I've been installing eero products for a while now because amazon made them super friendly (note: backend controllable) for their ISP customers. I absolutely hate them, but it comes down more to the way we have implemented them than anything else. They're forced on all new customers, so we're still using modem router combo units, disabling the router, then sending the lowest end eero to every customer, which is in some cases slower than the router built in to the modems. Then actually setting them up either A) forces the customer to have internet to set up their internet, or B) makes me set it up for them with that aforementioned backend access that I may or may not actually be able to get in to (because sometimes I don't have functional cellular service in some of the towns I have to work in, or my login info has expired). Nothing was wrong with being able to log in with a default name and password for service setup, nothing was wrong with using the built in router for basic service especially in small homes or apartments, but instead I'm having to put eeros in the houses of elderly folks that still haven't even considered owning a smartphone.

You want the 6GHz stuff & Wi-Fi 7 mainly for lower latency connections that can actually replace ethernet cables for the consumers and even some prosumers. So, try not to have any concrete walls between your devices & access points. It's becoming more and more like "an access point per room if you want low latency + high speeds" at home and frankly, I'm down for it. Give it maybe about another year (yep, 24H2) and the energy efficiency of the more affordable "buy & go" consumer solutions will settle down OK as well.

That would be interesting, though odds are good the locations you know you want fast wireless is where you will fit your AP anyway even with the slower and longer range AP making that point somewhat less important. I'd be more interested in if it can keep up that sort of data rate against a background of other WiFi 7 traffic everywhere, the contestation for bandspace at least in the UK where houses are small and close together on average is quite noticeable at times.

I'm just happy to see routers that have multiple multi-gig ports. That's the only reason I bought an one of tp-links new wifi 7 routers. Finally had a reason to upgrade from 1 gig to 2 gig GF service.

I have a couple of the Eero Pro 6s, and they do work right out of the box pretty well (lol, though I did NOT sign up for the service; i'm sure i would have been the same level of frustrated as LS had I done so). I've had the two Pro 6 units for a couple years now, and they really (knock wood) have been outstanding. To be clear, these are not for tinkerers. This is for the set-it-and-forget-it, don't-have-time-to-mess-with-them crowd. Nonetheless, they do receive frequent software updates, and I can't remember the last time I've needed to restart the network due to some issue with the mesh units. Who knows how reliable these 7s are (the 6 Pros are much, much smaller), but based on Amazon's track record of reliability with these things (unless I just got lucky), I think if you need or really, really want to early adopt wifi 7, they would be a pretty safe buy.

How much power did it draw during idle and full speed download? That's a small thing I would like to know.

I think Linus missed a critical new feature of 802.11be that being that that devices can now connect to multiple bands simultaneously in 3 modes (for there not technical names), as duplex so one (o rmaybe more) band upload one (or maybe more) band download, all the speed stitching multiple bands together to provide insane download speeds, max range where the AP can send duplicates of the data on multiple bands so that if there is interference on one band in the space of the packet the other may make it through allowing the ap to succesfully send the packet the first time reducing active time, load and sustaining speeds at longer ranges.

Can't wait for a WiFi 7 enabled VR headset. That sweet sweet wireless streaming bitrate.

I love the rated speed to port speed ratio

3:48 What do you mean? It's way easier to see dust on black routers than white ones. You should see my black router; it gets dirty so fast that it's crazy.

Just wondering for testing the max capabilities of a network if there is a way where y'all can host a local speed test server or something equivalent to show the full capability of a device not your local speed test server. Note I understand that in the real world if you are the kind of person who will max this out you will probably be wired or a large scale network admin but it would be awesome.

I thought you were going to connect the APs to each other and see how much speed you could get. Could be an interesting main channel video

I had eero 6s, which were fine, but they overheated too often, and too many functions are either hidden behind a subscription, or non existent in the name of "simplicity" or "user friendly". Switched to an ASUS router previously featured here.

as part of my old job i used to have to walk customers through setting these up over the phone - most brain-numbing task i've ever had to do with that said, the system we used to view a customer's home eero wifi settup was incredibly insightful, and when they worked - oh boy did they work with that said, more often than not they didn't just make ..sense sense

I was not expecting the speed results of wifi 7 (when right next to it)

How is this the first wifi 7 router you've gotten your hands on when the deco be85 from tp-link has been available for months already in north America?

