BE19000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Gaming Router Archer GE800 | 12-Stream 19Gbps | 2×10G + 4×2.5G, USB 3.0 | Turbo Acceleration, Dedicated Port and Panel for Gaming, RGB Lighting |

Unfortunately my IPS dosen't deserve a router like this! Web/Browsing/Downloading/Streaming/ I'm getting better overall experience. For gaming: I noticed it handles the lag spikes too well and I'm getting an amazing and super stable ping in games in general which is something I always dreamed of!

I recently had purchased the BE800 to begin upgrading my home Wi-Fi. Coming from an old Nighthawk from 8 years ago, this was a big step. I had some reboot issues and problems starting connected for some devices, but overall was pleased with the increased range and speed. Then they finally released the GE800 in the US and I pulled the trigger right away to take advantage of the $100 discount that is ongoing until July 16th. Although I missed my LCD animations on the BE800, it was worth it for the increased number of devices, the perceived better range and so far much better reliability. The game enhancement features appear to be improving my gaming and I haven't had a single issue other than a DEAD power supply that came with it. I filed an RMA and used another supply with the same model number that I had. (UPDATE EDIT: I spoke with customer service, told them the issue with the power supply, and in less than a week received my replacement power supply. Very fast, very efficient, very consumer friendly!) The BE800 has become my satellite router for my EasyMesh network. Now I have seamless Wi-Fi throughout the home and I haven't had any need for rebooting or any other issues. The LED RGB on the router is a nice little feature, but lacks the usefulness that the small LCD on the BE800 had. I kept it simple and chose some custom colors and haven't thought of it again since I keep the router off to the side and more or less out of sight and mind. The Tether app is great and gives you a lot freedom for seeing Wi-Fi times, prioritizing certain devices, scheduling reboots and updates, customizing the RGB, and a few other great features. Overall this is a great router that should keep you at the front of the technology race for at least the rest of this year until the next big thing comes out. You'd likely be able to keep this router in your home network for the next few years without remorse.

After 3 months stopped working

I upgraded from the TP-Link AX90 (Wi-Fi 6E) to the TP-Link Archer GE800 Wi-Fi 7 router, and the difference has been impressive. With my previous AX90 setup, I needed a Wi-Fi extender to get stable coverage throughout the house. After installing the GE800, I was able to completely remove the extender and still get strong, consistent signal everywhere. Coverage is noticeably better, and dead zones are no longer an issue. Speed is another big upgrade. Wi-Fi 6E already gave me a solid improvement over older routers, but Wi-Fi 7 takes it to another level. Downloads are faster, latency is lower, and performance stays consistent even with multiple devices connected. This has been especially noticeable for gaming and streaming at the same time. The router itself feels very powerful and well built. The multiple high-speed ports (2×10G and 4×2.5G) make it future-proof for wired devices, and setup was straightforward using the TP-Link app. Once configured, it has been stable and reliable with no drops or reboots. Overall, this is an excellent upgrade if you’re coming from a Wi-Fi 6 or 6E router and want better coverage, higher speeds, and fewer devices in your network. The Archer GE800 is expensive, but in my case it replaced both my router and extender, making it well worth the investment.

I really wanted to love this router. For the first year, the Archer GE800 was fantastic. Speeds were excellent, Wi-Fi coverage was strong, and gaming performance was top-tier with low latency and smooth connections. Unfortunately, after about a year of use, serious reliability issues started appearing. AirPlay has become extremely unreliable. Even worse, when multiple Apple HomePods connect, the router will sometimes reboot itself, which is unacceptable for a device at this price point. My smart home setup has become frustrating to use because of this. Gaming performance has also degraded significantly. I now experience frequent disconnects, unstable connections, and sometimes I can’t even stay in a stable lobby. This is especially disappointing given that this router is heavily marketed as a “gaming” router. The final straw was when the router completely reset itself out of nowhere, forcing me to set everything up from scratch. Losing all configuration without warning is something I’d expect from a budget router.... not a premium Wi-Fi 7 flagship. When it works, it’s fast and powerful. But long-term stability just hasn’t been there for me. For the price, I expect rock-solid reliability, and unfortunately this router hasn’t delivered that over time.
