Customer Ratings & Reviews

Fast, easy, and customizable. This is the perfect middle-of-the-road Wi-Fi router system in terms of usability, it has powerful options while remaining simple. I am coming from Nest Wi-Fi Pro, and the speed difference is wild: this is so much faster and the connection is crazy reliable. It's got support for IOT, Guest, and individual 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz networks. You can attach devices to specific nodes, and the connection is powerful.

I am very impressed with the DECO BE65 PRO system. The three units significantly improved my internet connection throughout the house, providing excellent speed, strong coverage, and a stable signal in every room. Setup was simple, and the performance has been outstanding. Highly recommended for anyone looking to boost their home WiFi.

Easy to setup and works great. Excellent connectivity and great range.

After years running Netgear Nighthawk gear, I recently switched to the TP-Link Deco BE65 Pro in hopes of finally getting reliable, full-house coverage in my 3-story, ~4,800 sq ft home. I’m happy to say: mission accomplished. Seamless Setup The setup process was incredibly smooth. I downloaded the Deco app, followed a few guided steps, and within minutes the primary unit was online and broadcasting. Adding the additional nodes was just as painless — the app walked me through placement and linking, with almost zero fumbling or downtime. Coming from Nighthawk, where I often had to fuss with DHCP or manual bridging, this felt refreshingly hassle-free. App & UI Experience The Deco app’s UI is clean, intuitive, and responsive. It doesn’t feel bloated or cluttered — just the right balance of power and simplicity. I appreciated how easy it was to see which devices were connected, their link speeds, and which node they were using. Network settings, parental controls, guest network toggles all of it is logically organized and easy to access. One thing to note (also mentioned in reviews): the app is the primary interface. The web dashboard exists, but it's quite limited compared to the app. Coverage & Performance In my house, the Deco BE65 Pro system actually covers all three floors. No more dead zones in far rooms or upstairs corners. Speeds are consistently strong: even in parts of the house that used to be marginal, I now get solid throughput and low latency. The tri-band architecture, including the 6 GHz band, helps reduce congestion. Combined with TP-Link’s mesh intelligence (adaptive path selection, seamless roaming), devices automatically latch to the best node/band without me having to micromanage. The range claims (up to 7,600 ft² in TP-Link’s spec sheet) gave me confidence this would work for a large home. Great system, you won't regret upgrading!

