I’m looking for suggestions for Routers that perform well with MANY devices in my home. My Netgear Nighthawk R6900p works well with many devices but tends to be sporatic with connections on my Cameras ---

This brand was recommended by a friend [Tenda AC23 Smart WiFi Router - Dual Band Gigabit Wireless (up to 2033 Mbps) Internet Router for Home, 4X4 MU-MIMO Technology, Up to 1400 sq ft Coverage Parental Control Compatible with Alexa (AC2100) ([https://a.co/d/6Qrsd8K](https://a.co/d/6Qrsd8K)) In addition to the 35+ Wyze products, there are also many WiFi devices, and a Hubitat Elevation ecosystem that controls my smart home. ---

These are the two I use with great success. Two different Price points both covering 6000sqft and holding at least 150-200 connectable devices. This one I use primarily for IoT devices Where I have my home network split for IoT Home automation and All Else on the other router below (All my Wyze Devices are connected to this) > **[Amazon.com: TP-Link AX1800 WiFi 6 Router (Archer AX21) – Dual Band Wireless...](https://www.amazon.com/WiFi-6-Router-Gigabit-Wireless/dp/B08H8ZLKKK)** > > TP-Link WiFi 6 Router AX1800 Smart WiFi Router – 802.11ax Router, Gigabit Router, Dual Band, OFDMA, Parental Controls, Long Range Coverage, Works with Alexa(Archer AX21)\*Works with all internet service providers, such as Comcast, Charter, AT&T,...

I too now use the ASUS ZenWiFi AX6600 XT8. I have more than 120 IoT devices on my WiFi net. It’s specs say it supports 200 devices and gives me some room to grow that I hope I don’t need now. I had to move to something like this because my eero 6e would support only 75 devices per node and would not allow me to move devices to the other node. The eero 6e system which is cheaper is a very good system, but has its limits. ---

Rulwiz, I use the Router for all devices including everything in the house. Last count 33. My though is that I’m stretching it with my current router and that’s why my iPhone and iPad drop V3 device feeds randomly if I’m following my camera feeds on both of these simultaneously using my Wyze app. If I use only one (iPhone or iPad) at a time I don’t get dropped feeds. ---

I picked up the 1800 based on your past recommendations. However I ended up returning it as it didn’t have any possible bridge mode, which I ended up needing for my environment. ---

Perhaps the best question here is how do they perform with Wyze devices. Personally, I have a SUPER router that performs so VERY well, but in the case of Wyze devices I do see reloads come up ocassionally. I usually think of that as a Wyze app failure, but if anyone has NEVER lost a connection with a Wyze device, then that definitely would be interesting! 🙂 ---

Newshound Regarding your comment "in the case of Wyze devices I do see reloads come up. I usually think of that as a Wyze app failure, but if anyone has NEVER lost a connection with a Wyze device, I need to stress that my issue is NOT that I have too many disconnects, it’s that when they happen, they almost always occur when I am viewing my cameras from 2 devices (iPhone and iPad) simultaneously. If I’m only viewing on my iPhone or iPad alone there are very rare disconnects. However, when I open the other device and begin viewing my cameras on 2 devices I always begin to get frequent disconnects on each device. ---

> [@Newshound](#): > > Personally, I have a SUPER router that performs so VERY well, but in the case of Wyze devices I do see reloads come up Lets remember, Wyze cameras are cheap and in order to keep the price down Wyze needs to use cheap components. The WiFi radio at least in v3 cams is a low end, hence unstable connections. ---

> [@tlhutch4](#): > > Interesting take on the Wyze cheap components causing unstable connections That’s reading a lot into what I said. I said I usually think of that as a Wyze app failure because I think it is intolerant to any delay in response from the camera. I hit ‘reload’, and it reloads. So I don’t think the camera isn’t performing. ---

Just to throw my 2 cents back in, the Tenda router I recommend is $49.95 right now on Amazon. [Tenda AC23 Smart WiFi Router - Dual Band Gigabit Wireless (up to 2033 Mbps) Internet Router for Home, 4X4 MU-MIMO Technology, Up to 1400 sq ft Coverage Parental Control Compatible with Alexa (AC2100)](https://www.amazon.com/Tenda-AC23-Smart-WiFi-Router/dp/B088K9HCJB/) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/wyze/original/3X/9/0/909a4c51c13f5f062a51f8ceea82a7570b73134b.jpeg) The skill level of the OP and their requirements will dictate how much they spend. **[Mod Note]:** _Added product link._ Thanks.

This an old thread, but I thought I would chime in since I only use Wyze Cam v3 cameras. I just retired my 6+ year old Linksys EA6350 router. I got my moneys worth out of it and it is time for a new router. I bought a Asus GT-BE98 Pro quad band WiFi 7 router. It is expensive but should future proof me when I get new devices that use the WiFi 7 standard. > **[ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro | Networking｜ROG - Republic of Gamers｜ROG USA](https://rog.asus.com/us/networking/rog-rapture-gt-be98-pro/)** > > GT-BE98 Pro Quad-band WiFi 7 (802.11be) Gaming Router, support new 320MHz bandwidth & 4096-QAM, Multi-link operation (MLO), Dual 10G ports, VPN Fusion, Triple-level game acceleration, Mobile game mode, AURA RGB, backup WAN, subscription free... Even using it for a couple of days and my v3 cameras are working well. This Asus router does have a separate IoT network in addition to a guest network which allows me to keep the v3 cameras separate from my main network. I was able to designated only using the 2.4Ghz band for the IoT network which the Wyze cameras like. I could have kept the SSID and password for the IoT network the same as my old Linksys (so my Wyze camera should have jumped on it thinking it was the Linksys), but I changed the credentials since i only have 5 Cam v3 cameras. > **[\[Guest Network Pro\] How to set up IoT Network? | Official Support | ASUS USA](https://www.asus.com/us/support/faq/1053540/)** Coverage of my 2-story house is great and I no longer need to use a WiFi extender as I am not seeing any dead spots like with my old Linksys. I thought my wife might complain about the size and design but she thought it looks cool like a drone (even in our living room which she is very picky about). ---

I recommend getting an NVME stick/enclosure and connect it to the USB3 port at the back; instant network storage, for backups/whatever.
