Hi Landpet! I think speeds are good enough in many mesh systems. I am more interested in overcoming signal degradation because of walls.... Setting aside wiring your whole house, what do you think is best? Powerline or top notch fancy Wif-Fi 7? Thanks
I would go with cables as WiFi 7 is totally new, this is literally one of the very first devices with it on sale. I think it needs a lot of work yet to be good, certainly wait for different males to launch models, also I don't think WiFi 7 specs have been finalised yet.
The wireless backhaul speeds on this are next level; I did a demo in my previous video here: th-cam.com/video/y9fiQqi_egA/w-d-xo.html With that said, it really depends on your situation and your internet speeds. You can go through the power adapter, you can also use a MoCA device to go over Coax, both of these should work well but on wireless backhaul download speeds, you can get the full 5Gbps over wireless backhaul which is technically faster than MoCA 2.5 or any powerline adapter at least that I've seen, maybe there are faster ones now?
FINALLY!!! There's an affordable fast Wi-Fi solution but more importantly on with at least a pair of 2.5GbE and even better yet a pair of 10GbE ports!! Excellent information, This will be fantastic for my mother's home. I've been waiting for something like this for her, affordable and fast. BTW .. TH-cam's notification of you uploading a new video .. Worked.
One more thing, the problem with 1GbE ports or no faster (2x) pair of e.g. 2.5GbE or 10GbE is your local network especially if any traffic needs to be filtered though the router and not on a faster Switch. Hopefully, soon 2.5GbE ports will be the "norm" standard.
@@Eddienet It will probably reach with one wall based on the size. Yeah even the iPhone 14 Pro Max doesn't support WiFi 6E. Yes, Galaxy S21 Ultra was the first phone to support WiFi 6E.
my god you are so glowing when you do this review, and it really shows which means this thing is awesome .....so are you on att fiber and if so, I take it you enable IP pass through ?
I don't have a time frame for that now (also don't have it yet), I have a number of videos in my queue that I'm trying to get to. I am curious how good it will be seeing as how the BE85 is amazing.
This thing will handle all of that with ease. MLO is available for them, I don’t think they will take full advantage since they are limited on hardware as it is. This mesh is one of the best I’ve tested
I’m trying to figure out a router I used to have archer gaming router just stopped working from TP-Link router location is in the back would I be better off going with a mesh for better coverage? My house is a little older 3000 ft.² square feet or should I just do something like the nighthawk instead I know you done testing? What do you think I’m leaning more towards the mesh. But I would like to hear from more people that have experience with either product thank you.
If your speeds are less than 2.5Gbps, I would go with the Deco BE63. I’ve reviewed it as well. Nighthawk is great as well but at 3K sq ft, I would definitely go with the mesh.
You cannot separate the 2.4GHz from the 5GHz on any Deco I have tried, however you can separate the 6GHz, in fact you have to separate the 6GHz on every deco minus these new WiFi7 ones that have MLO. If you want options, ASUS lets you do just about anything including separating the SSID's for each band
@@futurecactus You actually cannot separate the 2.4GHz from the 5GHz and have them both on at the same time which is what people are asking. The advanced section has three choices: 1) 2.4GHz and 5GHz on at the same time 2) 2.4GHz only 3) 5GHz only If you select the 2.4GHz only, then only the 2.4GHz is On, the 5GHz is Off. Hence, that's not the same thing as what ASUS offers which allows you to create a different SSID for the 2.4 or the 5GHz.
@@landpet Thank you for your guidance. I've purchased the device, but I'm concerned it may not actually Wifi 7. It appears more like utilizing the Wifi 6/6E technology, with enhancements in channel and frequency range. The device employs a novel approach to operate on multiple channels or frequencies simultaneously, aimed at boosting network speeds. However, I couldn't find an option to set up a dedicated Wifi 7 radio. Instead, it relies on Multi-Link Operation (MLO) , which amalgamates various wifi radios (2.4Ghz,5Ghz and 6Ghz) to enhance speed. This leads me to suspect that what they're marketing as 'Wifi 7' might just be an advanced form of Wifi 6/6E technology. If you did not turn on MLO, it will just be a normal Wifi 6E router.
Can't claim to be WiFi 7 (802.11be) when the standard isn't even ratified by IEEE and the WiFi Alliance, if anything this is a DRAFT product. This TPLink product could be a brick in 2 years, when all said and done.
I wouldn’t say nobody, I personally need it because I have 5Gbps and runner wired backhaul. But I do agree that most people don’t need something this powerful.
yup, it's definitely a high price but it does bring value. It really just depends on your situation, it might be an overkill which is why at the end I mention the XE75
Can you do wired backhaul using the SFP+ ports on the satellite units to free up 10G ports? Fiber ONT to SFP+ on host Deco, 10G port on host to switch (or directly to SFP+ on satellite x 2), then switch Ethernet to SFP+ on each satellite? This would free up a 10G port on each satellite Deco. If going straight from the host to 2 satellite units, that would use up both 10G ports on the host but would free up 2 10G ports on the satellites so you would net one extra 10G
I just bought this setup for my 3400SF 2-story house that isn’t wired. I’m blown away. I’m coming from the Orbi RBK850 3-pack setup. In a daisy chain layout, my wifi speeds have more than doubled from my old Orbi setup. My furthest away satellite is pulling nearly 500mbps down vs 100-150 on the old Orbi. I have ATT fiber 1gbps speeds. If you can afford the system, don’t hesitate to get it. The app blows the Orbi app out of the water too. Very user-friendly.
