Thanks. That was my initial inclination. Just didn’t even know cost, given I wasn’t sure which router model would be the correct upgrade.RT-BE88U is dual-band router. The same band limitations apply, it won't be significantly faster on Wi-Fi. If none of your Wi-Fi 7 devices really need >Gigabit speeds - keep your existing routers. Don't invest in speed test numbers.
I bought 2 BE-92U routers and connected them in Ai Mesh (wired haul); been very happy with them and their WiFi 7 performance since the BE92U supports the 6 GHz band where as the more expensive BE-86U/BE-88U don't.I have 2 RT-AX88U Pro routers in a mesh. Got some new devices that support WiFi 7, so am considering upgrading my routers.
What’s the WiFi 7 equivalent of the AX88U Pro? Is it the BE88U?
