Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had set up a TP-Link Deco system for my parents a few years ago and was a fan at how easily it allowed for a wired backhaul connection which was important for their house. It's worked flawlessly ever since so when it was time to upgrade my own system (we've had our current tri-band mesh system for over 5 years so it was time), I had the Deco system at the top of my list. We have 500/500 Fiber Internet and frequently watch 4K HDR shows via streaming so we demand the best of the best from our routers. I knew I wanted a three unit mesh system that included the latest WiFi Standard 7 as well as all currently available transmissions (2.4, 5, & 6 ghz). This system had all of that and has been excellent. Overview Setup was overall a breeze, though I did have a hiccup with initially connecting my phone to the "main" Deco unit inside the Deco app. It kept saying it couldn't connect to the Deco's Wifi even though I had manually gone in and connected it and my phone was definitely connected. It just took some persistence and trying it over and over a few times. It was annoying, but a small inconvenience and it must've just been a glitch because eventually it did connect properly and after that setting up everything else including the two satellites was a breeze inside the app. (Keep in mind there are NO instructions for setting these up because you have to use the Deco app and the Deco app will step you through everything.) Once set up, these have worked great. I have all three frequencies setup with the same name/SSID and devices are correctly connecting to the best one for them. My iPhone 15 Pro Max generally connects to the 6ghz for the fastest speed which is awesome. My entire house and yard is now covered with super strong signals and fast Wifi. Our house is only 1400 sq ft so I have two routers in there - the third is in our garage which is next to our pool and helps cover the backyard pool area. We have just under 100 devices connected as we use a lot of smart devices that are always connected and everything connected fine and haven't had any issues. I couldn't be more pleased with how these are working. It's really taken our WiFi system to the next level. PROS - Fairly Affordable for the Quality/Specs (when compared to the other top brands of equal specs/ratings I would consider) - Excellent WiFi on all 3 bands - 2.4, 5, & 6 Ghz - Supports the latest WiFi 7 protocol - Brilliant App with easy to use User Interface that makes setting things up and monitoring everything simple - Tri-Band Connection between main router and satellites works great to ensure fast WiFi everywhere in our house/yard - Routers are small and look nice - Everything connects and stays connected and gets great speeds CONS - Bit of glitch in initial setup where the app couldn't recognize that my phone was connected to the Router - Main router will only have 2 available ethernet connections for hardlining (but easily & inexpensively fixed by connecting a switch). Satellites will have 3 available. If you're looking for one of the best systems you can get, that is fairly easy to set up with all the options you could want in a mesh router system, a great app with intuitive user interface, and excellent functionality, then I would definitely recommend this TP-Link Deco system!

The TP-Link Deco BE65 Pro has been a big upgrade for my home network. Setup was simple with the app and only took a few minutes. The Wi-Fi 7 speeds are seriously fast, and I can stream, game, and work from anywhere in the house without drops. The coverage is solid all the way to the back yard, and the two 5-gig ports give me plenty of room for high-speed wired connections. It looks clean and modern too, so I do not mind having the units out in the open. Reliable, fast, and easy to use.