Great video. I'm replacing my BE800 router with two of these in my small home as I am not getting good range AT ALL with the BE800. Looking forward to seeing the range benefits from the mesh network. It's a bummer they don't include a browser version of the TP-Link Deco software like they do for Archer though.
Thanks! I think the Deco has a browser version as well if you type in the gateway IP address into a browser. This thing should perform very well from what I've seen.
*Everyone* Deco XE75 Pro: the 3-pack currently has a $100 instant coupon available. That lowers the current price from $399.99 to $299.99 for a 3-pack of Wi-Fi 6E routers, which have a single 2.5gbs port on each unit. I think it's a great deal. My guess is that TP-Link is discounting this model, in anticipation of releasing the Deco BE65.
Thank You for this first Wifi 7 test ! I find the "Access Point" configuration mode usefull if you want/must keep your existing router (provided or not by your ISP) and avoid double NAT in your Network (even if you loose some functionalities like the Home Shiled protection) Does the Satellite have the same network ports than the Router ? (I can't find the confirmation on the french tp-link web page) ?
Yes. All modems are interchangeable. So basically there are no satellites. The one plugged into your ISP will be your main. I’m only using two. The third one I’m not using.
These new wifi 7 mesh routers use the MLO feature for backhaul aggregation, so it can use all 3 bands together for the backhaul and even wireless+wired backhaul. Almost no point in getting a quad band system anymore
Wow!!! Just Wow!!! Anyone who may have purchased the flagship Netgear Orbi 6E mesh has to be looking be looking to ditch them on eBay. Also, anyone looking to upgrade their switches has to consider 10GB somewhere in the mix. Glad I’m strictly CAT7 & 8 throughout. While TP-Link is first out the gate, I can’t imaging others are far behind. Any idea whats coming down the pike??
So ASUS and NETGEAR have some that will be coming out in the next few months, wireless backhaul is legitimately replacing wired backhaul for those that are unable to run wires. I also strictly use CAT7 and CAT8 cables and am running a 10Gbps switch.
@@landpet I was just about to settle into bringing my back end up from 1GB to 2.5GB, but your recent videos has causef me to scrap those plans to mix in some 10Gzb. You’re burning a hole in my wallet…😂🤣
It was announced a few months ago in my area. If it does what you need it do, then it's all good. If not, hopefully they bring by faster internet if it's not already available
Thanks! I can't imagine the BE95 either. Definitely going to do the same Mac Mini wireless backhaul test on that one as well assuming I can get my hands on one of those
@@landpet just realized something.. when you did the video when you connect the mac to the BE85 with ethernet via wireless bachaul. It went 5Gbps. There was no dedicated bachaul???????
In my opinion about decreased speed test wireless backhaul, I think that TP-link deco BE85 is tri band system WiFi 7 22000 Mbps when using wireless backhaul it will be delivered by frequency 6 Ghz. So TP-link will develop deco BE95 that is quad band WiFi 7 33000 Mbps. If test speed wireless backhaul with BE95, it will be speed up.
I have a 10Gbps fiber plan using XE75 Pro. I have my phone strictly set up to connect to the 6 GHz and i get connection throughoit the house. Will this improve rhe speeds of devices connecred kt the 5 Ghz band? It will be worth it for me to upgrade if it does as my wifi 6, 6e and 7 devicea will all get a apeed upgrade from my current set up. Thanks
@@landpet Thanks so much! Just orders the BE95 2 pack. Hopefully the coverage is similar to my XE75PRO 3 pack. I probably could have gotten away with a XE75PRO 2 pack. 😁
Question My knowledge is of a 2 year old 😊 I live on a open ranch log cabin. My router to the gate is 650+/- feet. Should I place a unit in the garage to extend the WiFi? Also I have a basement would I need a unit downstairs as well? I like the TPLink products but their customer service is not very desirable. I’m considering switching to a AG Ayrstone Mesh only to have the coverage outside if the BE85 can’t. Thank you for your help
Mine has no issues. Make sure there’s no other router that’s on. if you have a modem router combo, make sure you disable the router portion of that basically make sure this is the only router that you have running aside from your modem or ONT. I’ve done a set up video on the XE75, if you want to watch that for set up instructions it’s basically the same thing for this mesh system as it is for that
I have a bit of an issue. My home is not pre-wired, but it's a large 2-story home around 3500SF. Currently I have an Orbi AX6000 with 2 satellites. Due to the layout of my house, I have to do a daisy chain layout with wireless backhaul. My main router is in my downstairs home office, the first satellite resides in the downstairs living room, and the last satellite is in the furthest corner of my home upstairs in our Playroom. I have 1GB internet service... By the time I get to my first satellite my download speeds are ~200-300GB, and my upstairs satellite is ~100-200MBPS. Would a device like this, albeit insanely expensive help my situation due to its range and strength of signal? I just feel like my AX6000 doesn't have a strong enough signal...
is there a massive difference between the quadband vs the triband? I'm upgrading from Linksys Velope Mesh WiFi 5 so this will be a pretty huge upgrade. Debating on triband vs. quadband right now. Thanks!
is it possible to add to a BE85 router a XE75 (WIFI 6E) satellite? In italy I was able to buy a single BE85 node but I would like to buy a second one but it is currently unavailable. Will I get the 6E performances?
