TP-Link has officially introduced two new dual-band routers supporting Wi-Fi 7 – Archer BE220 and Archer BE7200. Both models support EasyMesh technology, which makes it easy to combine multiple routers and repeaters within one network to increase coverage area. Support for the Easy Setup function has been implemented to simplify the process of setting up and managing devices, as well as HomeShield to protect against cyber threats.
