Customer Ratings & Reviews

Worst Wi-Fi system definitely was not worth the money that I spent on it. Easy to set up though very very slow. Two TVs couldn’t run at the same time even hardwired was a little sketchy.

Did not work for me, but i could have been my sevice provider.

Uniform speed throughout my 3500 sqft home with wireless backhaul

Just received to replace Google Pro due to being on sale and WiFi 7. Web UI is mininal at best, guess by design. The two units are supposed to be able to do 5800sq ft. I just dont see it, one of my outside camera keeps going off line. The app interface is better then the GUI, but still lacks that prosumer level. For the price level and to be a "PRO" product just isn't ready. Can't justify expense of this. Will be returning as soon as I can.

I’m replacing a Wifi 6 mesh network because I just couldn’t get the full range of connectivity and speeds that I needed around my house. Our house is 2500 sq/ft but I also need coverage in my yard because of my cameras and times when I need wifi for streaming videos or music, also more of my new devices are supporting Wifi 6e and higher connections now. Setup was very simple, you just need the Deco app and it walks you through it. You do need a TP Link account to setup and manage your network which I’m not a big fan of, I think end-users should have full control of their own hardware without needing to be tied to the manufacturer’s account database. I ran both my old mesh network and new mesh network side by side to get a good comparison of range. Typically when a wireless network detect another network it’ll use different channels to avoid any interference between both networks. They also offer a built-in Network Optimization feature within the app that will allow you to manually scan and automatically fix frequency and channel issues for you. The overall results….were better by decent amount. I went to the 4 corners of my lot (about ¼ acre), and compared internet speeds between both networks. I noticed around a 40-70% increase in internet speeds. There are still many options I have yet to attempt to use within the Deco app to adjust for setting improvements. I did use the MLO feature to use multiple frequencies at once with a device, but I’m not sure if my phone is compatible with it, but seems to be a great feature. There’s also a feature that dedicates the 6GHz frequency to be used for the access point communication only (aka your wifi nodes), basically disabling MLO and devices being able to use it, but if your mesh node locations are right, could definitely provide much higher throughput. Switching between my old mesh network and new one was really simple, just use the same SSID and password as before and all your home devices should be able to connect automatically. The Deco app lets you set notifications when new devices join the network to confirm they are switching over. It is also able to detect some Smart Devices on my network and have them categorized within the app. There is a nice list of options to really customize your network, especially if you are more advanced than the average user in network setup. So the app is built well in my opinion. Additional features include Block listing clients or allowing only certain clients to connect to your network, network isolation allowing sensitive devices not being able to be accessed from your main network, create a Camera Mode options for your home cameras, and allows you limited access to Parental Controls and other Security options without the premium subscription. The list of features goes on, but so far I’m really enjoying the TP Link Wifi 7 Mesh network. Oh, and once you do the main setup on the first Deco node/access point, all you do is power up the others and they automatically sync to one another….very easy. This Wifi 7 system is also a better price point at others I’ve seen recently released, so I think it holds a lot more value. And with the new Wifi 7 technology and the added 2.5 & 5Gbps compatibility, this system will hopefully future proof your network for many years. I’m currently on Gigabit speeds but now I’m looking to upgrade for higher network speeds as I do a lot of data transfers within my home network. I do highly recommend this system.

Set Up Experience Setting up the TP-Link User Account was very difficult as the verification code always arrived after the time out. Some how it finally worked and I was set up. Down loaded the app and started on my journey. Setting up the mesh was just the opposite. Very easy and super quick. This breathed new life into my network. Noticed TV’s, Phones, Laptops, Printers, streaming devices all working at fast speeds. Performed a speed Test and was satisfied with the results. User Interface Kudos to TP-Link for allowing the user to tweak the network. The preferred WiFi band Is set to auto, However, I could change the router preferred band to my preferred band If desired. You can do this for each individual device! The choices are 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz. Providing that the device being changed supports the selected band otherwise Just let the router choose the correct band and it does a good job of selecting the correct one. You can also select which node you want your device connected to so if your in another room with no node, you can change which node to connect to if desired. Other brands that I own do not allow this. As with all routers these days, you can give a particular device high priority such as a TV for streaming so you have the best possible performance and connection. You can add smart devices and control them from the TP-Link Deco App. Such as a Smart thermostat etc… Added Benefits TP-Link also offers a security upgrade for a better watch dog experience to keep hackers Out. It is a paid subscription. Upgrades are Security+ Web Protection, Intrusion prevention and IoT Protection. All start with a free trial. There is Parental Controls so you can dictate internet content and time on the internet. You can also turn the nodes led lighting off completely or set a desired off and on time. You can set up USB sharing. Each node has a USB port. Another available feature is being Able to add a VPN server in the app. You can also change how you want the router to roam For devices. Summary I find this to be a feature packed, well organized mesh package. Very happy with the performance and usability of this System. The App is also very easy to navigate.

