$26 below where this usually sits.

WiFi 7 hardware has mostly stayed stubbornly expensive, which is why a sub-$100 entry point is worth a look. The TP-Link Archer BE260 just hit the lowest price it has ever carried.

TP-Link Dual-Band BE5000 WiFi 7 Router drops to $98.99 - save $26. That is a 21% cut off its $124.99 list price, and it lands below every recent average this router has posted.

Get This Deal

The $98.99 tag matches the all-time low for this model, and it sits under the 30-day average of $111.25, the 90-day average of $109.51, and the 180-day average of $113.04. In other words. This is not a seasonal dip you could have caught last month.

For just $98.99, down from its list price of $124.99, you are paying less than this router has ever cost.

What You're Getting

• Dual-band WiFi 7 with up to 4324 Mbps on the 5GHz band and 688 Mbps on 2.4GHz across 5 streams.
• One 2.5 Gbps WAN port, one 2.5 Gbps LAN port, and three 1 Gbps LAN ports for multi-gig wired setups.
• Coverage rated up to 2,400 sq. ft. for up to 80 devices, with 5 antennas and Beamforming to push signal into hard-to-reach rooms.
• EasyMesh-compatible for expanding into a mesh network with a compatible range extender.
• Built around TP-Link's CISA Secure-by-Design pledge, with security treated as a core requirement.

Who This Is For

Best for anyone moving to WiFi 7 without rebuilding a whole home network or spending flagship money. If you have gig-plus internet and a multi-gig modem, the 2.5 Gbps ports let you actually use that bandwidth.

It also works well for apartments and mid-size homes where one strong router covers everything.

The Caveat

This is a dual-band router, so it runs on 2.4GHz and 5GHz only and does not support the 6GHz band. Buyers who specifically want a tri-band setup for heavy congestion should look elsewhere.

It is also not compatible with Deco mesh systems, so plan around EasyMesh extensions instead.

Final Verdict

If WiFi 7 is on your list and you want the cheapest way in, the all-time-low $98.99 is the moment to buy. Hold off only if you need 6GHz, because that requirement puts this model out of the running entirely.
