Since first announced on January 10 this year, the BE30000 Quad Band Wi-Fi 7 System has been an intriguing and highly anticipated mesh system. As it finally becomes available for purchase, I’d say it’s worth the wait — a completely different experience from the similar yet anticlimactic TP-Link Deco BE95. …
In a way, each router of the 2-pack ASUS ExpertWiFi EBM68 AX7800 Tri-Band Business Wi-Fi 6 System is a combination of the EBA63 access point and the EBG15 non-Wi-Fi router. And in that sense, it’s simply a more powerful variant of the EBR63 router. That’s to say, the new mesh …
Earlier this month, on April 16, 2024, TP-Link announced the availability of the Deco XE70 Pro AXE4900 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 6E System. The name rang a bell. Prior to that, there had been the Deco XE75 Pro and the original Deco XE75. I took the new canned mesh system — …

The ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro quad-band Wi-Fi 7 router is a sizable step up from the RT-BE96U. It represents the ROG gaming family and has everything the older cousin has, plus four extra Multi-Gigabit ports and a ton of gaming-related features. Here’s the bottom line: The GT-BE98 Pro is definitely …