Yes you can mix and match and deco product. You're not going to get as good of speeds as you would if you have 2 BE85's though because the BE85 has a much faster speed rating and WiFi 7 can take more advantage of wireless backhaul by using all the bands unlike the XE75.
The main one would be fast, the others not as fast, granted XE75 is a great system. Unfortunately, I have too many videos in my queue, so I can't test this specifically. I will tell you though if you go wired backhaul, the XE75 is capped to gigabit so the speeds coming out of the XE75 will max out at gigabit speeds.
The speeds shown are those coming into the device, like a laptop. Is the laptop’s CPU, memory, whatever able to handle those speeds or is it all for naught?
I'm running a different setup now for testing, I forgot if this supported or not but if I said it did or showed it in the video, then it does. If I didn't say it, then it most likely doesn't support that because I can't remember any Deco that does support that feature. You can disable one or the other but not have them both on at the same time with a different SSID. I'm confident all other Deco's are like this, just can't remember if this one was the same.
You can slow down the speed of the video on any TH-cam video, you can also speed it up. It's a setting option, next to the resolution of the video. Called playback speed.
Friend, you are lucky to live outside Brazil, because the Deco with Wireless 6e has not arrived here yet, and it is a long way from that technology to arrive here.
And if you import, we pay a customs fee of 60% on top of the declared value. It's the same as buying 1 and paying for 3 products. Anatel, which is the supervisory body, bars these types of purchases.
Can you do a test on speeds with wireless and wired backhaul combined. I seen on the top link website that this is possible. You could test if this makes any differences. I could test mine be85 but I would have to run my Ethernet cable all over the house and I am afraid I will like the combined backhaul speeds Al lot that I will have to run Ethernet cable all over the house which my wife won’t like the idea 😅
I do get full speeds on wired backhaul with a computer that's plugged into the secondary node via ethernet. The phone's wifi can only go so fast. I actually did a speed test in this video live with my computer hooked up to a wireless backhaul node, so imagine if it was wired. th-cam.com/video/y9fiQqi_egA/w-d-xo.html
I have a question please. I currently have the xe75 pros setup on 1.5 internet. I do a speed test 6ft away from deco and I get 800+mbps on 5ghz but less than 30mbps on 2.4? The speed on 5ghz obviously eliminates the isp as the problem right? Why would I get such horrible 2.4 speeds? I think I should return these and get the BE95's cause I'm changing isp providers to 3up 3down anyway. But still...... why such bad 2.4 speeds? It's got to be the xe75 right?
2.4GHz is designed for range not for speed. You would get slow speeds on any mesh system even this BE85. Phones, laptops, computers, etc connect through the 5GHz or 6GHz (for WiFi 6E or 7 devices) to get faster speeds with normal range. Simply put: 2.4 is slow speeds with great range 5GHz is for good speeds with normal range 6GHz is for faster speeds with even less range. WiFi 7 devices that connect to WiFi 7 routers are able to connect through more than one frequency at a time. WiFi 6E and below can only connect through one band frequency
@landpet I guess I'm confused cause the xe75 box says 574mbps is possible on this frequency. :( also I forgot to mention I have a lifx bulb onky 30ft from the deco and it can't find it. It finds it fine when I move the light within 15 ft of the deco.
*landpet* "Wireless and Wired Combined Backhaul": I just noticed that the new TP-Link Deco BE65 lists this feature, but the BE85 and BE95 does not. Do you know if that was a marketing oversight or the BE65 has this feature exclusively?
@@landpet You are absolutely correct. I'm just now re-watching your video, and I'm reminded that you mentioned this fact toward the beginning of your video. My mistake. Thanks for clarifying.
Regarding an Access Point mode use case, this is actually a really nice/must have feature when you want to have a standalone hardware Firewall in router mode which would go between your ISP's modem/ONT and your Mesh. Like the Firewalla Gold Plus, which is awesome, maybe a bit overwhelming as it requires you to become almost a full-time sysadmin at home* *that's the reason I ended not keeping it even though it is really nice Also, exciting, I saw your BE85 running the 1.0.7 firmware and I checked, it got release today for the BE95! Will try this afternoon. W00t!
I do agree with that statement, granted most people will probably not use that. The Firewalla Gold Plus is great however it is limited to 2.5Gbps, so you're potentially losing out on the up to 10Gbps speeds. That was one of the reasons I mentioned it in the video. Maybe a future Firewalla Platinum Plus (with 10Gbps ports). Let me know how it goes! I'm hoping to get my hands on a BE95 as well.
@@landpet I returned the Firewalla Gold Plus because it was like throwing away 75% of my 10 Gbps.... I haven't tried HomeShield Pro and may revisit Firewalla when they launch Gold Plus Plus instead :) Did not nothing anything new with the 1.0.7 upgrade.