This is my first ever setup of a mesh network. I've been wanting to get one for years now because of the benefits they bring versus a single router or hard to setup extenders. This system is awesome! The only documentation that came with the setup is a small Quick Installation Guide that is basically a QR code to download the app that will then walk you through setting up the system. The setup was fairly straight-forward, but I did find myself a little overwhelmed in a couple spots. There are some questions about your ISP that I wasn't sure about and never had to worry about with previous routers, but thankfully the defaults worked! After getting through the initial setup of the primary unit to my internet connection, it could not find the internet. I went into the app and rebooted the router and was very pleasantly surprised that it then was able to connect to the internet. It's possible it just needed a little more time to pickup the information it needed from the ISP. Once the main unit is setup, then it walks you through placing the other 2 satellite stations. I was pleasantly surprised when they automatically connected to the mesh by just plugging them in. I didn't need to do any additional setup. They appeared in the app with a nice diagram of the network. I had a fairly nice Linksys single router previously and it definitely struggled to cover my entire house and my house isn't huge. Having the mesh network removes all the dead / low signal spots I had previously which I'm loving! My streaming devices and TV's have great signal now in every room. The app that installs on the phone is very feature rich and lets you do all sorts of things with your new equipment! One thing that was SUPER nice is the network optimizer. It analyzes interference from outside WiFi networks or appliances and finds the best channels for all your networks. 2.4 Ghz, 5Ghz, 6Ghz and shows you what channel it was before optimizing and what channel it picked afterwards. Definitely keeps things running as smooth as possible when you have neighbors! There is a convenient Speed Test function that uses speedtest.com, how many devices are connected and to which satellite, how much data and speed is being transferred in real-time. You can setup a special IoT network for keeping all your internet of things devices on to keep them off your primary network which is REALLY nice. I've been looking for a way to better protect my network from those sometimes insecure devices and now I have it! It supports a Guest network and sets up a 6Ghz network during setup. You can also run a VPN Server through the software for remoting into your home network or a VPN client to protect you on remote networks. There are advanced settings that are over my head that one can play with as well like Fast Roaming, Beamforming, and NAT forwarding. Beyond my needs, but the advanced features are there if you do need these! You can setup notifications when either new or existing devices connect to your network which is nice. The alerts can be Push Notifications or Email alerts. The application also has Parental Controls for the kiddos. I don't have children myself so I do not have much need for this, but it's there if you need it! It also comes with a 1 month trial of HomeSheild premium that adds extra layers of protection from outside threats, statistic reports, VPN, antivirus, IoT Protection, Intrusion Prevention and Web Protection. You have Basic which is free, then yearly or monthly rates for either Security+ or Total packages and the rates are really reasonable. Just a few dollars a month for either plan. Definitely helpful in keeping your network safe from hackers! The system automatically keeps the hardware running the latest firmware updates which is really nice as every other router I've ever owned has made this a manual and somewhat cumbersome process. This is set it and forget it! The 3 units themselves seem well constructed and solid. Each having 3 network jacks and a USB port for USB sharing. Each one has a little status LED at the base which is pretty minimal, but if lights bother you the app lets you turn off the lights or schedule times when they are off. These mesh network setups are a bit on the pricey side compared to your normal router setups obviously, but if you want a network that is without signal problem areas around your house and has great features in an easy to use app on your phone, then it's definitely worth the extra cost! I am loving this setup so far and would definitely recommend it to a friend looking for a better wireless network setup!

I live in a small detached unit away from the main house and the mesh coverage is still good enough. The speed and consistent connectivity is solid. Its also a breeze to setup. Pricey in 2025 but this is an example of you get what you pay for.

After a terrible putchase decision of an Orbi mesh system, i was reluctant to try another satellite system- but I have had success with other TP-Link systems in the past so i gave it a try. Night and day vs what we had before. Adding satellites was as easy as connecting then to power. I now have my work computer and one TV hard wired to a fast ethernet connection, as well as an X-Box for gaming in the kid’s room; and in another home office my wife is ethernet connected as well. The wifi speed is more than sufficient - but have enjoyed the stability of a wired connection for zoom calls, etc. The only challenge was i did need to reach our to xfinity to let the agent know we had new equipment. She needed to add it on ber end before we were up and running. This was after we followed the instructions for xfinity, but in the end the few minutes were more than offset by the ease of setting up and placing the system. You wont ce disappointed with this product and theres some level of future proofing as we aren’t using it to its fullest potential.

We had been using an old Google Wifi mesh system since 2016 and were in the market for a new setup. I was about to pull the trigger on a 6E mesh system that seemed like a god fit. All of the wifi 7 systems were crazy expensive and then this popped up. Wanting to future proof a bit I took the plunge and got this while it was on sale. Pros: - Noticeable improvement in speeds over an older wifi 5 system. - The extra networking ports allowed me to eliminate a network switch and free up some space in the tech cabinet. - Stylish and clean design - Awesome app for complete control of the unit. Cons: - The units themselves are quite large, but I knew that going into it. Was just a bit shocking going from a small puck to a larger tower design. - I expected the range to be better. We have gigabit internet and areas in the house that used to get 50 to 100mbps on wifi 5 now get 75 to 150 on wifi 7. It helps, but I was hoping for a bigger difference in the far reaches of the house, especially since these are much larger towers with higher power antennas. Overall, the system is great and the ease of setup through the app is awesome. Within about an hour I had our whole home swapped over and almost all of our IoT items updated to the new network. I only wish it was slightly