This has been a nightmare. I had an older TP link 5400 6e that stopped working so I bought this one. I set everything up and placed the satellite s in the exact same places and it is so much slower. I disconnected the satellite from the bedroom and the tv in there runs better on the run in the office. The whole system is slow and was much better before. I have Spectrum internet with 1g service and they came out to confirm that the old router was bad. I hope to exchange it.

does not work with starlink and out of return period, ill be buying from amazon from here on

The TP Link BE11000 mesh system is incredible. We have a two-story house and getting a solid connection to all the upstairs rooms was always difficult. We have used mesh systems before and this one is the best we have used. Setup is very simple using the Deco app. The app is so good and easy to navigate. Just follow the instructions on your phone and it will have you up and running very quickly. It will notify you if you need to update firmware and I strongly recommend doing that once all your Deco's are connected. The update process is very easy and quick. I also recommend naming your network the same as your previous network and keeping the same password. That way all your smart stuff can connect without having to go to each "internet of things" device and reconnect it. Coverage is excellent throughout our entire house and we haven't experienced any drops or disconnects like we did with our last mesh router. The design, build quality and packaging are all top notch as well. The Deco's are MUCH smaller than our last router and they blend in nicely with everything. I did initially have an issue with a game I was playing on PC. I could not connect to the in-game shop in Overwatch. I ended up having to restart the router a couple times and that cleared everything up. So, if you run into any issues with anything just give the system a reboot. It may help. Overall, I definitely recommend this amazing mesh router. The coverage and ease of use are excellent!

Most unreliable wifi router I have ever had. I have to restart the Wi-Fi mesh quite frequently.

This is the first mesh system I have set up where I was done with the process in less than 20 minutes AND it actually worked correctly after that 20 minutes and within 20 percent of my fiber speed in rooms with router or satellites. This is also the first mesh system I was able to set up entirely with the App AND have it work correctly. Sure, there are quite a few things to fine tune things in the App like Network Optimization, choose whether you want to reserve the 6ghz band for backhaul only and the like, but it really "just worked" after the setup was done. I don't have any WiFi 7 clients (that I know of), but this setup has helped my WiFi 6E gear really get higher speeds wirelessly. I got my near full fiber bandwidth plugged into the router (as you would expect), but I also got within 5 percent of my full fiber bandwidth using my WiFi 6E laptop sitting in the same room as the router, sitting in the same room as satellite 1, and sitting in the same room as satellite 2 (after further tweaking and optimizing). That has never happened before, and I'm guessing I owe that to 1) this is my first WiFi 6E or WiFi 7 capable Mesh system I have tried and 2) the excellent performing wireless backhaul. I like the option to hook it up wired backhaul and wireless at the same time and it will use whatever is best, but if I was using wired backhaul, I'd just use good Access Points instead, they are far cheaper. I'm very happy with the way this wireless backhaul handles the materials in my home, when a signal killer floor between my basement and ground level main area causes problems, I can just tell it to use the other satellite for its signal instead of the router, or leave it on Auto for it to figure it out on its own. I'm very happy with this three pack, and when a single unit is available, I'll get one to extend to my garage/workshop area. I recommend this for fiber speed service 1gig up/down and above.

