Customer Ratings & Reviews

Looking forward to using this, have not opened, but reviews were great.

Adding this system to our home has made our WiFi connection better & faster.

I keep losing internet connection with this router. I would not recommend purchasing this router. I regret not returning it before the designated window for returns. Keeps losing Wi-Fi signal to my home security, tv and phone.

Seems to be working well as we just started using it.

Had some issues with a software update waiting on a new software update. Overall great product and was able to price match. Very future proof

It's great! It makes our wifi so much faster and more reliable.

Works great 90% of time but am not able to keep it from dropping signal intermittently. Creates problems when streaming music or watching movies via WiFi.

even though this is new expensive technology this is the new standard for wifi

They have buffering issues and whole system locking intermittently.

This is an excellent product and a decent price. I've always been a fan of Tp-link products.

Not an easy plug-and-play. Several devices that were on the previous router will not connect even after enabling the 2.4G mode.

Good product that supports Wi-Fi 7 and supports 10 Gig transmission.

That is an amazing product. It works well for a house with of 3 floors.

When they work, they’re great. But having to reboot the network almost every day to get stable internet is absurd. Save your money and go with something else.

Was really looking forward to this, but had multiple problems. Could not install without Tech Support (Never a good thing). System worked great for about 24 hours, then got an update which locked out all of my older devices. I had set security to “WPA2”, a good level, but after update, system only uses WPA3, which is NOT backward-compatible.

5 GB port + WiFi 7. A great combo to future proof

This mesh system claims to support 200 devices, but it bogged down at just over 100. And these were smart devices that don't stream or transfer data. This router kept disconnecting, restarting, over and over. And TPlink customer support? That's laughable. Takes 3 to 5 days to get a reply, and when i did, it was obvious it was read by AI chatbot, because it picked and chose words that it could define and provided completely unhelpful advice.

The Deco BE65 Pro is easy to setup provided fast connectivity! Design I think it has a cool look to it. There are vents inset in on the top and sort of an embossed, and very large, "7" from top to bottom that make it more interesting to look at than just a white cylinder. The round vertical cylinders have two 2.5 Gb ports, one 5 Gb port, and one Type A USB port. The power cord plugs in just below the data ports. Opposite of the ports and at the bottom of the cylinder there's one indicator LED. All three units are identical so any one can be used as the "main" unit and the others have the same port available. Setup Was easy using their "Deco" smartphone app and watching the LED on each unit as you set it up. Anyone could set this up and be up and running pretty quickly. I was impressed when I looked at the setting afterward and realized it setup a subnet larger than a class C by default. I was able to set the IP address of the main unit easily as well as the DNS servers I wanted the built-in DHCP server to hand out. By default all bands are enabled, though it has options or separate bands or IoT or guest networks for instance. Each of the three units needed to be updated once they were setup. I updated them one at a time as I set them up but it's designed to update them automatically as needed over night. You can provide a window of time when it will update and restart them when needed. Features While this Deco BE11000 seems designed towards easy home use, I thought it worked very well and even has some more advanced features. - USB Data sharing You can plug a flash drive into the USB port of one or more of the units and it will act as a DLNA media server. I was able to stream MP3s from a flash drive using this and it worked well! It was easy to setup too. It can also be used for FTP, Network Neighborhood, or an Apple Time Machine backup device - Multi-Link Operation This will use more than one connection between the access points to improve performance, for instance 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands in parallel - IoT network option You can setup an Internet of Things network for devices like appliances that don't need a lot of bandwidth. This separates them from the rest of your network for security reason and can also let you run it at 2.4 GHz when the rest of your network is running at 5 GHz or 6 GHz. - There's a network optimization setting that tries to find the best way to configure your network (probably adjusts channels and maybe frequency ranges that are used). I didn't mess with it much but I ran it a few times once I had the APs setup and then when I changed their positions. It's a simple one touch option - Control WiFi Backhaul I was able to set this to 2.4 GHz. That worked best for my environment because of a metal wall two of the APs need to go through to mesh to each other. I still have the one most of my computers are on the most connected to a wired connection and all three still use 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or 6 GHz WiFi - Beamforming (enabled by default) - Fast Roaming (disabled by default) - Device isolation - Parental Controls This is easy to setup and lets you create a profile for each child, block content, monitor usage, set hours when internet access is allowed, force a block at anytime and review history. There are advanced features here that can be enabled for a subscription. Web Interface It has a web interface but it's very basic, mostly to see status, upgrade, reboot, or view logs. The web interface is missing most settings and features so you will need to use the app for this. Performance Wireless signal strength is great and speed has been great as well. I do have one connection that goes through a metal wall and that connection isn't as good as the others but it's still functional. As mentioned above it supports 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands for high performance. I got over 600 down and about 900 up on WiFi speed tests with my synchronis 1 GB fiber internet connection (which is great - It's hard to get numbers that match the actual speed). I didn't have any problems with a tablet, phones, Chromebooks, or Windows laptops. Connections worked very well. I was using two devices wired with it and had no problem there either. Summary This was very easy to setup and it works great! The performance is excellent and without any messing around I think it would be perfect for most people in most houses. I was going outside our house to a detached garage and going through a metal wall to do that and cinder block seemed to cause issues. Because of that I wanted to do a few things I couldn't. 1. Set the Backhaul (the link) between two of the three APs to 2.4 GHz (for better building penetration). I set all three to use a 2.4 GHz backhaul instead and that's ok for this situation because of the location of my Main AP that is wired. 2. I could not set only one AP to 2.4 GHz only. I can make a separate 2.4 GHz network but I didn't want to do that. I can set all three to be 2.4 GHz only but I didn't want to do that either. Oh well, it's working pretty well. Also, I have a static IP address for my printer and found that I cannot set an exclusion in the DHCP server, only a reservation. Those functions are similar but the one does not replace the other. There are a few ways to work around this but it seems it would be a very simple feature for them to add in an update so hopefully they will. Overall though, this is a feature rich WiFi Mesh system that works very well! Though if you need a good web interface, I would not recommend this. The app is great though. I had to give four stars instead of five due to the lack of IP Exclusions in the DHCP server, and the fact that the web interface can't do most of what the app can. I'm not too bothered by the 2.4 GHz settings I couldn't set. I think it does a pretty good job of managing all of that automatically. For most people in most homes none of these things will matter.

Very easy to setup. Performance lower than expected but good.

This Tri-band Whole Home Mesh system is super fast. The 3 included Deco BE65 Pro units provide up to 7600 square feet of home coverage, although this will depend on the configuration of your house and any interferences in-between the units that may be present. The AI-driven mesh technology keeps you connected seamlessly from room to room as you move around with your mobile devices. I connected these units to my existing Deco network that I have always been very happy with. The initial Deco set-up to my Internet service was really easy with the tp-link app. Adding these units was as easy as plugging them in and clicking a button on my phone. These units have completely removed any dead spots I had in my house and have extended strong coverage into my garage and most of my yard even. I have a 3800 square feet house that had always had a dead corner near our entryway that is at the other end of the house from the router. Not anymore. My yard is an acre, and I can get WiFi signal in the majority of it. The system provides encrypted security built-in to the network. The app allows parental controls to be set up easily if needed. I have had multiple devices connected at the same time with streaming, gaming, more streaming, and other less-demanding draws on the signal and have noticed no lag or buffering. We are fortunate to have (usually) good Internet service in our area (>1gbps). This system is backwards compatible with all WiFi generations and devices. This system should provide practically any home with fast, reliable, and strong WiFi coverage. I would highly recommend.