TP-Link - BE11000 Multi-Gig Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 7 System -model Deco BE65 Pro. The TP-Link Deco BE65 Pro /BE11000 Multi-Gig Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 7 is pretty amazing. Until now, all Mesh networks have been pretty MEH, with handoff problems, weak signals, poor overlap, and speed degradation and lack of hardwire and Wi-Fi together The BE11000 is impressive and provides a seamless mesh network with excellent performance, even if you aren’t using a Wi-Fi 7 device. What seems to be a little bit confusing is the naming convention. BE11000 Multi-Gig Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 7 System (3-Pack) is the product name, and the model is the Deco BE65 Pro. But even on the TP-Link site, knowing which name to look up for information or support can be confusing. The TP-Link Deco BE65 Pro Multi-Gig Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 7 System setup process is straightforward. However, the written documentation is somewhat limited. If you download the setup info from the TP-Link website, you might notice that it doesn’t exactly match the instructions in the app. This discrepancy can be a bit confusing, especially for those who prefer to read through the install instructions or do a quick overview before installing tech products. But rest assured, following the app's instructions should still lead to a successful setup. Now, if you are new to network setups, there can be some spots that are not as clear, and you can use some references or explanations. I suggest selecting what you think is right, and even if you make a mistake, you can change things. Also, I would recommend setting up the central unit first and testing it before adding additional nodes. Setting up the additional nodes is easy to do at any point. Another point about the installation I would like to comment on is that TP-Link should make a Windows app instead of, like many companies out there, just making an app that installs on your phone or tablet (Android or IOS). FYI, I use an Android emulator on my Windows 10 and Windows 11 PC, and the BE65 app works fine. Remember, it is not just an installation app but one that helps you manage and monitor your mesh network. I had a couple of hiccups on the install. One of these was recognizing the Wi-Fi on the Deco router on the initial try, even with a manual installation. And there were some other issues on the initial install where the app seemed to get lost. These were rectified by exiting the app and going back in. For some reason, the fingerprint log-in function would not work on my Android tablet. Other than these little glitches, the installation was smooth. I asked a person who wasn’t familiar with doing network installs to try setting up the system, and on a fresh install, the only problem they had was the app did not recognize the Deco router even when their phone was connected to it. After a restart, they were good to go. When adding an additional unit, there was some confusion about the instructions on the app. For the initial hookup of the second device, they were looking for the blue blinking light ( connecting) instead of the steady green light (all things functional), which wasn’t quite as straightforward as it could have been. The Unit is packed exceptionally well, and they are good-looking little towers. I can’t state it any better than this blurb from their website. “It delivers combined speeds of up to 11 Gbps on three bands through 6 steams, thanks to Wi-Fi 7 features such as MLO, 320 MHz channel, and 4K-QAM.1,4 Two 5 Gig ports and one USB 2.0 port allow maximum expandability.” I can’t detect that it uses AI to perform a seamless connection as you roam your home, but I could not detect when the roaming units switched to a different node. Each unit has 2.5 Gbps and two 5 Gbps WAN/LAN ports. The available ports with Backhauling allow you to connect both wired and wireless connections thanks to the Wi-Fi 7 MLO (Multi-Link Operation) technology. There was a minimal drop in internet speed, even in the downstream units. To make things easier to test, I initially hooked the master unit up to just a 1Gbps connection. With “SpeedTest” on the primary device, I could get 988 Mbps connections, and the connected units reported 899 Mbps. The downstream units only did slightly slower, but one has to consider a lot of things in this estimate without using some professional test equipment. Even though the Deco unit is by default set up to check for firmware and software updates ( and you can set it up when it downloads and applies these updates), I suggest doing a manual check at initial setup and following through a couple of days later. One came out within two days of my installation, greatly improving speed and eliminating all stutter. The mesh network units can be used as your complete network ( for up to 200 devices according to the specs), or you can use them to expand your network if that is what you need. The device is pretty smart at dealing with either setup, and the Deco app is easy to reconfigure and fine-tune. There is also Isolation, including a dedicated IoT Network, Wi-Fi Network control, Parental Controls, Guest Networks, WPA3, HomeShield, DoS, SPI Firewall, and QoS traffic Prioritization, and the system can work with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. I am still looking into all the possibilities to configure things best for my use. Plus, you can monitor and change your system from anywhere with your phone, tablet, or computer with an emulator. Finally, there is a Wi-Fi 7 mesh system with backhauling that works and works well.