Amazingly fast Wi-Fi packed with all kinds of features and technology. In the box is 3 mesh Wi-Fi nodes with power cables and a single ethernet. Connecting them was easy. You can download the intuitive Deco app which will help you get each one setup. It was as simple as unplugging my old router and plugging up my new one to the modem and powering on. You can setup multiple Wi-Fi networks. Currently I’m using an IoT (internet of things) network for my smart home devices, a 6ghz network for my laptop and desktop (both have Wi-Fi 7 cards installed), and a 3rd for all other things on 2.4ghz and 5ghz network. The design is nice, they’re small but packed with features. Each one has 3 ethernet ports and a USB. You can easily use a wired backhaul to each node, or they can use a dedicated wireless band for internet connection. This limits some of the Wi-Fi bandwidth that can go to your devices but can allow strong Wi-Fi connection where cables may be difficult to run. Of the 3 ethernet, there are two 5Gbps and one 2.5Gbps ethernet ports, so very much setting up the new standard of high bandwidth connectivity. On performance, I was able to transfer a large video file at around 111 MB/s. At these speeds it’s easy enough to just shared folders across my network instead of using a flash drive. Not that a flash drive would be slower, but it’s just more convenient and the Deco routers have a steady connection so it remained consistent during the whole transfer. Signal is strong too. I have one of the units in my garage. My apple TV in my bedroom connects to it through a few walls and I haven’t had any issues streaming or downloading a recent update. Also no issues with connectivity when scrolling through social media on our phones. The Deco app is easy to navigate and packed with all kinds of settings and features. One of the first things I do with a new router is see if it has QoS and set up my more demanding devices. Very easy to do through the app. Also, you can see your client list, do port forwarding, set static routes, turn on and off Wi-Fi networks, and much more. I will say the only downside is while the app will let you navigate through all the features, I found that accessing the web app through my PC was lackluster. It didn’t seem as if it has the same options as the app and I felt quite limited as to what I could do. This is a bit of a small complaint, but I do like having all the same options. Also, if you want to connect to a new device, each node has a WPS button to make connections easy. You can also do this from the app which is convenient. Connecting to a USB drive is simple as well. You get a shared name and access it just like you would any other network drive. The speeds are not stellar but are within the USB 3.0 speeds. If you need to share data in a pinch, this works out great, but transferring over Ethernet and Wi-Fi will be much faster. Just to round this up in one paragraph, Wi-Fi 7 is the newest standard and offers some of the biggest leaps in speed in a while. It’ll take some time for other devices to catch up, but the router is the starting point, and Wi-Fi 7 allows the network to be smarter and more reliable compared to other networks and also allows the 6ghz band which is a quieter network for the time being. This mesh system is fantastic and easily recommended.

I know that I need to upgrade my WiFi network for some time. Our two story home had weak/dead zones upstairs, away from the router, from some time. However, the cost of mesh networks made me hesitate a lot. I finally took the plunge with the TP-Link Deco BE65 Pro 3 Pack. As mentioned in the name, this package offers a lot of pro features (which we’ll get to momentarily), but you wouldn’t know it out of the box. Setup requires the use or a smartphone app and it walks the user through the setup process step-by-step. This would be great for the average user, but for advanced users who like to connect to the router to configure things before disconnecting their entire live network, I didn’t see any options for this. I had to wait for a weekend morning before taking the plunge and disconnecting our entire network to get the new router in and connect individual clients one-by-one over the next several hours. Putting this to one side, setup was quick and easy. The additional bases easily connected to the mesh network themselves after being plugged in. It wasn’t until I was finally able to review the settings via the app that I found an option for access point mode. This allows the Deco to be added to an existing network via cable and used as additional hardware to extend the existing WiFi network. Oops. That would have saved some time. Ultimately, I’m glad I just bit the bullet and replaced the old hardware because the Deco has a lot of useful features, some of which future-proof it so I won’t have to worry about replacing this hardware for a long time. IPv6 is available, but turned off by default. Understandable, considering we haven’t gotten this successfully implemented. The router provides a separate Internet of Things network, so that you can connect all those smart devices separately and not look at the main network map and wonder at what all the random devices are. I like this because, security wise, should someone hack a smart device, they shouldn’t be able to access the computers if they are on a separate network. There are a lot of other awesome features that I could go on about, but let me quickly touch on some of the more useful ones. I haven’t set these up yet, but look forward to using them: Parental controls. It’s great that you can add clients to this section and limit network access times. Device Isolation: great if you have a client that might be at higher risk for outside attacks. Camera security: I love that you can add cameras to the internal network so that you can monitor them, but remove them from outside connection to avoid hacking snoopers. There are many more and I haven’t been able to review them all, but between the beefiness of the hardware itself and its features, I could see this system running our WiFi for a very long time coming.