I am using the Firewalls Gold Plus and the Deco BE85 in this way. Still rare for me to get or justify Internet beyond 1G speed, but why I wanted these and run them in AP mode is that I have two Internet connections going into the Firewall Gold. A 1G and a 300mbps, both symmetrical. The FWG+ works well load balancing at 70/30 plus some preferred routes going over on or the other connection. Note that I am using Optimum/Altice and Verizon fiber for the Internet. I had stability issue with Optimum which was not ideal with 2 people working from home full time. The dual connections has been flawless for a year. Have never lost connectivity since despite intermittent failures on Optimum.
Actually I'm not that impressed, you are losing a third to a half of your 5gbps internet speeds on WiFi even 7. The tech needs a lot of improvement to be viable I think. Also need to use cat 8 cables really with it.
Cat7 cables are also fine, that's what I run typically, granted I have a cat8 cable as well. Not many devices out now that can take full advantage of these speeds.
@@landpet Cat 7 is a strange one. When that standard was set it was for a specific new type of port that wasn't widely adopted. So your actually better off with Car 6A, or 8, cat 7 was a bit of a flawed standard although the cables do work, just not at their intended potential. Still I think WiFi 7 needs further development yet. WiFi has come a long way though in a relatively short space of time.

Question, I just purchased these routers, and I was wondering if I can use the fiber optic port with an ethernet attachment, or an adapter and free up an extra port
sometimes it's an either/or port where you could use one or the other. I forgot off the top of my mind if this deco that way or not. You can always get a switch to add more ports
If my isp only offers 1 gig do I need something like this? I currently have the deco xe75. I want to get this but I can not see any advantages because of my isp limitations. I would imagine my isp eventually moving to newer technology in the next several years. Thoughts?
There will be some benefits with thos ocer the XE75 like slightly better wireless backhaul speeds for your speeds and will have better range. But I dont think its worth the upgrade for your speeds.
No wifi 7 device clients yet. There are barely any wifi 6E devices. The issue with 6 GHz is it has limited range. It is stupid fast but the reach isn't that far.
Any phone with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 or Dimensity 9200 has the hardware for Wifi 7, at least in the flagship phone segment, almost all Android flagships by next year will support Wifi 7. 6Ghz range should be very similar to 5.2/5.8ghz in most countries and the speed is only theoretically marginally faster. 6Ghz is not different spectrum, it's more spectrum.
Where I live 10gbps fiber is available. This looks like it would work for all the upgraded neighborhoods. Both Xfinity and Ezfiber could take advantage of this. Especially if you have the whole smarthome network plus security and you work from home. The only thing I don't like is the prices for these wifi 6e and 7 devices.
That's pretty amazing 10Gb is available there, we just got 5Gbps availability a few months back. Yes they are expensive but they are packed with fast ports and fast speeds
@@landpet It's been 10 years since fiber was available but only the new neighborhoods had it. Anywhere there is an internet backbone the lines were upgraded in Houston. I live outside Houston city limits and all the new homes have ethernet and switches.
@@landpet I think I asked this on another post but since you’re here I was wondering if ASUS mesh systems can be configured like the TP-Link in regards to one log in and the unit decides if it 2.4 or 5ghz? I’ve had both brands and that is the one thing that kind of annoys me with the ASUS.
Given that the max speed on 6GHz is 11Gbps and on 5GHz is around 8Gbps... this is sad slow.. but still good in everyday use wifi i guess... But that ethernet speed tho... that max speed
is wifi 7 a thing now? I have a fast 10gb internet connection and currently have a wifi 6e router. if i upgrade to a wifi 7 router will I benefit from it?
It does have really good wireless backhaul speeds and does have fast Internet ports. So depends if your current router is capping speeds because it doesn't have enough fast ports or some other reason
@@landpet I have the Asus rapture GT axe16000 and I get between 1600 and 1800mbps on the 6ghz frequency. From what I understand thats about the top end of what you can expect wirelessly from WiFi 6e. Nothings being capped. I just want the fastest wireless possible as I have a 10gb fibre connection. I didn't think WiFi 7 was going to be a thing until late next year so I'm confused with these new WiFi 7 routers and devices now starting to support it with the OnePlus 11. So I'm really confused. Is WiFi 7 out now then?
@@samhawkes6597 the official release is scheduled to come out next year but manufacturers are already making them, the speeds I've seen makes this thing real to me.
well luckily most of my speed tests are done with local speeds, so the 5Gbps is only a small fraction of my testing, but moving forward, new devices will be tested at 5Gbps. I upgraded mostly for WiFi 7 since these routers actually come with the fast ports to support the fast speeds.
The BE95 in theory should have better wireless backhaul speeds based on its speed rating however this thing is already so fast. If you have a 10Gbps LAN and you're planning on running wireless backhaul, I would opt for the BE95 but I haven't tested the BE95 so just guessing based on its specs.
This definitely fits the bill but you can get something less expensive that will get close to this in terms of performance since you're being capped to Gig speeds anyways
@@timmasters4893 This has the best range so far that I've tested. The ASUS ET12 Pro also had really good range. The XE75 Pro was not too bad considering the price
Range is the strength of mesh, just add more mesh nodes though I believe they don't recommend more than 3 from the router but that's a lot of range, after that you can add 60Ghz wireless bridges leading to more mesh nodes for greater ranges if you need to go further across large properties, so long as you have line of sight.

