How to choose
Match coverage to your home
Coverage is the maker's own figure for the 3-pack in each case: 10,000 sq ft for the Orbi 970, 6,600 sq ft for the Nest WiFi Pro, 6,500 sq ft for the Deco BE23, 6,000 sq ft for the eero 7, and 3,500 sq ft for the Tenda MW6. Measure your home's floor area, including rooms where the signal must reach, and compare it with the figure for the pack size you plan to buy.
Wi-Fi 7, 6E and AC1200
Wi-Fi 7 is the newest standard here, on the Deco BE23, eero 7 and Orbi 970, while the Nest WiFi Pro uses Wi-Fi 6E and the Tenda MW6 uses AC1200 dual-band. A newer standard does not by itself extend coverage, so weigh the standard together with the coverage figure and the port speeds. Each system links its units into one mesh network.
Ports, apps and security
For security, the Deco BE23 offers HomeShield with a private IoT network, the eero 7 offers an optional eero Plus subscription, and the Tenda MW6 uses WPA2-PSK encryption with an isolated guest network. Check which extras need a subscription before you buy.