The TP-Link Multi-Gig Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 7 system is the first mesh wifi I have ever used and it has worked wonderfully so far. I have been a fan of TP-Link routers for a while and I believe that the mesh wifi system raises the bar even further. I have a 2600 square foot home and even though the old stand alone router was adequate in terms of coverage, there were a few devices that always seemed to have speed issues or would momentarily drop connection to the router. The TP-Link mesh system solved those issues completely, and I also noticed a connection speed increase (both intranet and internet speeds). Since this is my first mesh system I was a bit concerned about how smoothly mobile devices would transition from one node to the next, but that is not an issue at all. I do not notice any lag or issues when my phone connects to a closer node in the house. Set up is straightforward and easy with the DECA app. You set up the first "tower" and that becomes the "router" or base station. Then you set up the "node" station at a different location in the house. I will say the only slight issue I had with setup was installing the 2 nodes. Each time I received a message in the DECA app stating that I needed to move the node closer to the main router, but that proved to not be necessary at all. The app works well. When a new device connects to the routers the app sends a notification, and the app also makes it easy to rename devices for easy identification. All the settings are in the app and I have had no trouble setting things up to my liking.

The only concern I have, it seemed like the remote nodes connected to my network without me adding them. I clicked the add device button, but it could not find the new Deco. However, when I went to the devices on the home tab, there was a Deco already added. I just renamed and it worked. I tested the range of the main router connected to my gigabit fiber modem. I used my phone and did a strength test and speed test with no secondary node configured from across my house. Speeds were not very good. Tried the same with my laptop. Same results. Range was approximately 1200 feet and speeds were 10 mb/s up and down through multiple walls. I configured the satellite node to connect to the main hub router. Attempted my speed tests again. Phone was well over 500 mb/s. Laptop was around 400 mb/s down and up. Quite impressive use of the satellite and connection speed. Added the other satellite in my son's room. He has a faraday effect in his room due to brick walls between his room where the PC sits and the main router. Speeds were consistent with what my previous mesh setup was. Much better than connecting to the main from the PC. The app interface is quite well designed for Android. Everything was easy to find and the design was minimal, no feelings of being cluttered. This might be the best design of an interface, not just networking apps, I have used on a cell phone. Streaming with the new network was almost perfect. Fantastic throughout. Some older devices may have problems connecting to the wifi 7 network, but I have not found any issues with my older devices as long as the routers were updated before connecting. The advanced routing allows for forwarding with fairly in depth options. This should allow me to span networks with my other hardware. I have not tested that yet. Overall, I recommend these highly.

I had been using Asus routers for over a decade so I purchased a three pack of the BT10's. I think because of firmware. it was not stable or fast. Since my network was down, I was not leaving BB without another router. I literally just grabbed these without any prior knowledge. I lucked out. They're great. Coming from the Asus, where everything can be adjusted, the interface on these is fairly basic. But, if you just need it to work, these are about as plug & play as it gets. I assigned 3 static IP addresses & enabled IPV6. Total setup was 20 minutes because I never used their app before. Once setup, I never messed with it again. No babysitting required. If you like to tinker, might not be for you. But. if you just need it to work, buy these.