I have used WiFi mesh systems before across a number of vendors and prior to getting this TP Link BE11000 “Deco,” I was using a mesh system with a 2.5G dedicated wired backhaul so I was very excited to give this one a shot at being my WiFi provider at home. TL;DR for my frequent readers, followed by the more detailed review and photos. Good: 2.5 & 5GB ports - internet or backhaul App interaction (both Apple & Android) Form factor Network Optimization tool Real-time speed stats per device Coverage Speeds Bad: Only 3 ports per unit No cumulative stats per device Meh: Wireless backhaul speeds (environmental challenges) No advanced Web Interface All devices have the same amount of ports (no router vs satellite only) While doing the setup, there’s no way to set Access Point mode, so you have to start with Router mode - but no big deal, I just let it get an IP from my router & use its own IP scheme temporarily while it ran through its updates. Once all the pieces were updated, I changed from Router to Access Point mode and it was as simple as clicking a button in the App and I was back using my normal IP address range. I bounced between the iPad and Android App for all of my usage and each has worked wonderfully. A smaller form factor is nice, especially when I need to keep it out in the open but not be an eyesore. I have a router that I really like - so I kept this TP Link Deco system in Access Point (AP) Mode (just as the mesh system that I was planning on replacing), which allowed me to test this alongside my existing WiFi and not disturb the house; I ran like this for about a day and it worked out well. I tried to use the Web Interface - where with other vendors it exposes more advanced techie menus and options, but I didn’t find that here. It’s not a big deal, but something I was expecting to be there that wasn’t. Side note, I also ran a Wireless Backhaul on Day 1 so I didn’t disturb the current house network (as there’s only a single jack where I keep the satellite). I definitely saw a speed decrease while being attached to the satellite that was using the wireless backhaul. Wireless backhaul is good if you have no other option and need extra range, but if you can - use the wired option. I attached a photo showing how wireless & wired backhaul are represented in the App. I used the Network Optimization tool to see if it would change channels as it was running alongside my other mesh system and it did, as I was expecting / hoping. On day 2, I renamed the system to my existing WiFi SSID, turned the old one off and we were running on the new TP Link system; I cut over to the wired backhaul via the 5GB/s ports on each unit as. There’s no configuration needed when going from wireless –> wired backhaul; just plug it in and go. I went from 0 connections, to around 30+ almost instantly while everyone lost connection to the old APs and reconnected up (see images). From the Washer & Dryer to the Nest Hub Max and WiFi lights, I didn’t run into any issues but then again, I don’t have much “old” wireless tech and everything I had made the cutover seamlessly. With my old system, the doorbell would attach to the furthest AP and all I could do was hope it moved over time to the closer one, but with this TP Link system, you can set a “preferred” Deco to have that device connect to, knowing that if it falls offline it’ll go to whichever one is left closest (see images). I did have to put a small 5-port switch near my Deco as my last device had 4 ports + the Internet port and here, there are 3 total (Internet + backhaul take up two). I like that there are real-time stats so if someone is slowing down the Internet for everyone, I can see which device it is (I’ve named each one so I know what everything is on the network). I’m a bit disappointed that I can’t see cumulative stats – I’d like to know if my Washer or Dryer is sending GBs of data per night while I’m sleeping but I’ll only know if I’m looking at that moment. Fast forward to day 4. No hiccups and no complaints. Outside of me saying - I need to disconnect us from the Internet for a few minutes (to move cables around), nobody has mentioned anything and that’s a huge win. Now when it comes to coverage - the Deco is great. I can easily cover the entire house with two units and that extends out another 100 feet past the lanai to my WiFi bird feeder that tells me the signal strength is “Strong.” I also get wire speed over wireless via two different speed test websites. As of right now, this is a 5-star WiFi system. I hope it stays this reliable and if it does, kudos to TP Link on a great mesh system.

These are very attractive and easy to set up and use. The app works well and let me set them up how I wanted them. The speeds of this two pack are very good, the coverage is just OK. It doesn't do a very good job of moving devices from one node to the other, often leaving me with super slow speeds when I'm within feet of one node because I'm still connected to the more distant one. Even devices assigned to one of the nodes will frequently connect to the other one, requiring me to block the device in the app until it disconnects and then reenable it. It also has strange connection latency issues. It can take a minute or more for a device to actually have access to the internet after it connects to the network. Due to these issues and the need my kids have for reliable speeds for their college classes I had to go back to my old router. If they didn't have these specific issues they would be great.

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!

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!

The TP-Link-Deco Pro BE1100 was easy to setup. It easily covers all the area of my sprawled out house of 4700 sq ft. Adding items to the network is a snap. My internet speed increased making it easy to perform many task more quickly. I am greatly satisfied with this purchase.

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.

I purchased to replace an AX-11000 gaming router. Previous router was trouble free except a poor signal in an extension off the house. The feature that sold me on the Deco was the wired backhaul capability. I ran an ethernet cable from the "main" Deco (connected to the modem) to a Deco module in the extension off the house. I now have two wired connection points with great signals. The system has performed without issue since I installed it a month ago. Very happy with the new 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

This is the best mesh network we have used and by far the easiest to set up

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.

Easy setup and great performance. 6ghz is ultra fast if your device supports it.

Massive upgrade from outdated mesh WiFi. Had a Google Nest OG and upgraded to Deco B65 that I purchased on Black Friday. Went from 50-80 Mb/s on the Nest to 600 Mb/s to 1.0 Gb/s on wireless without back-wiring (or whatever you call it) with good signal strength throughout my home using the 3 nodes included in the purchase. App is intuitive, set up was easy and I honestly have no complaints thus far.

Paired this TP-Link BE11000 with my Xfinity gateway, and setup was quick and painless. Coverage and speeds are noticeably better, especially in rooms that had weak signal before. Everything stays stable, even with multiple devices connected. Great option if you want faster, future-proof Wi-Fi without replacing your existing gateway.

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.
