Wi-Fi 7 is here, and it’s not just a fancy new label—it’s a game-changer for the digital age. Think of it as the supercharged version of Wi-Fi that lets you stream, game, and browse without the dreaded buffering circle.


It (Wi-Fi 7) achieves this through clever tricks like Multi-Link Operation (MLO), which juggles multiple bands at once for faster and steadier connections, and 4K-QAM, a techy term for cramming even more data into your network’s pipelines. Whether it’s the latest Apple gadgets or Microsoft’s cutting-edge PCs, Wi-Fi 7 is what those shiny toys have been waiting for.
TP-Link is diving headfirst into this new frontier with three new wireless routers: the Deco BE5000 and Deco BE3600 Mesh Systems and the Archer BE3600 Router. These aren’t just your average routers—they’re more like turbocharged command centers for your home network.
For the record, these are not TP-Link’s first Wi-Fi 7. The company has been turning out Wi-Fi 7 routers like nobody’s business. I already own two of them, btw. Anyhoo, keep going to a breakdown of what each model has to offer.
Deco BE5000: The Blanket That Covers Your Wi-Fi Woes

- Blazing Speeds: Up to 5 Gbps of combined speed means your entire house can stream, game, and doom-scroll simultaneously without any buffering tantrums.
- Device Overload? No Problem: Handles 150+ devices at once, so your fridge can live-tweet your midnight snack choices without slowing your Zoom call.
- Future-Proof Ports: Equipped with 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN ports to ensure your network’s ready for multi-gig internet when the future comes knocking.

Deco BE3600: The Little Sibling That Packs a Punch
