EDIT: The Deco XE200 (1-Pack) has Launched Today! (January 30th) The XE200 is now available on Amazon in both 1 and 2 Packs Varieties. If you are looking to bring the power of Wi-Fi 6E and the advanced management features that come along with the newest Deco's, the 1-Pack provides a perfect opportunity to upgrade your existing mesh network.
TP-Link has just launched the Deco XE200, our newest AXE11000 Whole Home, Tri-Band Mesh, Wi-Fi 6E System! This is the most powerful Deco System released, and potentially one of the strongest routers we have released across the board. First announced at CES 2022, the Deco XE200 uses the newest Wi-Fi 6E Standard to deliver unprecedented speeds over both wired and wireless connections throughout your entire home.
Taking Advantage of Multi-Gig
Featuring one (1) 10-Gigabit Ethernet Port, and two(2) additional gigabit ports for each unit; this mesh system will support any high-bandwidth traffic on your network. This will be extremely beneficial to any of our users that are running a local media server, share large files, or have multiple high-quality video streams at once, whether it be from local security cameras or online streaming services.
As 4K TVs and Streaming Devices have become more popular as an alternative to cable and other TV providers, the load on our networks has also increased, and will only increase further as HDR and 8K content become more mainstream.
The Advantages of Wi-Fi 6E
The Deco XE200 is our first unit mesh unit to take full advantage of the newest frequencies available to home users. Adding support for this higher frequency band essentially doubles the amount of traffic that can pass through your network. Furthermore, as this is the newest band with the most optimizations related to the devices operating on the band, fewer devices will crowd the new bandwidth, allowing your most powerful devices to have a not-quite-dedicated frequency for their traffic
.
Designed for More Devices – OFDMA and MU-MIMI
As Smart Homes become... well… smarter; our networks become more and more crowded as a result of not only the additional sensors/devices but also the traffic flowing from the devices to the network to make your house “Smart.”
Previous generations of Wi-Fi were often limited to having an absolute maximum of 150 devices. Wi-Fi 6E and the Deco XE200 take advantage of two technologies, OFDMA and MU-MIMO; which serve to increase the maximum number of devices to over 200!
Protection for Your Whole Home, Devices, and Family
The DecoXE200 ships with the newest version of TP-Link HomeShield Technology.
As more devices are added to our networks, especially sometimes from manufacturers or sources we don’t know, we need to make sure that our information, devices, and networks are protected from potential threats that you may not know are happening or even possible.
The Deco XE200 Will make sure that you can stream Thursday Night Football in Full 4K without slowing down your network and other devices. Make sure that you never miss another play due to buffering or slow connection speeds.

We also quickly wanted to let everyone know that the Deco XE200 is the first deco unit to provide a designated wi-fi connection for all of your IoT Devices. This new IoT network allows you to disable the 5Ghz frequency on that network. No More using your Guest Network for Smart Home Devices!

@Riley_S I still think for trying to keep users happy that TP-Link would consider adding the channel number feature as an option for its Deco product line. It would keep this in line with other wifi mesh products from competitors that already offer this feature.
I understand that the Deco router is suppose to select a uncrowded channel but from my experience so far this is not the case. It seems to get fixiated on a single channel 48 in my case which from looking at a wifi analyzer of networks around me is actually a very crowded channel. I would love to utilize the channel 149 through 165 at 5 GHz and I can't seem to do that.

I am a little unclear on what requirements you have your network, such as what device is requiring Wi-Fi 6;
however, our deco series is meant to work together to provide easy upgrade avenues for situations such as this. The Deco XE200 will work in tandem with your S4 units, but your connections to the nodes will still be limited by the technology of the S4 units. This means that fi you only have one XE200, the 6Ghz network cannot be used as a part of your mesh configuration and will instead appear as a separate network; and your backhaul between units will still use the 2.4 and 5Ghz frequencies.
While upgrading the main unit can improve overall connection efficiency and speed, the same benefits are not always passed down the line to the decos supporting previous generations of Wi-Fi

@Riley_S will this be getting the new HomeShield 3.0 announced at CES 2023? There is little to no information on which models will get it, and I'm hopeful by its not just the Wi-Fi 7 ones?

@Astone595 I'd like to see how this function can be accomplished as well

I want to say that the home shield 3.0 update is more of an update to the service than it is to the technology. From what I can tell, the update will not be limited to the newest Wi-Fi 7 decos, and the features will be added to already released decos. TP-Link is also planning to manufacture Wi-Fi 6/6E decos for the foreseeable future, so it is not as though Wi-Fi 7 will immediately be replacing older technologies.
Our team actually does not have too much information regarding the details of the tech. However, I was able to learn that the feature should be released in the coming months. When it comes to firmware updates, if it is necessary, the updates are usually rolled out to our most popular, flagship, and newest releases first.

As this is not currently a planned feature for deco, I would recommend creating a thread on our feature requests module so that our team can properly track the request once we provide the feedback to the development teams.
