Need more reviews like these. Testing one of the most important aspect of a router which is its performance. Very thorough going through each frequency instead of just generalizing how well it performs.
Performance isn't everything, you should also take a look at the stability of the network coz these mesh systems can occur some dropouts and disconnections, also got to be aware of some firmware updates that can end up breaking the stability of a mesh system possibly even further. So these caveats must also be taken into consideration over a certain period of time, rather then just taking a look at singular day of testing.
Great review! Would be "fun" to revisit in 3-6months after x amount of firmware upgrade to see how have been able to improve in the categories you tested. Also it could be interesting to see some of these results if you played around with placement of your router (different angles on same spot), to see how it affects attennas. But big thumbs up from Denmark for your great work
definitely need long term testing on these expensive routers. it's nice that they're fast, but what's the point if they can't maintain a constant connection and keep crashing? i've learned my lesson.
Chris, old country boy from the southwest here. I love tech and I love to watch your videos. You not only deliver great reviews that are useful, but your whole personality and delivery is really enjoyable to watch and learn! May I ask one small question you might get asked a lot? Almost everything I have that is IoT (not TV's or receivers), like camera's, TP-Link switches, smart lights, even my CNC in the shop outside, all require 2.4GHz (my house is only 1700sf and the shop would be 30 feet through 2 walls). It looked like the TP-Link system and the ASUS systems were the best for this. That's what I need the most to keep these things working, especially the TP-Link switches outside. Can I ask your input on these? Regardless if you have time to answer, thank you Chris and God Bless! Keep up the awesome videos!
I work for fiber company and i always recommend the eero for residential use, best bang for your buck and great range it is even great for small businesses most recent devices will connect with ease
Thank you so much for this! It was a huge help to me deciding on which network to set up, we went with the Eero & we love it! No WiFi dead depots in the house & it increased our overall speed two fold!
I have been needing to get a Mesh WiFi system and these have all been ones I have been watching. Your info here on them will definitely help me in choosing which I may decide to get.
Hey Chris !! It's a very informative video, but I guess everyone missed out on one thing that you mixed up the TP Link 2.4 Ghz result with Amazon Eero and Linksys Atlas 2.4 Ghz results with Tp Link Deco.
Has anybody ever told you that you sound like E-40? Such a soothing voice. The entire time I was enjoying your video I felt like the narrator was E-40.
I did a similar test back during covid when my wife and I were WFH and her office was on the other side of the house as our main modem/router. The ASUS AXE11000 absolutely crushed every other high end wifi6/E system I purchased. The Amlifi Alien was really good but severely lacking in features vs the ASUS and can't easily add another mesh unit. The AX11000 was suprisingly a dud which I couldn't figure out given how it looked very similar and has same number of antennas as the AXE11000. The real bang for buck hero though was the ASUS AX86U. Didn't have the distance of the AXE11000 but at a fraction of the price and still super fast 6E speeds, it makes for a great mesh node if you have the AXE11000 or 16000.
Thanks Chris, great work as usual. It might be helpful to put a chart up comparing last year's or oldeer winners against these--is it worth upgrading kind of question for some of us.
What about a video about solo Wifi devices as in your video a couple of years ago: Wifi 6 Gaming Router Shootout - The Best Gaming Routers (Netgear, Asus TP-Link, & More) ? Would be really good to get an updated list.
Excellent information to help out with that new router hunting job. I’d like to see the same testing done for those users that can get away with a 1 router, non mesh setup.
Just a heads up. For the 2.4Ghz chart for the Deco you put up the one for the Eero Pro in its place by mistake. Also likewise for the Linksys Atlas you you have the Deco's 2.4Ghz chart for it. :P
hey chris what an incredible mesh router review. I just purchased the tp-link deco 75 and i'll install it tomorrow. I am interested with how this systems connects to my cisco switch and other systems---i will find out....
Thank you for your work on this but, unfortunately, my experience was different from yours. Purchased both the Orbi RBKE963 and your best overall, TP-Link Deco XE200. The performance was comparable within 10ft but as I ranged away to the known trouble spots in my home (very familiar with them since we have lived here 23 years) the TP-Link could not keep up. Also, my iOT devices definitely preferred the NETGEAR over the TP-Link. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.
The Deco XE200 uses auto sensing ports. You don't have to use the 10Gb port for internet, so you can decide to use it for something else like a NAS server.
