TP-Link Deco BE25 3-pack

The TP-Link Deco BE25 Wi-Fi 7 mesh set is, as the name suggests, a Wi-Fi 7 set, which is of course backward compatible so that older devices can also simply connect. The package contains 3 Wi-Fi points, and 1 LAN cable is included to connect the main unit to your router. The other 2 receive the connection wirelessly and only need to be connected to the socket for power.

The Wi-Fi points are small and easy to install, although I would have preferred that they could be mounted on the wall as is now the case with my Ubiquiti set.

I have never installed 3 Wi-Fi points so quickly before. Using the DECO app on your mobile phone, everything was up and running in less than 10 minutes. Everything actually happens in the app, so all settings and configurations (SSID, channels, VPN, QOS) are done there. You connect the main unit to the app, the other 2 points are automatically found and added as soon as they have power. I have never seen it easier than this.

During testing, it was noticed that my Wi-Fi 7 devices lose their connection several times a day, which you can also see in the app (the connection then has to be re-established). But also that it switches back to Wi-Fi 6. The range between the mutual points is also disappointing, which means that I do not achieve the maximum speed, even though they are not very far apart.

The major advantages are therefore summarized: easy to install (anyone can do it), suitable for Wi-Fi 7 devices, suitable in a not too large home. Something still needs to be done about the loss/loss of the connection.
I was allowed to test this set for Review.nl

I recently tested the TP-Link Deco BE25 via Review.nl and I am very impressed with the improvements it has brought to my home network. This mesh system delivers blazing fast and reliable connections throughout my home, thanks to the latest WiFi 7 technology.

The installation was easy thanks to the intuitive Deco app; the system was up and running within minutes. It must be said that I already had a mesh system, which may have sped up the installation.

The seamless roaming is a big plus. I can move freely around my home without interruptions during video calls or streaming videos. The Deco BE25 has two 2.5 Gbps ports that are perfect for demanding applications such as cloud gaming and 8K streaming.

A small downside is the limited number of Ethernet ports (only two per unit), which may require an additional switch if you want to connect multiple devices via wire, especially if you use the ports for a wired backhaul. However, this does not detract from the excellent wireless performance and quality of the network. Overall, the TP-Link Deco BE25 is an excellent choice for those looking to improve their Wi-Fi experience.

We had the chance to test the TP-Link Deco BE25 WiFi 7 mesh set (3-pack), and our first impressions are very positive. The unboxing went smoothly and the set was stylishly packaged – not an essential point, but the eye wants something too.

The installation was surprisingly easy. I connected one of the routers via the supplied Ethernet cable and effortlessly paired it with the TP-Link 'DECO' app. The app is clear and offers useful extras, such as the option to set up a VPN over the entire network.

Then the expansion: I strategically placed the other two units in the house for optimal coverage. These connections were also made immediately and without problems. Finally, we have stable WiFi on the top floor without any interruptions!

A small downside is that some devices connect to the main router sooner than to the closer units. However, this has no noticeable effect on the speed of the network. In short, the TP-Link Deco BE25 offers easy installation and impressive WiFi speeds for a surprisingly affordable WiFi 7 mesh set. As far as we're concerned, a real must-have!
