Our take on the TP-Link Archer BE550 Pro BE9700 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router

The Archer BE550 Pro is TP-Link's tri-band Wi-Fi 7 router rated BE9700, with a combined 9.7 Gbps across its bands. It targets homes and small offices that want Wi-Fi 7 headroom for gaming, 4K streaming and many connected devices without jumping to a flagship price. Against Wi-Fi 6E rivals it adds Wi-Fi 7 features like multi-link operation and wider channels, and it is managed through TP-Link's Android and iOS app. Owners rate it well overall, though some note it runs warm and that real-world speeds depend on your devices supporting Wi-Fi 7.
