernet cable. What I dislike, how the admin dashboard is layed out in the advanced menu.

I am still looking for the on ramp for the information highway so it took me a little longer than it should but after I was able to install it all of my devices immediately began working at peak speed I am extremely happy with my purchase

Stopped working after 30 days. Should have know when the setup kept failing to take it back. Twice a week my WiFi would stop working and I would have to restart the router when I got home. I had a connection from the modem, but not WiFi. It just got worse from there with more failures and support giving me instructions how to install a beta firmware to solve the problem but nothing worked. I’ve asked for a refund, but I’m haven’t heard a reply Finally I just bought I new router.

The TP-Link - Archer BE 5000 has worked as promised. The setup was a bit confusing for my skill set, but I contacted Charlene through the TP-Link support channel, and we're running as we should. Charlene was very professional, patient, and knowledgeable with the setup for my many devices. Charlene is the kind of professional that demonstrates excellence in customer service. I'm very satisfied with my experience, and I would recommend the support channel with TP-Link, to anyone exactly not sure of the proper wireless/router setup.

I’m very happy with the TP-Link Archer BE5000. Setup was quick and easy with the Tether app, and the Wi-Fi connection has been fast, stable, and reliable throughout my home. I especially like the Wi-Fi 7 technology, strong coverage, and 2.5 Gbps ports, which make it a great choice for streaming, smart-home devices, and multiple devices connected at the same time. It offers excellent performance and features for the price, and I would definitely recommend it.

Funnily enough, I actually just used this in bridge mode so it was not really doing any routing for me. Aside from that, TP-Link is a great brand for networking and their Archer series always performs with great value. During the initial setup and for the first hour or so it was acting as the primary router, and during that time the signal was great. Coverage wise, it alone was not enough and that was the reason for the introduction of a mesh system / access points, but even over ~4200 sqft and 2 stories + a basement it did better than expected on its own.

Installed Octobrer 2025. It works good but,I have had consistant Wifi drops 1 -2 times a week and requires reset with a power cycle. I have tried the items in support but it still randomly drops Wifi. I have searche oher fixes and none have worked. Wired is not affected. Wifi speeds are lower than expected.

After our router failed, we needed a new one NOW. The TP-Link BE-5000 was very affordable, easy to set up, and has been functioning much better/faster than our previous router. For anyone looking for an affordable two-band router that will service an area up to 2500 sq.ft. this one will work well.

Works as intended. Good speed and wired connection.

The internet router works great really fast and easy to set up

Had a deco system for years, finally needed an upgrade and couldn't be happier. Has same coverage as mesh system I had and now I'm finally getting full wifi speeds to my devices. I only had for a couple weeks so it's early but hopefully will stay great.

Easy to install, this router definitely improved our streaming speed and capability. We had recently switched out our old cable boxed and updated to streaming and Xumo. Our old router wasn't hacking the extra streaming. The TP-Link-Archer BE5000 did the trick and now we can have multiple devices in use at one time with no problem.

This is the best router that I have ever purchased. It’s fast, efficient, and provides me with all of the information and data that I need. I would suggest to anyone that is reading this, purchase one.