Yikes, it's scary that mesh Mesh Wifi systems are so expensive that Amazon is offering financing on them
Yeah the best ones do cost a pretty penny
So all the unit can be a router and satellites right?? Nothing different.. but Not like orbi that router unit different with the satellites .. right?
Correct
What’s the best way to handle things like ChromeCast or Google Home on here that requires the devices be on the same network? Does MLO work?
This thing will handle all of that with ease. MLO is available for them, I don’t think they will take full advantage since they are limited on hardware as it is. This mesh is one of the best I’ve tested

If your speeds are less than 2.5Gbps, I would go with the Deco BE63. I’ve reviewed it as well. Nighthawk is great as well but at 3K sq ft, I would definitely go with the mesh.

However, I couldn't find an option to set up a dedicated Wifi 7 radio. Instead, it relies on Multi-Link Operation (MLO) , which amalgamates various wifi radios (2.4Ghz,5Ghz and 6Ghz) to enhance speed. This leads me to suspect that what they're marketing as 'Wifi 7' might just be an advanced form of Wifi 6/6E technology. If you did not turn on MLO, it will just be a normal Wifi 6E router.
are these range test with or without obstructions?
Some obstructions, not many once I get outside
Have you noticed any dropouts? I keep reading across different reviews of BE85/95 having random disconnections which sways me away from buying.
I haven’t had any dropouts
@@landpet That's great to hear. Now the tough decision of whether to go BE85 or 95.
3:37 lucky you i guess ;-)
Lol
Can't claim to be WiFi 7 (802.11be) when the standard isn't even ratified by IEEE and the WiFi Alliance, if anything this is a DRAFT product. This TPLink product could be a brick in 2 years, when all said and done.
This isn't draft N v2, those mistakes would have undoubtably be learnt from.
Nobody needs this 😂
They price is just way too much
I wouldn’t say nobody, I personally need it because I have 5Gbps and runner wired backhaul. But I do agree that most people don’t need something this powerful.
LOL $1500? plus tax? no Thanks
yup, it's definitely a high price but it does bring value. It really just depends on your situation, it might be an overkill which is why at the end I mention the XE75
Can you do wired backhaul using the SFP+ ports on the satellite units to free up 10G ports?
Fiber ONT to SFP+ on host Deco, 10G port on host to switch (or directly to SFP+ on satellite x 2), then switch Ethernet to SFP+ on each satellite?
This would free up a 10G port on each satellite Deco. If going straight from the host to 2 satellite units, that would use up both 10G ports on the host but would free up 2 10G ports on the satellites so you would net one extra 10G
WHEN Would they finish Implementing something new, Before coming out with some thing even NEWER?!!
There's always something new coming out
I just bought this setup for my 3400SF 2-story house that isn’t wired. I’m blown away.
I’m coming from the Orbi RBK850 3-pack setup.
In a daisy chain layout, my wifi speeds have more than doubled from my old Orbi setup.
My furthest away satellite is pulling nearly 500mbps down vs 100-150 on the old Orbi.
I have ATT fiber 1gbps speeds.
If you can afford the system, don’t hesitate to get it.
The app blows the Orbi app out of the water too. Very user-friendly.
This is the best mesh system I have tested to date, thanks for the numbers
Lack of real wired backhaul spoils the whole experience.
wireless backhaul on this is still quite fast assuming you wire your device to it (even to a wireless node). th-cam.com/video/y9fiQqi_egA/w-d-xo.html
Great video. I'm replacing my BE800 router with two of these in my small home as I am not getting good range AT ALL with the BE800. Looking forward to seeing the range benefits from the mesh network. It's a bummer they don't include a browser version of the TP-Link Deco software like they do for Archer though.
Thanks! I think the Deco has a browser version as well if you type in the gateway IP address into a browser.
This thing should perform very well from what I've seen.
*Everyone* Deco XE75 Pro: the 3-pack currently has a $100 instant coupon available. That lowers the current price from $399.99 to $299.99 for a 3-pack of Wi-Fi 6E routers, which have a single 2.5gbs port on each unit. I think it's a great deal. My guess is that TP-Link is discounting this model, in anticipation of releasing the Deco BE65.
That's a great deal
It’s 4x more expensive than their XE75 Pro? No thanks!
Yup, not for everyone, I mention this at the end of the video
Thank You for this first Wifi 7 test !
I find the "Access Point" configuration mode usefull if you want/must keep your existing router (provided or not by your ISP) and avoid double NAT in your Network (even if you loose some functionalities like the Home Shiled protection)
Does the Satellite have the same network ports than the Router ? (I can't find the confirmation on the french tp-link web page) ?
No problem! Sure you can do that as well
Yes. All modems are interchangeable. So basically there are no satellites. The one plugged into your ISP will be your main. I’m only using two. The third one I’m not using.
Be careful. TP-Link is a Chinese company. China has state supported security issues that you should consider.
lots of stuff is made there, I'm not too worried personally.
