  From a cost/quality/ease of setup TP Link Deco’s are definitely in the running. I have 3 in a 2600 sq/ft 1 floor house with no problems. Granted mine are all hardwired in AP mode but I imagine they would still work well in mesh.

  Regarding cloud based mesh systems, we have a Tp-Link Deco BE63. It seems to pass traffic on the local network, and even lets me manage the system from the app locally, when the Internet is down.

  I have the be63 system! I have 3 “nodes” with 1 acting as my main router. I still get firmware updates with new features/bug fixes. The mesh works perfectly fine even with older 2.4ghz only devices like switches and stuff. Range is also very good. I have 1,250mbps internet service and I get around 800-1000 when connected to the 5ghz band (since 2.4 is almost always slower) but if I connect to the MLO network (WiFi 7) I get nearly max speeds my isp offers. The system also picks the best node to connect to and best band. It does a decent job at that. My only “compliant” atm is that they take a bit to introduce features that are requested. Like it took them a HOT ass minute to implement manual WiFi channel selections. If you got questions if it has specific features lmk :)

  yeah its a weird implementation and poorly explained. in general, it seems like loop prevention features and spanning tree protocols are incompatible with Decos, and some users have even found that some TP link switches still dont work even after switching off loop prevention. unless there are more details about the internal workings of these switches (unlikely, because TP link could deem it "proprietary information"), we probably wont know why that is the case.

  r/HomeNetworking · Can't decide between EERO 7 or TP-Link Deco 7 Pro BE63 mesh wifi →2026-07-01T18:40:49

  I just switched from the Eero 6E pro that had a mix of wireless and wired backhaul and I was dealing with the wired node disconnecting randomly at times. I bought the be63 and eero pro 7 to try compare the two routers, esp with the discounts on the eero pro 7 with trade in, however I found the eero pro 7's speed to be quite inconsistent and slower whereas the be63 had remarkably good speeds, reliablity, and connection stability so far. I also apprecaite being able to change the setting of which node a static device should connect to if I choose. In the end I returned the eero 7 pro and be 63 and bought the deco be13000 at costco since that was on sale. The be13000 appears to have just as great performance as the be63 for me, perhaps slightly better range, but otherwise very similar. I dont think I'll purchase into the Eero experience again after the instability I experienced for many months on my 6e pro.

  The benefits of a UniFi UDR7 for your use case: * Ability to create separate SSIDs (and VLANs) for IoT/Smart devices. This can be beneficial when attempting to deal with finicky devices that don't fully support the latest WiFi standards, without downgrading network security or performance for your trusted devices. * Much better overall network control, security options, monitoring and management without being forced to use a cloud service (but a cloud service is available for use for remote management, if desired.) * Full range of switches, APs, cameras and sensors manageable from a single console for when you move into a bigger home. * Excellent community support. The benefits of a Deco BE63: * Slightly lower initial cost. * Among the most powerful WiFi APs in its price range. * Easily extend WiFi range by adding additional Deco stations using wireless mesh (but at reduced performance vs using wired Ethernet backhaul, like a traditional AP, and no integration with switches or other TP-Link network devices). * Simple, basic network configuration, monitoring and management via an app and TP-Link's cloud servers. (If TP-Link decides to sunset the Deco product and shut down their servers, the mesh would still run but there would be no way to manage or configure it.) * Community support can be hit-or-miss.

  I do know about those. They really would honestly only be good if you have Wi-Fi 6E capable devices. Otherwise, I feel like the BE25s give you a more balanced system, although they don't have the 6GHZ band. You could also look at a set of BE63s, which would be your best bet, though they are significantly over your budget.

  Yep. Essentially the two nodes that service the main floor are wired. The wireless one is solely to service a place in the house that is hard to reach without putting a dedicated node up there. It also opens up the solution that if I ever do need more coverage, popping an extra wired node later anywhere in the basement with easier wiring is a breeze. Doubt it will be necessary, but its an option. I really like the fact that each node has 4 ports.

  At least, the wired node can fully dedicate its Wi-Fi functions to servicing clients. That’s a good thing.

  Glad one vendor does. It appears the devices that run into this issue wants to talk (aka maybe looking up DNS) and gets so busy that even using local ip address does not get a response since all of communications is in the cloud.

  When everyone is home: 2 smart TV's 5 smart phones 2 tablets, 3 laptops 3 desktops (two wireless) 1 smart watch I would say that is a healthy amount but they are spread across 2700+ sq feet, which is where the spread of the mesh really helps. The main node is centered around 1TV, 2 phones, smart watch and a tablet. The wired backhaul probably the majority of the rest. The wireless backhaul node takes care of my "man cave", two gaming PC's a TV, and my phone or tablet when I am there. So far not a single hiccup in terms of latency or speed that a human would notice. Testing the wireless backhaul on its own showed only a few ms of latency difference compared to connecting to the more far away/slower speed wired node, but increased throughput by 4x (from 200 to 800mbps).

  I have one node wired and one wireless. The difference is a few milliseconds with the same speeds. I am capped at 1gbps down and 40mbps up anyways, so its nowhere near stressing the router's 2.5gbps limits.

  r/TpLink · Ongoing Deco XE75 / BE63 IoT Disconnects – Looking for Beta Firmware 1.4.6 / 1.1.8 or Real Fix →2025-12-16T20:03:00

  I recently bought the Deco BE63 and I had certain IoT devices like a Leviton Decora switch and Carro Smart Fan lose connection or not be able to connect. Giving errors like wrong password, or it can't find the network. Do you think this is related? I did have some success by asking my neighbor to disable their 40mhz channel-width for 2.4ghz. There is a lot of interference as I live in a city. I am only having issues with these IoT 2 devices not connecting with Deco though. I tried other dual-band Wifi 7 routers; Netgear Orbi, Amazon Eero, and Asus Zenwifi, and these devices stayed connected fine. And my old wifi was Google Nest Pro Wifi and it connected fine with that as well. So it definitely seems to be an issue with the Deco BE63.

  Hey OP, thank you for this mega thread. I'm dealing with an issue with my new BE63 (another name is BE11000). I added it into my current X55 pro pack, replaced the main X55 with the new BE63, everything else stay the same. ONT > Main Deco > **TL-SG105-M2** unmanaged > 3 satellite Decos **TL-SG105-M2** also connect > ***TL-SG116*** unmanaged switch ***TL-SG116*** also connect > TL-SG108 unmanaged switch & Other devices, (and previously there was an TL-SG105E managed switch connected to this ***TL-SG116*** as well) This topology has worked for me for nearly a year without issues, but right when I setup the BE63 as main Deco, I started to experienced network loss suddenly, like everything went down abruptly (all satellites blinking red), wired devices also disconnected, my phone keeps switching on/off wifi. I thought having 2 switches connected to the ***TL-SG116*** causing issue so I removed TL-SG108 out and the network has been good for a week. Until this morning when I got the same issue again. This time I removed the ***TL-SG116*** out of the network but still, so I reset everything again and put back the X55 pro as main Deco and removed the BE63. I also replaced TL-SG105E with the TL-SG108. It currently works and I hope it stays stable cause this topology has been working fine for me. Back to the BE63, the reason why I replaced the TL-SG105E managed switch is because it has loop prevention feature and other switches are unmanaged which I checked each of them on Tplink website and they don't mention loop prevention feature. I also saw that the BE63 has **Wireless and Wired Combined Backhaul** as the BE95. I really don't understand why they have that combined backhaul if it's prone to network loop issue like that. And do Tplink switches with Loop Prevention feature are not suitable for wired backhaul? Thanks again
