@JV-tv4zw Out of these two options, I would recommend the EAP773 for a few reasons. The EAP773 supports IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) and the 6 GHz band, which can be utilized by Wi-Fi 6 and 7 nodes. I actually did an unboxing video of the EAP773: th-cam.com/video/xUe986vb8rU/w-d-xo.html However, if you're looking for massive performance, I wouldn't recommend either of these two options. Instead, I would recommend the UniFi U7 Pro. In real-world testing, I achieved 1.6 gigabits per second on a Pixel 7 Pro with the UniFi U7 Pro. The only downside, depending on the individual's perspective and application needs, is that using UniFi access points requires a controller, as they don't have a built-in web interface like the TP-Link EAP lineup. This means you won't be able to configure a UniFi access point without a controller, which gives TP-Link a slight advantage in this regard. However, choosing an access point with a built-in web interface typically only makes sense if you're deploying just one within the environment, and you don't require any advanced features that are offered by the controller. This is one of the reasons why we started providing hosted TP-Link and UniFi controllers to our clients with small environments.
@Exitar15 The main reason I don’t use Omada in my infrastructure is that I only have one TP-Link access point. Don’t get me wrong-I manage these Omada controllers and have deployed many of them on-site for our clients.
Would you recommend the tplink eap660hd or eap773?

Yeah why didn't you use the latest controller software ffs...
