TP-Link Wi-Fi 6 Mesh Router Replacement System | 3- AX1500 Mesh Routers | Coverage up to 5,600 Sq. ft. | Parental Controls | Connect up to 120 Devices | TP-Link Deco W4500

The TP-Link hub and satellites replaced a Nighthawk system that failed. Nighthawk's setup was a little arcane. The TP-Link units were interchangeable, which means there is no designated hub, which makes the system more resilient and less likely to go down *********%=continued WiFi for security systems and WiFi enabled devices. Installation was intuitive and nearly automatic. Coverage is excellent, it even supports a camera on a remote building (approximately *********' away from the closest satellite). Price was fantastic, approximately 50% lower. Design is smart, simple light colored cylinder, easily blends into all locations.

This Mesh network WiFi router was recommended to me by a Tech Nerd. The price was a bit more than I wanted to pay but less than the Tech Nerd expected. It was simple to set up and connect. No Dead Zones in my 1,800 sq ft home and even pretty good range in the yard. Overall, I'm happy and would recommend.

We have a small 1100 ft2 house but the WiFi signal is very weak in the master bedroom when the door is closed at around 25mbps when it's 450mbps in the living room with the Xfinity modem. After we added the mesh router to the master bedroom, we now get 270mbps with the door closed so it's a huge improvement. In hindsight we should have gotten the 2 pack W3000 for $69 because we ended up not needing the 3rd unit, but $99 still seems like a good deal for this system.

This "MESH ROUTER SYSTEM" is great. Follow the instructions and leave them alone. Any errors you make in the "setup process" the system will fix itself overnight. Really. if you really muck it up like I did tech support will help. Live people!!! When you have it running the way you want, you can go back and "name" each item connected to each router. It helps keep track of what's connected and where.

Let's be honest—setting this up was a little like trying to teach my dog to use an iPad. Confusing at first, but eventually we figured it out and now everything runs smoothly. Once you get past the mildly chaotic setup, the TP-Link Deco is a rockstar. Signal all over the house, even in that weird corner where Wi-Fi used to go to die. No more buffering during Zoom calls or late-night YouTube rabbit holes. If setup was smoother, I'd propose to it. But for now, I'll settle for solid internet and only mild tech-related panic.

I replaced my old router with this TP-Link mesh system, and the difference is noticeable. The speeds are consistent, even when multiple devices are connected, and the signal reaches rooms that were previously dead zones. The app makes setup simple, and I like being able to monitor connected devices. A great solution for anyone struggling with Wi-Fi coverage.

Overall a good product for the price. Having a tech background I tend to be more critical but I will say the Deco app has vastly improved with the setup process over time. If you are looking for an easy mesh system to expand your wifi range this is a solid choice. Please know this product can be used a standalone router and will broadcast its own SSID that you select during setup. I bought to increase wifi range which it does a good job of doing after running speed tests in areas that didn't have much signal strength. FYI: each tower does also have two ethernet ports which you can use to either connect devices or even connect a switch to if you need additional ports. I even have a digital phone connected to one of the wireless towers via ethernet cable and the reception is great!

I used the Deco 9 for my old house. But with the new house that is single story, this fits the bill perfectly. Sure it's still WiFi-6 instead of the 6 or Wifi-7. But with my subscription of only 800mbs, I find no reason to get the higher model. Which by the way cost twice as more. No more low or blind wifi spots with constant speed throughout the house. Installation is a breeze as soon as downloaded the app. Highly recommended for those still under the 1Gbs subscription speeds.

I hooked this up and it wouldn't connect to my Spectrum modem, when I called TP-Link after talking to Spectrum, I was trying to get help to connect it to my Spectrum modem. TP-Link told me, they weren't Spectrum I had to call Spectrum, I had already did that. It was a run around when it came to support. I just boxed it up because it doesn't connect to the Spectrum modem.

In theory these should work great. However I don't want to have two networks which is what this wants to do. I just want to extend the existing network throughout my home. It also seems to not like placing them at ranges. It barely works and reduces our speed on that network dramatically so we only use them for things that are secondary. I find myself relying on mobile data more than the wifi signal cause it's always causing delays but saying good signal. Also two networks suck because of features like airplay.