Yes you did see this before look at your review of the 60ghz router you did ages ago

it would be cool if we could use wifi 7's full 16x16 lanes on a laptop for say, wireless video transfer, or wigig like docks.

True even downloading games on the Xbox Series X with a wired 1.4 Gbps internet connection on average the download speeds never even come remotely close to maxing out. Maybe only hitting the high 500 to mid 600 Mbps range during the download

is that the oneplus fold he is using o_0 Good shit. Im very happy with my 10 pro

This is why not doing sponsored reviews is important. Ive never seen anyone on short-circuit be this critical of a products buggy system they always just say "preproduction" or "ya their going to patch that"

It would be nice to get some of the lower bands for wifi at some point. 6Ghz goes through walls even worse than 5Ghz. Good old 2.4 Ghz bands are still the best there we have access to. Something like 1.8Ghz would help us a lot more.

10GB is really nice to have on a Network if your video editing of another machine or backing up a machine to another, 1gb lan is just so slow to this, USB is miles past those speeds today

Yeah, I just bought a wifi 7 router, funny enough getting the network cards is almost impossible though. The only reason I went that route is more I wanted wifi 6e to use with the quest 3 and figured if I am redoing my network I might as well go with something that will last longer.

Part of it being so hard to get stuff is that Wi-Fi 7 is still in draft and not completely ratified seems rather close but still never been to wait really hurt me on my draft N The fact that it's raining draft 7 spec Hardware could very well explain the cost is there still testing it and it hasn't been cost cut down to the bare minimum and they haven't figured out how far they can tweak it produce energy draw xcetera

The official standard for Wifi 7 hasn't been released yet. It's possible for compatibility issues with future devices.

Valve Deckard could use this maybe? Isnt part of the problem with bandwidth for the video not being good? Idk... Just a thought.

I mean WiFi access points being white does make sense because they're usually attached to the wall or ceiling and those are usually painted white

Was the app being restarted tried? cuz like... yeah.. sometimes thats the only way for certain things to be updated/accepted/detected..

Wonder what wireless PCVR would be like on this, assuming we get a headset that supports it.

Insanity if it was utilised properly

Can you review Netduma R3 just release

I currently have mostly WiFi 5 and a few WiFi 6 devices, nothing 6E or above. Usually it's not worth buying the latest WiFi until it's been out for 2 - 3 years.

I have Wi-Fi 6 mesh system and I can't be more happy, gladly accepts older devices as well. No issues. In my ideal condition I have about 600-700mbps both down/up. And according to steam survey, most people still have barely over 50-100mbps download speeds, so in that case, 802.11n / Wi-Fi 4 is still sufficient enough.

I'm actually surprised at the speeds you got with wifi 5. It could be that your office's air is noisy, but on my eero 6e, using my wifi 6(not e) device I get full internet speed 1200+ mbps, so Im surprised you got less. Is this expected for tests from your office or is it to do with the device, such as the other features it supports hogging resources or potentially a worse antenna?

You're surprised that they got lower speeds with wifi 5 than you with wifi 6?

devs def programmed a 'trust me you don't want this' lmao

Ive had a WiFi 7 router for about 6 months now, it’s a TP-Link Deco BE85, with 802.11be a.k.a WiFi 7 Is it not available in North America?

Still using my original Netgear Orbi, and I still need to see the need to upgrade besides the advantage of WiFi 6e/7, mainly because I'm under gigabit connection from the ISP; no point in overspending for internet if I still have not maxed out my current speed, sure is nice to download anything in a matter of seconds than minutes. And still, I can stream media between devices and my PC without any issues. With all that said, WiFi 7 is excellent. I can't wait for 8 or 9 when I am ready to upgrade.

does the power brick have a 110v-240v rating?

Are all the bands non unified?