The BE65 Pro is an excellent mesh system. I was experiencing issues with one of my Orbi RBR750 satellites and decided to upgrade to take advantage of WiFi 7 – and wow, is it fast! I’m also impressed with the Deco app’s user interface; the setup process is intuitive and straightforward. I do have two suggestions for improvement: the web interface is quite limited in functionality, with the app being the clear primary focus, and I wish at least one unit had an additional Ethernet port for more wired connections. Overall, the performance has been excellent, and I’m very happy with my purchase so far.

I did a lot of reviewing..probably too much, but I landed on this router replacement for my Linksys Velop mesh network which was barely WIFI5. Was fairly old, not as functional to use, and it required a lot of restarting. This system has so much potential and functionality and was fairly easy to setup in replacement of the old Velop network. It is very fast, and has more range the the 6 velop nodes I had to use before. I get more range and speed with less nodes! The price for performance, this is an excellent choice, and the Decos have been the only mesh system where you will or may have the option to turn off the wifi radios on schedule which is awesome. At the minimum you should be able to turn down the signal strength. We don't know the affects of wireless on the human body, but some early research suggests it isn't good, so having this option in the future is nice. Overall a great router mesh system, excellent app to manage, and easy to setup and use. I highly recommend if you're in the market for a new mesh network.

Pleased with my purchase. Installed easily and provides hi speed WiFi throughout my house with easy, simple connectivity. What more can it do?

I replaced my WiFi 6 mesh with this system and and WOW what a difference!! The setup was very simple and straight forward with the app and within 10 mins I was finished with the setup. This has a lot of the great features that WiFi 7 offers and this will further proof your WiFi for years to come. The product looks good and easily fits in with any decor. A must have for great WiFi. Highly recommend.

Works perfect!! The set up was super easy, most mesh systems require being plugged in next to each other in other to sync. With this system, you can plug them in where you want them throughout the house and they will sync to each other, even right out the box!! Super easy to set up and worth the price. And yes, they are great for gaming! There are two ps5s in the house and a bunch of Apple TVs and pods and things like that and there’s no major problems!

So far so good! The setup was incredibly straightforward with minimal configuration needed. The network device and node visualization features within the app are a nice touch.

Fast, great features, and wide coverage. I set this up on two floors using wired backhaul on one node. The performance is good on either of the node

Works great so far. Takes up less space than our old Spike Antenna version and connections have had no interference, except for my cat checking it out and knocking it on the floor. Only difficulty I've had is trying to hook up my HP printer, but the Printer is at fault there.

This was the easiest mesh system, I ever set up. App is very intuitive, with enough tools for most users. Great speed and a stable connection.

This Deco Wi-Fi is incredibly fast and boasts a robust network connection, which aligns perfectly with the results of my speed test. I highly recommend this Deco model.

Recently had 5gig fiber installed at my home and was not impressed with the router that was provided by the carrier (Ziply). After researching online for many hours, I came across this TP Link BE65pro 3-unit setup at BB on sale. Mind you, its still a lot more than I was hoping to pay but it seemed reasonable for a tri-band Wifi 7 system. The install went reasonably smooth thanks to the straightforward app on my iPhone. Quickly added all my devices and now I have lightning quick internet throughout the house. The app is really polished and provided all the info I need to monitor my network. I can setup a guest network, turn on/off the 6Ghz network, etc. You can even see the max broadband speed coming into your house to check if you're getting what you're paying for. So far i've been very impressed with this system and will be recommending it to others.

Product was relatively easy to instsll and works well. I am using a wired backhaul so i can't attest to how well wireless backhaul works. The only reason i sm giving 4 stars rather than 5 stars is you much purchase additional subscription based software for full protection.

This is my first mesh router so I have no basis of comparison except to say my WIFI reception is much better compared to my old router with a bunch of antennas. I ran an Ethernet cable from the upstairs mesh router to my PS4 and tripled the speed. My only complaint is the system doesn't support adding a network printer using the USB port. Apparently, Deco only allows the port to support a NAS storage device. Not sure why. My old router's USB allowed for a wired printer to be added to the network. Other than that, I've very pleased.
