abit concerned about pdd security and quality
was looking at this over carousell
TP-Link BE7200 WiFi 7 Router TL-7DR7290
but not too sure why the seller need to highlight app in chinese...
hmm.. Which ISP contract you on? 3G 5G 10G?? are all your desktop Intel or AMD?
Are you using Wired or Wifi?
Option 1 Purely Wifi 7 and Wired desktop on 3G or 5G
I will not purchase cheap knock out routers. it's it for WiFi 7, I will grab Asus RT-BE92U and for AMD desktop (AM5) I will look for wifi 7 adapter under
Qualcomm QCNCM865 and for (Intel Gen 13 - Gen 15) I will look for Wifi 7 adapter under
Intel® Wi-Fi 7 BE200
Wifi Adaptor are critical, as the above adapters are using Ultra-Wide 320 MHz Channels and try
to avoid MediaTek MT7925 (160 MHz Channel)
or MediaTek MT7927 (Though 320 MHz Channel, the signal range is weaker and may cause intermittenace or drop of signal)
Note: These wifi adaptors are on m.2, you either switch out on onboard B850 or X870E mobo's wifi slot or to look for PCIE Gen 4 x2 speed type of adaptor.
For wired lan 3G, just run with 2.5G RJ45 socket on your mobo. If for 5G, just grab any PCIE Gen 3 x2 adaptor.
(I never try 5G as I only have experience on 2.5G and 10G)
What is Ultra-Wide 320 MHz Channel
WiFi 7 introduces three ultrawide 320 MHz channels in the 6 GHz band, doubling data transmission capacity. This allows for significantly more simultaneous transmissions at the fastest possible speeds.
Option 2 Both Wifi 7 and Wired Desktop on 10G ISP
For wired 10G, I will just grab Asus RT-BE98 + 10G Switch (This is a very expensive option). For AM5 will be 10G PCIE To RJ45 Network Card Marvell AQC107 PCIE Gen 4 x4 and for Intel will be Intel X550 RJ45 10G PCIE Gen 4 x4.
Either platform, just make sure your motherboard additional PCI-E slot are of Gen 4 and runs at x4 speed and not x2. also especially on AM5. make sure PCI-E Gen 4 slot do not lane share with m.2 slots. As for Wifi 7, follow option 1 Wifi adaptors
