    GOOD MESH WIFI. Great speed review. I have BE85 and been using it close to 1 mth on viewqwest 10GB plan. I'm still waiting for the SFP+ module so that I can bypass the modem and have 1 less device in my DB.
    Been getting between 6 to 8 GBps down and up thus far.
    The unit are HOT! So I bought 120mm fan and let the deco sit on top of it.

      Interesting that you actually the piece on a fan. I have a number of fans from old computer builds, from 45mm to 140mm and most in quite good shape, so I guess I could handle that bit easily. I don’t like having to put heat in the house and then have to remove it through cooling especially in summer. It’s paying for the power use twice, essentially. I do want those Wi-Fi 7 speeds though, so I guess a sacrifice will be due.
      Right now the highest speed fiber plans in my area are 5 gigabit per second, and they more than triple the price of a gigabit plan. Since I’m not running any Internet servers and my gaming needs are relatively small. I probably won’t upgrade the plan at this time. The main benefit for me of upgrading Wi-Fi would be reliability: my office computer is ~85’ from the modem/router also passing through 4 walls and a floor, so either upgrading to a mesh system or possibly putting ethernet to an old WiFi 6 router in AP mode (~55W) will work for now.
      WiFi 7 may have to wait, hopefully before the advent of WiFi 8! Paying to future-proof technology before you can actually implement it, as in at my house, can just be an expensive process without the best result.

    Hi Alex, Great and very informative review! However, it would be better if you were to include a local speed test in your review as well. As in a device-to-device speed test comparison. This would exclude all other variables that could affect the real performance of these meshes by taking the ISP out of the picture. I think a raw throughput comparison would be really helpful for some people who have servers in their home. Nonetheless great work!

      the XT8 is meant for mesh setup with at least 2 nodes, if you are going with those single router setup then don't get the XT8

    This is interesting...
    I have been trying to get TP Link Mesh system to work, but always had to give up. I run a BE230 main WiFi Router (connected to my ISP Router) and the two RE3000X Extenders with Ethernet Backhaul.
    As long as everything is in AP mode there are no issue, but the moment I try to configure it as a Mesh it keeps losing the connection to the Internet every 2 Minutes. Pretty weird
    My AVM Fritz Mesh system worked just fine, but the WiFi quality there was just not the same as with the TP Link components.🤷‍♂️

    What's the point of having 5gbps service when your wired speed is 1.3gbps? I get around 1.2gbps wired and I'm only paying for 1gbps and using stock equipment.

    • @AlexTeo
      @AlexTeo  2 місяці тому

      none of my test result is based on wired speed, I am not trying to test whether my ISP is giving me the correct speed i subscribed
      the test scenario is to see how much actual speed are you getting under different types of connection and interference

    Hello alex, what tplink switch is compatible with tplink be22000 hb810 wifi7 AP? I have 10gbps plan so does it mean i must get switch that can connect at 10gbps?

    • @AlexTeo
      @AlexTeo  Місяць тому

      it's not a must, the speed will automatically get stepped down to what the switch or port supports. But this means that you are not making good use of your 10gbps plan

    • @Kalimatullah_Yoh1-1.14
      @Kalimatullah_Yoh1-1.14 Місяць тому

      @ yes unfortunately since singtel charge me for additional mesh. 1st additional unit at 17$ pm , 2nd unit at double the price, plus the plan if i get 5gbps - ends up little more expensive than the 10gbps plan. So might as well go for cheaper 10gbps plan.
