With the devolo WiFi 7 BE6500, the German network specialist presents a new mesh system that has been specially developed for modern fiber optic connections. In addition to ultra-fast WLAN of the latest generation, the device also functions as a powerful Ethernet router. The focus is on high speed, stable coverage and simple setup – an overall package that is suitable for gaming as well as streaming and smart home applications.
- WLAN 7 mesh system with up to 6,500 Mbps speed
- Supports 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz including modern features
- Can be used flexibly as a router, access point or mesh system
- Available as a single device, 2 or 3-mesh kit
devolo WiFi 7 BE6500: Mesh system for maximum speed and stability
The devolo WiFi 7 BE6500 consistently relies on the latest WiFi 7 technologies and thus raises the performance in the home network to a new level. With support for 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz frequency bands and a channel width of up to 320 MHz, a maximum data rate of up to 6,500 Mbps is achieved. Technologies such as Multi-Link Operation, 4K-QAM and Multi-RU Puncturing not only ensure higher peak speeds, but also more efficient use of the network.
The system really comes into its own in households with many simultaneously active devices. Features such as bidirectional multi-user MIMO and OFDMA intelligently distribute the available bandwidth. The result is a stable connection with low latency – a decisive advantage for online gaming, cloud applications or high-resolution streaming.
The mesh principle also ensures comprehensive Wi-Fi coverage. Multiple access points form a dense network in which end devices are automatically connected to the best signal. Functions such as Access Point Steering and Band Steering continuously optimize this process in the background. The system therefore offers a reliable solution, particularly in larger apartments or houses with difficult layouts.
Flexible use as a fiber optic router and simple installation
A key advantage of the devolo WiFi 7 BE6500 is its versatility. The device can not only be used as a classic router, but also as an access point or part of a mesh system. Thanks to the 2.5 Gbit/s connection, the model is ideal for fast fiber optic connections and can be connected directly to an ONT or modem.
Installation is deliberately kept simple. Both the mesh kits and the individual device are delivered pre-configured, so that a plug-and-play setup is possible. The devolo Home Network app or the web interface can be used to quickly set up, monitor and, if necessary, adjust the network. Subsequent changes – such as switching from router to access point mode – can also be made easily.
Another plus point is the high level of compatibility. The system not only works with other devolo products, but also with routers and modems from different manufacturers. This keeps the setup flexible and future-proof. The overall package is complemented by functions such as guest WLAN, QoS and security features such as WPA3 encryption.
Conclusion
With the devolo WiFi 7 BE6500, devolo delivers a powerful and versatile mesh system that is particularly optimized for fibre optic connections. High speeds, modern WiFi 7 technologies and flexible application options make the device a future-proof solution for demanding home networks. The router is available from 149.90 euros, while the mesh kits cost up to 399.90 euros depending on the scope.
