TP-Link - Deco Voice X20

I've been using a TP-Link Deco X-20 and have no real problems. Does the job with plenty of coverage.

If you want your network to be wired, test the data cables in the walls first to see if they even work as that could cause a headache later on ;) As for what mesh network to get, there are many budget friendly options! Personally, I have only had good experiences with the TP-Link Deco mesh network, specifically the DecoX20 AX1800. There are good Black Friday sales on for a 3 pack that is roughly -$260 and a 2 pack is under $190. You will need to figure out if you want to “waste” one deco in the garage. As for upgrading your speeds, there are good Black Friday deals on offer at the moment.

Glad for all the happy guys, I had a XE75 pro 3 pack but sold one of the nodes, in hindsight what I should have gotten was X80. I have a seperate network that’s better with 2.4ghz speed and effective range, I found my x20s had better 2.4ghz range than my xe75 pros. Allwell you only learn such specific optimisations through trial and error. My favourite network is still my 3 pack x20s , have one of them in a roofspace acting as a wireless ethernet port into a cluster of camera. X75 pro force backhaul onto 6ghz which would cause such extreme situations to work poorly compared to the amazing network range of the x20s backhaul.

Been using TP LINK X20 Mesh Rounders for 1000+ days Absolutely zero issues so far. https://preview.redd.it/w4yua9dkmtcf1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=0b8781e3a21f2ab0ca139d588dbd8e55d445a9af You need to take care of few things. Plugin the master node to a UPS. That thing is very power sensitive. I use a master switch that runs CAT 6 cables to almost every place I want internet (either via the false ceiling or other wires). This ensures there's minimal signal loss even with 7-10 inch thick walls. Let me know if you have any questions.

Yes. Depending on your place, you could get away with using one high power node. I have been using X20 only as they can handle all the online traffic as well as the local traffic bandwidth for media servers and file transfers. What's your house outlay like?

Depending on your budget, 3 tplink x20s or x55s should cover you. Hook 1 into your modem, and then you can simply plug them into an outlet and add them to your network. I wouldn't get anything that says "extender" and I see no reason for a "traditional" router anymore. I spent a bunch of money on one of the most "powerful" routers out there a few years ago in our 4000 sqft house and it was worthless. Discovered tplink mesh units and see no reason to change. 3 units in our new 2900 sqft house and we're covered all over the backyard and out to the street

Get a 2 pack of the tplink x20. 109 new , 79 used on Amazon. If you don't like it send it back

Installed 2 x20 units in my neighbors 4000sqft+ house and she is fully covered past the garage 2 floors. Gets over 400mbs at the opposite side of the house. That's plenty for 99% of people. And it's simple to setup and in 8 years I've seen almost 0 issues. $110 on Amazon for the 2 pack. I use a common sense approach to setting up people's homes, but yeah if they're one of the less than 1% of homeowners that need a port with full bandwidth and 5ms ping in every room you're going to pay more and look at other options, but it's bad advice to tell everyone you need to hardwire your house.

Mesh system - one profile setting for the entire network. Overall better signal quality as well. If it's just a single level/storey, property, you'll need at least two. One parent mesh connected to the router and another mesh in the middle of the property. Take note of your internet speed and due diligence in researching the best model since some mesh systems cap off at 100mbps. Personal setup is 5 pieces of TP link Deco X20 (wifi 6) for a 370 sqm two-storey property. Connection speed for subscription is 400 maps.

I had a TP-Link Deco WiFi 6 Mesh System(Deco X20) - Covers up to 5800 Sq.Ft. and it kept shutting down every 5-6 hours and I would have to reset all the other links. Just beware some may not work too well.

I'd avoid the eero pro 6E/ netgear nighthawk RAX70. These routers are overpriced and expensive junk that do not deliver on their promises. I can't believe my $50 TP-Link AX1800 far exceeded both of these routers in terms of stability and performance. Eero and netgear gave me constant dropouts in WiFi signals. Save yourself the expensive regret and just avoid eero/ netgear as a whole, and stick to TP-Link/ other reliable manufacturers. Even a used TP-Link older model will be better for your household.

Ini ga jadi masalah, kalau u ga suka pindah2 sambil conference call kerja (misal dari kamar ke ruang tamu). Kalau mesh aman, karena dia akan autoswitching. Pengalaman saya pakai TP Link Deco X20 udah 4 tahunan stabil pakai biznet yang sekarang speed 200 Mbps (dulu awal2 beli mesh, biznetnya masih 60an Mbps), untuk rumah 350m2. Pakai 2 node Deco X20. Harga total 1.8 jutaan kayaknya sekarang. Setup: Modem Biznet—[cat6cable]—node mesh pertama. Dari node mesh pertama ke node mesh kedua full wireless. Di rumah ada 5 orang total device +- 35 termasuk hp, laptop, smart bulb, iPad. Saran kalau memang penggunaan untuk profesional (misal: kerja, confcall) atau di rumah banyak orang/device, mesh aja.

I'm using a TP-Link AX-1800 with a single mesh extender in my garage, all on a gigabit fiber connection. No problems with my cameras.
