Review: Incredible Mesh Router at Excellent Price - If you are looking for a cost-effective router that will put you ahead of the technology time-line, this is it. I was a LinkSys/Cisco fan and I bought this router to replace a pretty decent LinkSys WRT 3200 ACM. The LinkSys acquired some deficiency in the past year of "half-connecting" to just one device, while perfectly connecting to every other device on its 2.4gz and 5.0gz bands. (Half-connecting allowed some, but not all URLs to load). I recently had replaced a LinkSys extender with a TPLink extender because it could not maintain a persistent connection with the LinkSys (another hint the router was going out) and was pleased with its ability to retain its connection... though it seemed I was frequently fighting over channels with my neighbors which was very annoying, having to change them every other week. After researching the market (I looked at Eero, too), I decided this was the one that was budget friendly and buying a more expensive model was not warranted as I'm not a gamer or an extreme streamer - I have 1gz service from Spectrum anyway. I did look for a router that supported USB as I have a couple of USB drives (12gb) for "cloud" storage of my files. This router comes with "Easy Mesh" which I did not pay that much attention to, since the new TpLink extender was doing a nice job (Yes, the two extra SSIDs were a little annoying when connecting devices, but I was OK with that). Setup was pretty easy, though I did want to get into the configuration to set fixed IP addresses for wired and non-wired devices in my home. All that worked perfectly fine. The only irritation I had was LinkSys uses the Gateway of 192.168.1.1 and TpLink chose 192.168.0.1. So all my fixed IP address devices had to be reconfigured (I have a WD Cloud and Canon and Samsung printers)... all of which were time-consuming to figure out how to get them reconnected to the BE9300. Then came the big surprise! I went into the setup on the TPLink "extender" and the BE9300 recognized it and "hijacked" it! The extender is no longer an extender (though it can be configured as one), but it turned out to be a mesh access point. All of a sudden, the 2.4gz and 5.0gz networks on the extender (TPLink RE550) were greyed-out! The BE9300 turned it into a mesh access point! Being a little skeptical, I cranked up m favorite WiFi phone app (WiFi Overview) and walked thru the house (3600sf). This app displays a graphical indication of signal strength in a parabola display of all SSIDs nearby. Since the extender was now a mesh access point, I only had TWO SSIDS (one for 2.4 and one for 5.0) and of course, two "sub" SSIDs. As I walked further away from the BE9300, I could see the signal strength of the mesh unit growing larger and larger. Like any mesh network, it apparently switched to the mesh access point seamlessly on my phone... as advertised without any degradation of visual download speed.. Additionally, a lot of reviews on this product indicated they were seeing increases in download speed, so I did quite a few speed tests with several different test sites. Since my Spectrum 1gz service is still copper, I knew I'd never see 1gz speed, but the top speed with the LinkSys on and off the wire was about 910gz-920gz... not quite a 10% "loss", but still respectable. With the BE9300, I am consistently seeing over 950gz, so yes, I'll agree there is a slight increase in download speed. Another plus here is the BE9300 is Wifi 7 enabled. Yes, currently, the only WiFi device is the iPhone 17 pro, but again, its nice to be ahead of the technology curve rather than be current or behind it. In summary, I have to admit, the BE9300 exceeded my expectations, as I was not really in the market for a mesh system, but almost, by accident, I have one (I glossed over the "Easy Mesh" part of the BE9300). Combined with the slight increase in speed and the WiFi 7 capability already being there, I highly recommend this guy if you want to stay in the $200 range (vs. $400 range) when looking at a new or replacement router. And I got this during desertcart's fall "sale" and it happened to have a $20 coupon from TpLink which made it a very nice deal.
