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.

The Deco BE 11000 is a tri-band mesch system that covers true 6GHz, 5GHz and 2.4 GHz and is fully backward compatible with older devices. This system uses Wi-Fi 7 technology. After installing the system and updating the app, I received a message that this unit now meets the universal Wi-Fi 7 standards, so should be compatible with future Wi-Fi 7 devices. You set up your mesh system using the Deco app. I will say, setting up the system was super easy with the app and only took a few minutes to have all the nodes positioned and connected to the internet. After things were set up, the app automatically downloaded the firmware updates to each of the units. The whole thing was just following the app directions. Of course, the hard part is moving all of your wireless devises from an existing network to the new Deco network. I guess I didn't realize how many wireless devices I have in my home until I started reconnecting. At least the Deco BE 11000 allows for up to 200 devices, so there should be plenty of available spots for people like me that have a lot of wireless devices. I have used this setup for several days and so far, have not had any issues with connectivity or slow internet speeds. I have been totally happy with this system so far. If you need better coverage and faster wireless speed, I think this is a really good option to consider.

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.

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.ExperienceIn 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.

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.

Although Wi-Fi 7 devices are not yet readily available, TP-Link has positioned themselves as an early-adopter of Wi-Fi 7 devices for both home and office. So the logical question here is: Do I need Wi-Fi 7? The easy answer is - if you like speed - Yes you need Wi-Fi 7.I use an Apple iPhone for my personal device. I have an iPhone 14 Pro. However, it does not support Wi-Fi 7 or even W-Fi 6E for that matter. Most device including the iPhone 11 and newer only support Wi-Fi 6 - not 6E or 7. It is rumored that the iPhone 16 Pro will have Wi-Fi 7 capabilities - and you'll notice the difference. Moving from Wi-Fi 5 to 6 only provided incremental benefits. OK - enough on Wi-Fi. Know that version 7 is better and faster, yet currently not many devices is support it. So if ...

Know that version 7 is better and faster, yet currently not many devices is support it. So if you want to be future-proofed, get Wi-Fi 7 now. The biggest gains are for gamers at home - with a substantial boost for in-home networking speeds. I saw it personally on my device as well.So if faster speeds are what you're after - maybe its better security? In this upgrade TP-Link has enhanced their security software HomeShield to version 3.0, adding more features and 2 exclusive apps for comprehensive protection.Protect Comprehensively - HomeShield provides comprehensive advanced security features. Advertisement blocker blocks annoying ads and pop-ups and prevents data tracking. Intrusion protection protects your home network and applications against external attacks and eliminates vulnerabilities. For those with higher security requirements, HomeShield provides VPN Client.Protect All Devices - HomeShield protects all kinds of home network devices, including phones, computers, TVs, game consoles, and other IoT devices. Protection starts instantly once they connect to the gateway. Simply configure the gateway and achieve whole-home network security.Protect Everywhere - Unlike most network security services that only work at home, HomeShield maintains its safeguards away from home. With pre-installed apps, your kids' mobile devices remain secure and under parental control on the go. Parents are able to monitor apps on their kids' phones, further manage payment methods, and monitor their screen time for a safer and better online experience.Overall - I'm really liking this Wi-Fi mesh solution and have been totally impressed with the ease of setup and speed while using. I'm looking to supplement it with some TP-Link cameras now too!

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.OverviewSetup was overall a breeze, though I did have a hiccup ... MoreI 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.

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.OverviewSetup 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 speedsCONS- 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 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 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.

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!

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 Deco system has a nice streamline design, while not having a large footprint when setup in your home. The units are roughly 7 inches in height and around 4.5 inches in width. For those coming off an Apple Wi-Fi Extreme series router/time-capsule, it’s very similar in size and white. No additional color options available. The Pro Pack comes with 3 total units to create a nice mesh throughout the home while using multi-directional antennas to aide in coverage and help eliminate dead-zones in the home. Packaging is simple as you have your 3 units, along with power supplies for each and a single LAN cable for initial setup. Each unit supports all of the latest Wi-Fi 7 (be) and below available, have 2 5Gbps/1 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN Ports, accompanied single USB port, reset ...

Each unit supports all of the latest Wi-Fi 7 (be) and below available, have 2 5Gbps/1 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN Ports, accompanied single USB port, reset button, and support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS).Setup is done via the TP-Link Deco app, which is laid out very nicely and walks you through every step of the way to get you going in a breeze. Initially, you will need to create or sign onto your account to go through setup. Once everything is setup, there’s a homepage in the app where you can see a summary of your network status and number of clients and devices connected to your home network. You can even add various rules to help protect your children and limit internet active hours/use via TP-Link’s Parental Controls. Parental controls allow for web service monitoring, building out user profiles for each individual and tie their devices to that profile. The user profile can then be set to limit, allow, or time control what’s available to each user to develop healthy digital habits.The AI driven mesh system uses simple intelligence to monitor the network environment it has been setup in and adjust Wi-Fi radius output signals and speeds throughout your home to provide the best service capable. These internal high-performance antennas may boost their signal at times to cover more areas in the home when the additional speeds are needed. The updated design allows for not only multiple up/down streams from a Decco unit, but each unit can pair up and determine the best stream to provide better speeds for the user.The USB port is important to note as there has been a lot of interest in maintaining your own data at home. This port does support Apple Time Machine use, but goes a step further. The USB port enables you to connect any USB storage to your Decco unit and create Network Attached Storage (NAS) for the whole home acting as a server.Overall, really happy with the setup and how easily this integrated into my home network having used other Wi-Fi 7 systems that set easily and suffer from quality of service at times. The amount of options for securing and customizing your network settings, parental controls are a big plus with helping create and develop healthy internet habits for children.