These new wifi 7 mesh routers use the MLO feature for backhaul aggregation, so it can use all 3 bands together for the backhaul and even wireless+wired backhaul. Almost no point in getting a quad band system anymore
This thing is truly amazing
Wow!!! Just Wow!!! Anyone who may have purchased the flagship Netgear Orbi 6E mesh has to be looking be looking to ditch them on eBay. Also, anyone looking to upgrade their switches has to consider 10GB somewhere in the mix. Glad I’m strictly CAT7 & 8 throughout. While TP-Link is first out the gate, I can’t imaging others are far behind. Any idea whats coming down the pike??
So ASUS and NETGEAR have some that will be coming out in the next few months, wireless backhaul is legitimately replacing wired backhaul for those that are unable to run wires. I also strictly use CAT7 and CAT8 cables and am running a 10Gbps switch.

if the BE85 is impressive, I don't want to imagine how the BE95 will work!! Great Review!!
Way better i thin eapecially on the wireless backhaul.. BE95 is quad band
I like that is a quad band and you don't have to choose between backhaul and devices for the 6 Ghz band.
Thanks! I can't imagine the BE95 either. Definitely going to do the same Mac Mini wireless backhaul test on that one as well assuming I can get my hands on one of those
@@landpet just realized something.. when you did the video when you connect the mac to the BE85 with ethernet via wireless bachaul. It went 5Gbps. There was no dedicated bachaul???????
Would love a BE85 BE95 comparison... looks like the same hardware and the only difference is the extra 6 GHz band?
what processor on TP-Link Deco BE85 ?
Qualcomm Neworking Pro 1220
2.2 GHz Quadcore Arm A73
Fan noise? I watched the whole video to see what the noise was like..
Its frustrating it's not mentioned even on the product page.
I don't remember this having a noise.
Love your detail review. For future router review can you include testing the speed for using external USB drive as basic file sharing? Thanks
For range test. How does this compare with a single Asus GT BE98 ?
Why Beamforming is disabled ??
Generally it’s good to be enabled. Sometimes I record the screen without my final adjusted settings
MBps is actually a speed not MBps... Mbps/8 = MBps .. stop clickbait bruh ... 5005mbps/8= 626MBps approx
In my opinion about decreased speed test wireless backhaul, I think that TP-link deco BE85 is tri band system WiFi 7 22000 Mbps when using wireless backhaul it will be delivered by frequency 6 Ghz. So TP-link will develop deco BE95 that is quad band WiFi 7 33000 Mbps. If test speed wireless backhaul with BE95, it will be speed up.
I'm hoping it will
That will cost a fortune, quad band devices are particularly expensive, Netgear charges 2 grand almost for it.
Great video. Thanks!

If you’re running 10Gbps, this will help. XE75 Pro is throttling a lot (more with Ethernet connects devices) but with WiFi devices as well.

Bro plz do review TP LINK DECO BE65 😊😊
If i get my hands on it, I'll be sure to. I did however get the new BE63, be on the lookout for that.
Question
My knowledge is of a 2 year old 😊
I live on a open ranch log cabin. My router to the gate is 650+/- feet. Should I place a unit in the garage to extend the WiFi?
Also I have a basement would I need a unit downstairs as well?
I like the TPLink products but their customer service is not very desirable.
I’m considering switching to a AG Ayrstone Mesh only to have the coverage outside if the BE85 can’t.
Thank you for your help
Very unstable WiFi even after the update. Very disappointing and it costs a fortune. Any recommendations for solving this problem
Mine has no issues. Make sure there’s no other router that’s on. if you have a modem router combo, make sure you disable the router portion of that basically make sure this is the only router that you have running aside from your modem or ONT. I’ve done a set up video on the XE75, if you want to watch that for set up instructions it’s basically the same thing for this mesh system as it is for that
Problem solved. Thanks
@@Efro1953Glad to hear it
I have a bit of an issue. My home is not pre-wired, but it's a large 2-story home around 3500SF. Currently I have an Orbi AX6000 with 2 satellites. Due to the layout of my house, I have to do a daisy chain layout with wireless backhaul. My main router is in my downstairs home office, the first satellite resides in the downstairs living room, and the last satellite is in the furthest corner of my home upstairs in our Playroom. I have 1GB internet service... By the time I get to my first satellite my download speeds are ~200-300GB, and my upstairs satellite is ~100-200MBPS.
Would a device like this, albeit insanely expensive help my situation due to its range and strength of signal? I just feel like my AX6000 doesn't have a strong enough signal...
This will get you better speeds for sure compared to that.
is there a massive difference between the quadband vs the triband? I'm upgrading from Linksys Velope Mesh WiFi 5 so this will be a pretty huge upgrade. Debating on triband vs. quadband right now. Thanks!
Triband and quad band are not a huge difference so as long as either one has a fast rating.
is it possible to add to a BE85 router a XE75 (WIFI 6E) satellite? In italy I was able to buy a single BE85 node but I would like to buy a second one but it is currently unavailable. Will I get the 6E performances?
Yes you can mix and match and deco product. You're not going to get as good of speeds as you would if you have 2 BE85's though because the BE85 has a much faster speed rating and WiFi 7 can take more advantage of wireless backhaul by using all the bands unlike the XE75.
Unstable!!! Utterly useless
This is like the perfect AP... i do my routing on my virtualized pfsense! :)
Great to hear!
