Deco BE85 security support ends Sep 2026: worth buying a 3rd one now?

That’s a difficult question and at the end of the day only you can make it. I chose to buy a fourth BE85 about 5 months ago and I don’t regret it. Also, if TP-Link decides to end security updates, then I can install a firewall/router switch between the modem and the Deco router. Next, set all the De

Is TP Link a good replacement for Orbi?

I would check to see which router brands are the ones most frequently hacked. I’m pretty sure TP-Link is up there near the top. These are commonly targeted or found with severe security issues: 1. TP-Link - Often ships with outdated firmware. - Numerous vulnerabilities in web interfaces and UPnP. -

Need your opinion and technical help on wifi mesh system.

For your setup with 800 Mbps FTTP and two floors, mesh is definitely the right call. Single router in garage won't reach bedroom 2 properly. Best options under 600 AUD: TP-Link Deco BE85 (WiFi 7) - 550 for 2-pack. Future-proof, tri-band, 10G port for your FTTP. Place one in garage, one upstairs cent

Gaming Room Help

As long as your gaming room's AC power comes from the same service panel -- and has the same Earth ground -- as the main house, and you're not in a high lightning-risk area, running standard CAT6A UTP CMX will be fine. Use direct burial cable, such as from Syston or TrueCable (and check regarding co

Homelab - какво да използвам като алтернатива за ethernet кабел?

Имай предвид, че читава меш система за такова нещо с 2 сателита (WiFi 7, Tri или Quad-band) ще ти струва около 1000 евро. Всеки сателит отгоре още 500. Примерно Asus ZenWiFi BQ16 BE2500, TP-Link Deco BE85, Amazon eero Max 7... за по-малко от това хич не се занимавай, няма смисъл (казвам го от личен

Need your opinion and technical help on wifi mesh system.

Totally agree that mesh is the way to go. One thing to keep in mind with the brick veneer mentioned earlier: if Node 1 is in the garage, the signal has to punch through an external brick wall just to get to the rest of the house. In that specific layout, the extra cash for WiFi 7 (like the Deco BE85

5gig & Orbi Meah

OP, I would recommend getting a router that had at least one 10 Gbps WAN/LAN port, that way you can take full advantage of your 5 Gbps tier. If you can afford it, get a router with a 10 Gbps WAN/LAN port for Internet and a second 10 Gbps port, that way you can use that second port for wired backhaul

Considering Buying Deco

I bought the Deco BE85 (BE22000) mesh 3 pack system. I live in an older home, with thicker walls, and I’ve been quite pleased with the performance of the BE85 mesh. I get a great signal upstairs, downstairs and even outside.The downsides include the annual subscription for security. Also, they claim