Review: Very Advanced; Very Nice! - UPDATE: 23 May, 2024 Now it's been awhile. I have to write: If something is messed up, it's NEVER the EAP225 WiFi units or this thing! It's been months since it's been rebooted! We have enough off-grid solar so the internet stuff and the comp room can stay off-grid all the time. It never gets rebooted nowadays and it's always there and it doesn't mess up! It has a gigabit (24 port) switch and two (8 port) 2.5 gigabit switches plugged into it. A total of 4 NAS's; three of them 2.5 gigabit dual LAN's; one with dual gigabit LAN's. And three computers, all 2.5 gigabit. And the Yeacomm 5G gateway is also 2.5 gigabit. Nothing bothers this thing. I'm still not using its WiFi, because of those EAP225's, which are also great. I read a few reviews, before, raving about this thing's WiFi, though and people write that it works great. The wife is Korean and she watches Korean soap opera's all day. We usually download way over a terabyte a month here. The Yeacomm connects at about 400 megabits down and 110 to 130 megabits up. ___________________________________________________________________ This runs a whole bunch of stuff - WiFi and LAN - typically about 15 devices. I'm not going to rate the Wifi because I'm not going to use it yet. 1) I have two EAP225's; they're VERY strategically located and they mesh with each other. Unfortunately they won't mesh with this thing. 2) I don't have anything else that will even do WiFi 7 yet. I got this mainly for the five 2.5 GbE ports - one WAN and 4 LAN's! I've also got a Yeacomm (Speednet) NR610 (also a very nice, but expensive device), and my internet is blazingly fast! Just very snappy. Internet tasks are usually as fast as doing stuff locally on the computer. You can easily tell when it's the website that's slow. That Yeacomm has a 2.5 GbE port and I was drooling at the thought of getting that 2.5 GbE speed to the LAN. (I also have a gigabit switch, a PoE switch [for the EAP225'sand the Magic Jacks that only do 10 MbE], and two 2.5 GbE switches.) Really nice that all my stuff plugs into this! The WEB interface on this device is a thing of beauty! Everything is very logically laid out, most changes, you don't have to reboot for, and if you know your network stuff, you'll find it nice and easy to use. If you don't know your network stuff, you're still in luck! It took its time communicating with the Yeacomm (LTE CPE Modem) (and a bunch of other devices) on the first boot - maybe 3 minutes or 4 minutes - but it configured itself very well! I have two Magic Jack lines and those didn't work right away. It took some hair-pulling-out time to straighten it out. But I've had one way audio problems with those before. This time, this router had the provisions to fix it (on one of them only.) That's not this router's fault; it's just the way it is. You need to forward a range of ports on two different devices and you can't. It took a very long time to get fixed. It was like a combination lock. Turns out the final step was some settings in the Yeacomm. The Magic Jacks now talk directly to the cell phone tower. One of them works perfectly and the other one only has one way audio when calling [mostly] cell phones. If I had another 2.5 GbE port on the Yeacomm, I could do it, I think, but as long as I can get calls on both lines and call out on one of them, I'm happy. Everything else worked like a champ with settings that this router came up with all on its own! The only thing I changed (not counting the Magic Jack settings) is making a bunch of MAC | IP reservations. When you set it up, you get a light show for awhile. Then the lights can be turned on or turned off with a WEBUI switch. You can also set up a night time mode and have them on in the daytime and off at night, specifying the times. You can plug a USB hdd into the USB port and use it as a very fast, very big network share. It's almost like having an NAS. It's been totally stable and reliable so far. It's a lot of money. I had to talk myself into it. I shopped for about a week. That should tell you something. Now that I've gotten to use it, I consider it well worth the money! I give their tech support 5 stars, not because of this thing, but because I've used their tech support in the past and I already KNOW it's exceptionally good! I have a lot of other TP-Link stuff. Advanced, hi-end stuff. Half of the 12 connected devices shown in the pic.

### ⭐ Super fast, range so-so, TERRIBLE reliability
*by R***M on May 2, 2025*

(Note ... this review applies to both the BE550 and the BE900. I started with the BE550, and when it didn't work for me, I tried to upgrade to the BE900, but it had the same issues). My eero6 pro router died on me, so I decided if I was going to replace it, I might as well upgrade at the same time. I read good reviews about this router on WireCutter and the price was reasonable, so it seemed like a perfect fit. Setting up the router was easy, and the app to control the router is decent (I prefer it to Eero). I have gigabit fiber, and my iPhone 16 and M4 iPad Pro were both getting blazing speed. Initially, I was super happy. However, my wifi devices started dropping connectivity. My iPad would only drop for a few seconds at a time, but my iPhone would completely stop working for extended periods (my wife's phone too). It was not a range issue as I was 20 feet from the router with no obstructions. I could get it to work again by turning airplane mode on and off, so I initially ignored it. Then my internet connected devices started randomly disconnecting. My nano leaf devices would stop working completely. My HomePods would disappear from the network. About half of my HomeKit light switches and outlets stopped working as well. Another issue was at the end of the day when my iPhone battery was dying (I usually go to sleep with about 40% left). The culprit was searching for a cellular signal (I barely have cellular access at my house). I eventually got fed up and returned the router and bought a refurbished Eero 6 Pro and instantly everything started working again. It is a little sad to see my download speeds drop from 900MB/s down to 200MB/s, but the truth is that on my phone and iPad, it is really not noticeable at all. I am a computer engineer, and I am pretty good with computer equipment. However, I find dealing with computer networking to require a bit of black magic, and nothing is more frustrating than unreliable networking equipment. I would much rather have slower and reliable. I wonder if there was something specific about my home and devices that was causing the problem as I can't believe that these units really are that bad.