I have a XE75 Mesh system, could you do a test of one BE85 base unit linked to multiple XE75? How would this system behave? Thanks
The main one would be fast, the others not as fast, granted XE75 is a great system. Unfortunately, I have too many videos in my queue, so I can't test this specifically. I will tell you though if you go wired backhaul, the XE75 is capped to gigabit so the speeds coming out of the XE75 will max out at gigabit speeds.
The speeds shown are those coming into the device, like a laptop. Is the laptop’s CPU, memory, whatever able to handle those speeds or is it all for naught?
As long as the Ethernet port can handle it or WiFi can, the computer will use it
Mouthwatering , sounds like you can now give discreet SSID's to 2.4 and 5 ghz bands. Is that the case ?? It has been a showstopper for me with DECO.
I'm running a different setup now for testing, I forgot if this supported or not but if I said it did or showed it in the video, then it does. If I didn't say it, then it most likely doesn't support that because I can't remember any Deco that does support that feature. You can disable one or the other but not have them both on at the same time with a different SSID. I'm confident all other Deco's are like this, just can't remember if this one was the same.
I thought the galaxy S 23 ultra have Wi-Fi seven at least that was what I was told by an AT&T rep when we were looking it up and I asked about it
S23 has the new snapdragon chip which technically has wifi 7 but Samsung only advertises it as wifi 6e. I get wifi 6e speeds out of it
How easy is it to setup VPN like NordVPN on this?
You are obviously excited about this unit. But, you talk WAY to fast in trying to explain.
You can slow down the speed of the video on any TH-cam video, you can also speed it up. It's a setting option, next to the resolution of the video. Called playback speed.
Friend, you are lucky to live outside Brazil, because the Deco with Wireless 6e has not arrived here yet, and it is a long way from that technology to arrive here.
And if you import, we pay a customs fee of 60% on top of the declared value. It's the same as buying 1 and paying for 3 products. Anatel, which is the supervisory body, bars these types of purchases.
I got it and it sucks
Can you do a test on speeds with wireless and wired backhaul combined. I seen on the top link website that this is possible. You could test if this makes any differences. I could test mine be85 but I would have to run my Ethernet cable all over the house and I am afraid I will like the combined backhaul speeds Al lot that I will have to run Ethernet cable all over the house which my wife won’t like the idea 😅
I do get full speeds on wired backhaul with a computer that's plugged into the secondary node via ethernet. The phone's wifi can only go so fast. I actually did a speed test in this video live with my computer hooked up to a wireless backhaul node, so imagine if it was wired.
th-cam.com/video/y9fiQqi_egA/w-d-xo.html
Wow, impressed by the speeds it delivers! Also, the ROG Phone 7/7 Ultimate supports Wi-Fi 7.
And xiaomi 13 pro if not mistaken
@@4givenoxygenbarez Yeah, that thing supports 8x8 MIMO too.
I didn't realize the ROG Phone supported it either, thanks for the heads up!
I have a question please. I currently have the xe75 pros setup on 1.5 internet. I do a speed test 6ft away from deco and I get 800+mbps on 5ghz but less than 30mbps on 2.4? The speed on 5ghz obviously eliminates the isp as the problem right? Why would I get such horrible 2.4 speeds? I think I should return these and get the BE95's cause I'm changing isp providers to 3up 3down anyway. But still...... why such bad 2.4 speeds? It's got to be the xe75 right?
2.4GHz is designed for range not for speed. You would get slow speeds on any mesh system even this BE85.
Phones, laptops, computers, etc connect through the 5GHz or 6GHz (for WiFi 6E or 7 devices) to get faster speeds with normal range.
Simply put: 2.4 is slow speeds with great range
5GHz is for good speeds with normal range
6GHz is for faster speeds with even less range.
WiFi 7 devices that connect to WiFi 7 routers are able to connect through more than one frequency at a time. WiFi 6E and below can only connect through one band frequency
@landpet I guess I'm confused cause the xe75 box says 574mbps is possible on this frequency. :( also I forgot to mention I have a lifx bulb onky 30ft from the deco and it can't find it. It finds it fine when I move the light within 15 ft of the deco.
Can you tell me if it is possible to use it as the main one and the additional m9 plus model in a mesh network?
You could
Is it worth buying?
This is the best mesh system I’ve tested to date
*landpet* "Wireless and Wired Combined Backhaul": I just noticed that the new TP-Link Deco BE65 lists this feature, but the BE85 and BE95 does not. Do you know if that was a marketing oversight or the BE65 has this feature exclusively?
It says that ok the box of the BE85, you can see it towards the beginning of the video
@@landpet You are absolutely correct. I'm just now re-watching your video, and I'm reminded that you mentioned this fact toward the beginning of your video. My mistake. Thanks for clarifying.
Regarding an Access Point mode use case, this is actually a really nice/must have feature when you want to have a standalone hardware Firewall in router mode which would go between your ISP's modem/ONT and your Mesh. Like the Firewalla Gold Plus, which is awesome, maybe a bit overwhelming as it requires you to become almost a full-time sysadmin at home*
*that's the reason I ended not keeping it even though it is really nice
Also, exciting, I saw your BE85 running the 1.0.7 firmware and I checked, it got release today for the BE95! Will try this afternoon. W00t!