It would have been nice had you compared user interfaces with each ones you weren’t specific on that aspect of each router as a parent I’d be interested in the parental controls etc
What an amazing coverage, thank you so much Chris! The eero pro 6e is kind of where I'm at with my budget. I'm wandering if you had a chance to also look at the deco xe75. Its price is comparable to the eero. I'm curious about how they'd fare up in speed at the mesh access point.
You should do a video on the best budget Wi-Fi 6E router with the best options for hacking, you would have a very popular video, your UA-cam channel would really grow... Thanks for the info. Nice video!
Hmmm, I've tried half of these and Orbi is still the best. I have the Orbi 860 and cover over 6000 Sq ft and it's flawless. Nothing intermittent. I can go 2 houses down and still have wifi (though weak) on my iPhone. Its bulky and ugly but it's performed the best and handles the most components. I should say I have 3 satellites off the router as well.
Awesome review Chris :) Besides the Linksys Atlas which other mesh systems supports separate SSIDs for the 2.4, 5 & 6 Ghz bands in your testing? This is specially important for older 2.4 Ghz devices that don't play nice with a single SSID that has both 2.4 & 5 Ghz bands
it would be interesting to see the video again but with a ethernet backhaul. I think the Asus would be best over all as with that. Also you showed the eero results for the tp-link 2.4gz :)
Been waiting for this time of year from you! Love the channel. I’m looking to update my Wi-Fi from my eero pro 2nd gen, as I just updated to gigabit ethernet. I’m trying to decide on a new mesh system. Looking at these 2.4 ghz speeds and not having any 6e devices, should I stick with a Wi-Fi 6 router system and save some money? I will have a wired backhaul between each router in a 2200 sq ft ranch and plan to have roughly 80 devices connected in my smart home. I was thinking about going with the Asus pro but thinking I may not need it now. Any input would be appreciated.
Thank you Chris, it seemed to me that the dialogue and the charts being displayed were mismatched, making the video confusing. After several months, I would hope you would have fixed this. It's nice to get glowing reviews, but ...
How many devices can these systems handle and are they good for home full of ioT devices. I can't cannot connect some of my smartphone devices unless I can be sure my phone is on 2.4ghz does that rule out nest and eero?
Great review. Quick observation…some of the slide were titled wrong. You were talking about one brand and showing another brand’s slide. Primarily on the 2.4 charts.
From your experience, Chris, what Mesh Router would you choose for extending my AT&T Fiber Internet? I'm leaning towards the TP-Link Deco and the Asus ZenWifi Pro but I'm not sure which to go forward with so I am questioning your expertise and prior experiences. Which would you recommend for my situation please let me know?
great video, but at 7:35 you have the wrong title for the hardware, you show Amazon Eero instead of TP Link, and on the Linksys system you have the TP link graphic.....on all the 2.4ghz slides it's wrong pretty much
I had issues with the Linksys Altas 6E max and worked with Linksys for months to try and fix the issues. After 6+ months they asked me to return the units for a refund as their engineers could not figure out how to fix the issue. Issue was that the nodes tend to send a invalid ip address to my devices. This was fixed by a reboot of the system but would comeback in a day to a week. Also kept having issues with nodes connecting to the parent node instead of the closest which cause speeds to dramatically go down even when manually setting each node to connect to the closest node. Not sure if Linksys was able to fix this or not.
Did he mention what his home Internet is that he's paying for? I think I missed it. It would help to get a base lane and % performance to what I should be expecting based on my speeds
He setup a dedicated Speed Test Server on his network, so his testing took the internet out of the equation. This lets you see how the throughput is impacted by various distances, obstructions and mesh loss independent of an internet bottleneck. The loss % can be applied to where your internet bottleneck is located: NIC, Modem, DSP, or Internet Target. IE, if you pay for multi-gig internet, but your pc nic is only 1G; the max speed will be 1G. Distance Testing: End Point > Base Node > Speed Test Server Mesh Access Point: End Point > Child Node > Base Node > Speed Test Server. I think he had the meshed Child Nodes connected via Wireless Backhaul, otherwise the Orbi and ASUS 2.5G Wired Backhaul would have blown the others away since they would be limited to 1G physical ports.
just curious, did you use just one unit from each of these systems for these tests? Also did you do any testing using the wired backhaul (for those that were capable)?
Thanks for this review :) Does the TP-Link configuration app and web interface to the router allow separating the 3 bands into 3 networks? I assume “yes” since you showed speed data from all 3 bands. Thanks!
