Frequently Asked Questions
What is Wi-Fi 7 and how does it improve on Wi-Fi 6E?
Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) introduces Multi-Link Operation (MLO), allowing a single device to simultaneously use multiple frequency bands — delivering up to 4× lower latency and faster speeds than Wi-Fi 6/6E. It also adds 4K-QAM and 320 MHz channels on the 6 GHz band for maximum throughput. Older Wi-Fi 5/6/6E devices connect normally on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
What are the Ethernet port speeds on the BE550 Pro?
The BE550 Pro has one 10 Gbps WAN/LAN port, one 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN port, and three 2.5 Gbps LAN ports — all multi-gigabit, with no standard Gigabit-only ports.
Is the BE550 Pro compatible with mesh networking?
Yes. It supports EasyMesh, allowing it to work with any EasyMesh-compatible router or range extender for seamless whole-home Wi-Fi coverage.
Does the BE550 Pro work with voice assistants?
Yes — it works with both Alexa and Google Assistant for voice control of your network.
Does CCTV Guru ship the Archer BE550 Pro Australia-wide?
Yes. We ship to all states and territories across Australia, including metro and regional areas, with fast dispatch from our Australian warehouse.
