Our Verdict
eero Max 7
TP-Link Archer BE900
The TP-Link BE900 and the eero Max 7 are Wi-Fi 7 routers. The eero is a tri-band router designed to be used in a mesh system, while the TP-Link is a quad-band standalone router. The eero delivers higher top speeds and better range than the TP-Link when the former is used in a dual mesh configuration. That said, the TP-Link has better wired networking with more Ethernet ports, and a more configurable software experience with more features than the eero.