Thanks brother I was on the fence about Asus and tp link. I tried the Google one it was terrible for me. I ended up getting tp link going to set it up soon
I'm debating between the same 2 options; how is the TP-Link working for you? I currently have a Linksys MX4000 series, but have to reset it almost daily now.
Good info, tried the Asus and Linksys options and both got out performed by a single Netgear Nighthawk at every frequency and range! Just wish it didn’t look like a stupid crab lol
I totally watched the video. But I still wonder what would be the best when I have three floors of oddly shaped house...Not alot of places to put access points. Thoughts? Is 4 access points too many? I have to keep the main router in the basement.
I tell most people to start our small with a 2 pack. Then add more as necessary. If you have a dead zone place another access point nearby to cover that area.
Hey Chris awesome video man and thank you. One question please: I purchased the Motorola Q14 Wifi Mesh Router. I connected the first thru the moto sync app with out any hiccups. The second one I want to place it upstairs but I can't figure it out. My Xfinity modem is on the first floor of the house and the number one Motorola Q14 is connected via Ethernet Cable with no problem. Again, how can I connect second router without the Ethernet Cable? Thank you. Cheers From Sunny Warm Puerto Rico
I recently upgraded my Spectrum internet to 1 GIG and i got the Spectrum wifi 6E router. The wireless speeds was decent at over 500mbps. Only problem my 2.4ghz devices e.g. security sensors, cameras, dimmers, switches and computers/laptops with Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC couldn't recognize the SSID network. This was irrigating because I spoke to Spectrum and they wont let me get the old router in which all of my smart home devices worked plus the speeds was a decent 400mbps.
That happened recently to my friend. They contacted Spectrum Support who put her 6E Router into a temporary internal mode which allowed her 2.4 GHz devices to connect. I believe the router reverted (or was placed) back to it's "normal" operating mode after a few hours (24?). She hasn't had any issues with her existing 2.4 GHz devices since connected. I advised her to insure any new IoT devices are 5G compatible. I know this is anecdotal, but I wanted to let you and others know that Spectrum Support should be able to assist.
Very good video, thanks a million; PLEASE do another video comparing Parental Control between all. Parents are watching and want to buy routers not based on speed only but on Parental control; Netgear is bad because we have to pay for it.
are you sure you had the speed right for the Linksys Max 6E? There website and TS advises this model is only AXE8400, not AXE11000. Would this make much a difference for a 3-level home?
Hey brother what's up what is the best and fastest router by Verizon FiOS is it the "cr1000a" or the "g3100".... I have the monthly subscription of the 1 gig speed
Chirs most of my IOT devices run only on 2.4Ghz. What is the benefit of getting a mesh over keeping my current AC 1900 router and range extenders? My devices have always had connectivity issues. Is getting the ASUS worth it for me? Does the TP Link have 2FA for remote log in?

I have the Asus ZenWifi Pro ET12 and have not been disappointed. Happy to see it did well in your testing.
Same here. I was a Deco fan until they got compromised by the Chinese government.
Thankyou for taking time to make this video, it was by far the most useful video I've seen on this subject for my buying decision!
I bought Asus last year because of your reviews. Very informative. Keep doing your thing bro 👍🏾

Thanks for the info Chris,they are upgrading my area to fiber optic so I was actually researching this exact topic.
Thank you for the awesome review! I'm between the Orbi and Deco.
An absolutely excellent review! Anything less than two 2.5Gbps ports for internet service and backhaul is like putting regular gas in a Bugatti.
Except most of us can't even buy a Bugatti.
The best available is a shitty old Datsun 120Y.
So premium fuel would just be a waste.

Did he mention what his home Internet is that he's paying for? I think I missed it. It would help to get a base lane and % performance to what I should be expecting based on my speeds
He setup a dedicated Speed Test Server on his network, so his testing took the internet out of the equation. This lets you see how the throughput is impacted by various distances, obstructions and mesh loss independent of an internet bottleneck. The loss % can be applied to where your internet bottleneck is located: NIC, Modem, DSP, or Internet Target. IE, if you pay for multi-gig internet, but your pc nic is only 1G; the max speed will be 1G.
Distance Testing: End Point > Base Node > Speed Test Server
Mesh Access Point: End Point > Child Node > Base Node > Speed Test Server.
I think he had the meshed Child Nodes connected via Wireless Backhaul, otherwise the Orbi and ASUS 2.5G Wired Backhaul would have blown the others away since they would be limited to 1G physical ports.
