What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent or unconfirmed: the headline calls the router BE6500 and lists six antennas, while feature copy gives a 6.5 Gbps total and six antennas, and the details section lists a 5765 Megabits Per Second transfer rate without a total. The separate 2.4 GHz figure is 688 Mbps. Confirm the speed figures and port configuration for the selected listing before buying. The stated speed figures are manufacturer claims, not independently verified results.

The supplied aggregate ratings are sharply split between the highest and lowest star categories, with only a very small sample and no written feedback available. They do not identify why people rated the router as they did, so they offer little guidance on gaming performance, coverage or the listed 2.5G ports.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Archer GE400 include a modem?

The listing says modem compatible: No, so buyers needing a modem should check their internet setup and equipment requirements.

How many 2.5G LAN ports are listed?

The feature copy specifies two 2.5G LAN ports. The details section also lists two ports, but confirm the port layout in the selected listing.

Can the router be expanded for wider coverage?

It is listed as EasyMesh compatible. The description says a compatible router or extender can be added, and does not say that an extender is included.

What speeds does the listing claim?

It gives 5765 Mbps on 5 GHz and 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. Other headline speed wording is not fully consistent, so treat these as listing claims and confirm the configuration before purchase.