I do agree with that statement, granted most people will probably not use that. The Firewalla Gold Plus is great however it is limited to 2.5Gbps, so you're potentially losing out on the up to 10Gbps speeds. That was one of the reasons I mentioned it in the video. Maybe a future Firewalla Platinum Plus (with 10Gbps ports).
Let me know how it goes! I'm hoping to get my hands on a BE95 as well.
@@landpet I returned the Firewalla Gold Plus because it was like throwing away 75% of my 10 Gbps.... I haven't tried HomeShield Pro and may revisit Firewalla when they launch Gold Plus Plus instead :)
Did not nothing anything new with the 1.0.7 upgrade.
I am using the Firewalls Gold Plus and the Deco BE85 in this way. Still rare for me to get or justify Internet beyond 1G speed, but why I wanted these and run them in AP mode is that I have two Internet connections going into the Firewall Gold. A 1G and a 300mbps, both symmetrical. The FWG+ works well load balancing at 70/30 plus some preferred routes going over on or the other connection. Note that I am using Optimum/Altice and Verizon fiber for the Internet. I had stability issue with Optimum which was not ideal with 2 people working from home full time. The dual connections has been flawless for a year. Have never lost connectivity since despite intermittent failures on Optimum.
@@cwantuch I have no problem justifying my 10 Gbps internet :)
How many Devices can be connected to work as mesh. 3+1 or more?
Typically no more than 5
Hi - can you please help test the deco be65? Thanks!
I don’t have that one, maybe in the future, I can’t say right now.
I have a few others I gotta review
Actually I'm not that impressed, you are losing a third to a half of your 5gbps internet speeds on WiFi even 7. The tech needs a lot of improvement to be viable I think. Also need to use cat 8 cables really with it.
Cat7 cables are also fine, that's what I run typically, granted I have a cat8 cable as well. Not many devices out now that can take full advantage of these speeds.
@@landpet Cat 7 is a strange one. When that standard was set it was for a specific new type of port that wasn't widely adopted. So your actually better off with Car 6A, or 8, cat 7 was a bit of a flawed standard although the cables do work, just not at their intended potential. Still I think WiFi 7 needs further development yet. WiFi has come a long way though in a relatively short space of time.
One of the key parts that audience would like to see is the real-time speed test, instead of a PPT page to show some bars.
Sure, i did that before this video. One video and one short.

1rst gen ssd speed over wireless.. think about that. insane.
speeds over wireless are truly insane, i did another short video of this demoing the wireless backhaul with my computer.
No wifi 7 device clients yet. There are barely any wifi 6E devices. The issue with 6 GHz is it has limited range. It is stupid fast but the reach isn't that far.
not many wifi 7 devices aside from the OnePlus 11 and the new ASUS ROG phone (thanks to one of the people here, Ifran Ali, here who mentioned it)
Any phone with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 or Dimensity 9200 has the hardware for Wifi 7, at least in the flagship phone segment, almost all Android flagships by next year will support Wifi 7. 6Ghz range should be very similar to 5.2/5.8ghz in most countries and the speed is only theoretically marginally faster. 6Ghz is not different spectrum, it's more spectrum.
Can u use this router with a deco m9 as a additional mesh point?
You should be able to but I would recommend this be your main router and use the m9 as an access point
Where I live 10gbps fiber is available. This looks like it would work for all the upgraded neighborhoods. Both Xfinity and Ezfiber could take advantage of this. Especially if you have the whole smarthome network plus security and you work from home. The only thing I don't like is the prices for these wifi 6e and 7 devices.
That's pretty amazing 10Gb is available there, we just got 5Gbps availability a few months back. Yes they are expensive but they are packed with fast ports and fast speeds
@@landpet It's been 10 years since fiber was available but only the new neighborhoods had it. Anywhere there is an internet backbone the lines were upgraded in Houston. I live outside Houston city limits and all the new homes have ethernet and switches.

I dont believ these make noise, i cant remember if there is a fan or not but i dont think it does or its silent.
@@landpet I think I asked this on another post but since you’re here I was wondering if ASUS mesh systems can be configured like the TP-Link in regards to one log in and the unit decides if it 2.4 or 5ghz? I’ve had both brands and that is the one thing that kind of annoys me with the ASUS.
I prefer a traditional router.

About the same speeds on or off as a dedicated backhaul.

Wireless backhaul with 2Gbps.. this is amazing...

Who do you think should go for the be95 instead of the 85?
The BE95 in theory should have better wireless backhaul speeds based on its speed rating however this thing is already so fast. If you have a 10Gbps LAN and you're planning on running wireless backhaul, I would opt for the BE95 but I haven't tested the BE95 so just guessing based on its specs.

This definitely fits the bill but you can get something less expensive that will get close to this in terms of performance since you're being capped to Gig speeds anyways
@@landpet what's better value. Range is really my more important factor. I won't have over gb for a long time.
@@timmasters4893 This has the best range so far that I've tested. The ASUS ET12 Pro also had really good range. The XE75 Pro was not too bad considering the price
Range is the strength of mesh, just add more mesh nodes though I believe they don't recommend more than 3 from the router but that's a lot of range, after that you can add 60Ghz wireless bridges leading to more mesh nodes for greater ranges if you need to go further across large properties, so long as you have line of sight.
Wow
Yup
