A faster internet plan won’t necessarily fix a bedroom where Wi-Fi barely reaches. These five Amazon router deals cover different upgrades, from replacing an aging router to spreading coverage across several rooms or taking an existing eero network outside.

TP-Link Archer BE230 – $79.98 (33% off)

Replacing an aging router doesn’t have to mean buying a $400 mesh kit. The Archer BE230 costs under $80, with two 2.5Gbps ports that let a compatible wired device take advantage of faster-than-gigabit internet. Just don’t assume the Wi-Fi 7 badge includes everything: there’s no 6GHz band. For an inexpensive replacement, though, those faster Ethernet connections are a practical reason to pick it.

Key spec/featureDetails
Wi-Fi standardDual-band Wi-Fi 7
Wireless bands2.4GHz and 5GHz; no 6GHz
Ethernet portsOne 2.5Gbps WAN, one 2.5Gbps LAN, three Gigabit LAN
USBOne USB 3.0 port for shared storage
Mesh expansionEasyMesh support

Eero Pro 6E, 1-pack – $149.99 (25% off)

The Pro 6E has been around a while, but it still brings compatible phones and laptops onto the 6GHz band for $150. One unit can replace the main router or expand an existing eero setup, without buying a whole kit. Watch the ports, though: once the faster connection is occupied by the internet feed, the remaining Ethernet socket tops out at a gigabit.

Wi-Fi standardTri-band Wi-Fi 6E

Ethernet portsOne 2.5Gbps port and one Gigabit port

Network roleMain router or additional eero mesh node

TP-Link Deco BE63, 3-pack – $396.50 (16% off)

When the problem is a room that barely gets Wi-Fi, I’d put more thought into router placement than the biggest speed number on the box. This Deco kit provides three nodes for slightly less than the eero Pro 7 two-pack. Each also has four Ethernet ports for wired devices and links between nodes. The discount isn’t dramatic, but there’s plenty of hardware here.

Key spec/featureDetails
Wi-Fi standardTri-band Wi-Fi 7
Wireless bands2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz
Included unitsThree mesh nodes
Ethernet portsFour 2.5Gbps WAN/LAN ports per node
Connections between nodesWireless or Ethernet backhaul
Channel supportUp to 320MHz on 6GHz with compatible devices

Eero Pro 7, 2-pack – $399.99 (27% off)

The Pro 7 two-pack earns its place through faster wired connections. Each unit has two 5Gbps ports, which will interest eero households with internet service and equipment that can use them. Compared with the Deco kit, there’s one fewer node and fewer sockets per unit. For slower internet plans, those faster ports alone aren’t a reason to choose it over the Deco.

Key spec/featureDetails
Wi-Fi standardTri-band Wi-Fi 7
Wireless bands2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz
Included unitsTwo mesh routers
Ethernet portsTwo auto-sensing 5Gbps ports per unit
Wi-Fi 7 featuresMulti-Link Operation and up to 320MHz channels

Eero Outdoor 7 with power adapter – $309.99 (23% off)

Wi-Fi shouldn’t give up at the back door. The Outdoor 7 extends an existing eero network into a patio or yard, using weather-resistant hardware designed to live outside. This bundle includes the power adapter and costs $90 less than its list price. It’s a specific fix for eero households, though: it won’t join a mesh network built around another brand’s router.

Key spec/featureDetails
Wi-Fi standardDual-band Wi-Fi 7, using 2.4GHz and 5GHz
Weather resistanceIP66 dust and water resistance
Ethernet connectionOne 2.5Gbps PoE+ port
Included power supply30W weatherproof PoE+ adapter

Mesh compatibilityEero networks; does not mesh with other router brands

I’d buy one of these 4 gaming monitors while Amazon Prime deals are still live
Computer Hardware, Electronics, Hardware

A monitor is one of those PC upgrades I’m usually reluctant to rush into. Too many options, and once you start looking at OLED panels, ultrawides, 4K resolutions, and high refresh rates, prices can get expensive fast. That’s exactly why Amazon Prime sales are usually a good time to start looking.

I’ve reviewed the monitor deals currently available on Amazon, and these four caught my attention. There’s a little bit of everything here, from a 240Hz OLED that should be fantastic for gaming to a 34-inch ultrawide and even a monitor capable of hitting an absurd 480Hz. More importantly, all four are on sale right now, with one down as much as 44%.

Asus Zenbook 14 hits the shelves to tackle MacBook Neo with OLED, better ports, and other perks
At just $100 over the MacBook Neo, you get an OLED display, more versatile ports, biometric authentication on all models, and a backlit keyboard.
Asus Zenbook 14

The entry-point Asus ZenBook 14 is finally up for grabs in the US market, and this one is staring right at the MacBook Neo with a handful of practical perks. Just like the MacBook Neo, Asus' offering also comes with an all-metallic build that uses the proprietary Ceraluminum material that we have seen on pricier ZenBooks.

But there are a handful of upgrades on this $800 laptop that set it apart from its $700 competitor from Apple. The most notable one is a 14-inch OLED display, which offers a much better viewing experience than what you get on the MacBook Neo. The port selection is also pretty generous, as you get a pair of USB-C ports, a full-size USB Type-A port, and an HDMI port as well.
