BE400 vs AX54 router
I have two option to buy
BE400 Wifi 7 router (entry level) and AX73 Wifi 6 router (mid ranger).
Which would be wise to get as my main requirement is range? Are they both same in range? I have noticed TP links entry level routers are signals not much powerful compared higher ranges. Is this the same case here? Both are similarly price. Please help.

I have the AX72V.01 and the range i get with mine is very impressive,
I can get wifi signal down my road 200ft/60m on 5ghz.
Bare in mind my router has to go through a double lined brick wall plus fight atleast 15+ wifi signals in-between.
That in my opinion is impressive when you include walls and other interfering signals.
The question is as said above do you need the wifi 7 router or will the wifi 6 be more than enough for you,
Do you need the wifi 7 speeds as not all locations isp offer those sort of speeds so if ypur isp is capped to 1gbps then thats all youll get.
plus do you need the 2.5gbps lan port for your internal network for a Nas maybe?
As I said above I'm using the AX72 I'm uk based and with BT fttp,
I'm on their top package (945/110) and I get that consistently, it's a blue moon if I see anything as low as 845 down.
I have a varied of devices throughout my property and more than half don't/cant actually reach those speeds.
( kids xbox's and ps4 have never got over 600mbps down and that's hardwired aswell wifi is maybe a little bit less)
Where I'm running 3x ax72 routers (1xmain 2Ap) I've turned the transmit power down on all 3 to low and im still able to get full signal and speeds in a thick brick walled house and some comfortably.
My 5pence worth would be if you have devices that can reach those speeds and need the upgrade from the wifi7 and 2.5gbps wan and lan port then that would be a solid reason to upgrade to the be400,
If not than I'd sway towards the ax73
i can't vouch much on the signal strength of that router But beings I'm using the next one down I'd imagine it has very similar signal qualities as mine