have a 2G fiber internet connection and got this mesh router system to take full advantage of that bandwidth. As this is Wifi 7 capable and tri-band, it seemed to fit the bill based on specs. The install was okay. It had issues getting connected to my internet provider. After fiddling around in the app, I power cycled and it connected up after that. Performance: Standing ~3 ft from the primary router, I. get ~1300Mbps with an iPhone 15 Pro Max (my only Wifi 6E device). That was about 40Mbps faster than my old Wifi 6 router.) At ~7 ft from the second mesh node, I am getting ~600Mbps. That is about 2.5 times faster than the old system. Strangely, my office is about 20 ft and a one wall away from the primary router and I am getting about 1/2 the performance of the old system. App: the TP-Link app is good, it provides access to all the advanced things that I want to do (dedicated IP addresses primarily). IoT network: I have a few devices (solar panel inverter, Wyze cameras, etc,) that work best on a 2.4Ghz only. One reason for choosing this product was that it supported a dedicated IoT network. All in all you don’t get much better than this

I was excited to try out this TP-Link - BE11000 Wi-Fi 7 system in my house to see what, if any improvements I might see coming from my previous TP-Link Wi-Fi 6 system that I bought 2 years ago that was serving me quite well. Would I see improvements with Wi-Fi 7 and increased throughput on older legacy devices that still occupy my home... the answer was yes. Initial Setup Coming from my older Deco X55 setup made upgrading a breeze. I simply opened the app and indicated that I wanted to replace my existing main Deco. It walked me through connecting the Deco BE65 Pro via an ethernet cable to my Deco X55 and I powered on the Deco BE65 Pro. After about 3-4 minutes, the Deco BE65 Pro had received all of the settings and rebooted and was ready to go. I then powered off my old Deco X55 and disconnected the Ethernet cable. On to switching out my other Deco units for the additional satellites. I did not bother to relocate any, since my previous mesh network covered my entire house previously. After about 10 minutes, I was fully up and running with the Wi-Fi 7 equipment. Experience In my setup, I run the Deco's as access points, as I have them connected to a Fios router in my basement. The three mesh satellites are all hardwired for backhaul capabilities, and the Deco units serve as my only wireless sources. I also use the ethernet ports on the Deco to provide hard wired connections to an Apple TV in one room and an Nvidia Shield and Xbox Series X in another. I prefer my gaming and streaming setups to be hard wired when possible. My experience at this point was meh... no discernable improvement from my previous setup, since my hardwired devices topped out at 1Gbps. Where I was impressed was with the wireless capabilities, which is where this unit shines for me. I have about 40 devices on the network, ranging from IOT devices, laptops, streaming devices, phones, etc. Testing with an iPhone 13, which I believe is a Wi-fi 6e capable, I was able to get download speeds of about 918 mbps and upload speeds around 800 mbps... nearly a 50% increase for me over what I was able to get on speedtest in the Deco app with my old setup. In this case, I was about 15 feet away from the unit and had clear line of site, so for me was a real-world use case that is best case probably in my setup. When I tested with my Asus Zenbook 14 laptop which also has Wi-Fi 6E from my office, which is either through 4 walls or an entire floor away from one of the Deco's, I was still able to achieve 600-800 Mbps download speeds consistently, which was still about a 30% improvement. Videoconferencing in MS Teams and Zoom calls were flawless during my testing. With Wi-Fi 7 features like MLO you can achieve speeds up to 11Gbps, and that's where my biggest caveat is with this unit. I don't yet have client devices that can take advantage of this. None of my IOT devices support Wi-Fi 7, nor does my newest laptop from March 2024. And with my Fios speeds topping out at 1Gbps... it might be a while before I can upgrade in my area to a multi-gig setup. Overall, I'm thrilled that the wireless is stable, faster at longer distances, and features like 6Ghz bands, wireless backhaul, wired backhaul, etc. all make this an extremely reliable and feature packed unit. But I also recognize that I didn't have a coverage problem before. The TP-Link BE11000 is a great Wi-Fi 7 system, and is well designed like other TP-Link deco units to make placing them aesthetically easy to do. And if you are coming from an older Deco, like I did, upgrading your network is simple and straightforward.

My first mesh system and I love it. I have so many internet dead spots in my house because of the location of my modem. This system solve all my issue and speed up my speeds. Highly recommend. Works great for gaming as well!

Super easy to setup, finally no dead spots in the house and we get the gigabit bandwidth we pay for.
