G5AR gateway, without ethernet vs with ethernet. should i get a router?
Yes, get a router connect it to Ethernet and move it where you have the best wifi signal while leaving the gateway where you have the best cell signal. Everyone has been complaining about wifi disconnects so you will kill two birds with one stone. Fyi: I am using the g5ar connected to a be550 with a

Suggestions for average gaming and family Netflix
Wi-Fi 7 routers like the TP-Link Archer BE3600 or BE550 are now fairly budget friendly. Last I checked they were around $100. That's going to offer some future-proofing with better multi-device handling than Wi-Fi 6, though most phones/TVs aren't fully Wi-Fi 7 yet. I'd say skip high-end Wi-Fi 7 unle

New router up and running
I've had this router for just over a week, and as you say, it is easy to set up ect. Done a fair bit of messing around with it, first off I tried it as a Mesh satellite wired into the YouFibre WiFi7 (Sagecom) router, all worked well Mesh wise. Now, the BE550 is the main router with another TP Link r

City Fibre Router suggestions?
I've got the BE550, no issues with it whatsoever. Currently running it with Nufibre and on 2.3Gbps symmetrical. Ethernet speed tests max that out without a hitch and WiFi 7 can hit around 1.5Gbps down, 2Gbps up. Running a NAS off of one port, a dedicated torrent PC off of another and a home mesh kit

ASUS BE9400 vs TPLINK BE550
BE550 applies to several routers so you’d need to be more specific. That said.. we run TP-Link BE9700 and BE9300 (Both are BE550 routers btw) in a 3 story 3800 sq/ft house on a 1 acre property. Same SSIDs so whenever I move around my mobile devices reconnect seamlessly as needed. Fantastic signal st

Considering to buy TP Link Archer AX10 - AX1500 Router and use as AP.
At that price the AX10 is tempting, but it is very much an entry level WiFi 6 device. It works for light browsing, but once you have video calls, streaming, or multiple phones connected, it can start to feel inconsistent. I ran a setup like this behind a fiber router and spent more time adjusting

Boost WiFi 7 is garbage.
I did exactly the same thing, upgraded from 1gb to 3gb but they didn't upgrade me from the wifi 6, my wi-fi was still just inconsistent. The tech mentioned they have been having problems with the the firmware upgrades on the wifi 7. I bought the Archer BE550 Pro so I can have more options with confi
