"My Portal now connects and works amazing. Fast connection, zero lag."
"Actually better than a range extender, as Mesh systems are designed from the ground up to work with each other in the system. ... But it's half ass "patched up" jerky jerky mesh was no match to a Deco. Deco was snappier, more reliable, and longer range."
"I moved to a TP link Deco system and have been incredibly impressed particularly with maintaining my internets full gigabit speeds between nodes."

"3 units in our new 2900 sqft house and we're covered all over the backyard and out to the street"
"I was able to cover a 3 level house using two units (one of the ground floor and second mounted near the roof of second floor near the stairs. This covers all 3 floors completely."
"It takes 3 decos to cover 5500 sq ft. That’s what I have. Took about 5 of the crappy Linksys ones. Got rid of those."

"Just a no fuss system. ... Plug in, download the app, set ssid and don't worry about it anymore for years. ... Mine has been stable and working for years."
"It’s easy and reliable. ... This is all really easy to set up in my experience, and it just works."

"TPLink Decco is a damn good mesh system and and much cheaper. ... $169 for my 3 Decco System."
"WiFi 7 models are still very expensive but few devices are compatible at the moment so for me WiFi 6 is the best option for the money."
"you can pick up a 3-pack for cheap, solid units"

"tplink just works ... I follow up with my customers each month and they say everything is much better and working great. I only hardwire nodes, never wireless, and I buy the wifi6e versions- I’m not saying tplink is better than Unifi, just saying a hardwired network and wifi where you need it is the recipe."
"I noticed a BIG improvement once i conected all my decos via ethernet. ... I hate cables but it was a game changer, i use smart products from different brands and now i don't have any issues with disconections!! ... Some meross plugs disconected all the time before wiring my decos, now they work flawless!"
"I have tp link Delco each has ethernet back haul works great."

"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."
"throughput just randomly drops to 1kbps"
"It's not great / weaker then the tp link deco meshing setup i was using before. Lower connection speed and more frequent disconnects."

"rubbish app that won't let you change settings 9 times out of 10"
"TP Link Deco definitely requires an app and an account"
"I dislike the Deco's forced online login and management via a phone app only"

""EastMesh" and Deco "AIMesh" seem to use different mesh platforms and likely won't be compatible. ... Sales person is right, ish. You're not going to get either of these to blend properly like a mesh system would, because they're based on different mesh platforms. EasyMesh and Deco Mesh. They wouldn't be compatible and you'll be wasting money getting the Deco over a straight Access Point, it wasting potential over getting another EastMesh device."
"Side note: I'm surprised how many mesh platforms tp-link has. Gosh that's annoying: EasyMesh, AI Mesh, Deco (might be the AI one), and OneMesh??? And probably all not cross compatible."

"rubbish app that won't let you change settings 9 times out of 10"
"That's where I noticed the app was a bit buggy. It would not let me do changes (failure to save your settings...) ... I found a workaround by closing and restarting the app."

alienisfunycas3 1.0Currently using Deco X20 and 3 M5?/3?, hoping to switch to Ubiquiti once they have a U7 Mesh. Running a cloud gateway ultra already so eventual transition to Ubiquiti is expected.
_D3Ath_Stroke_ 1.0I have my own tp link axe75 and TP-Link deco x20 connected to the my.t shit router. My brother uses the deco since we use the 3 units to extend the network to his house next to mine. I use my own axe75. On 100mbps my.t broadband.
it works fine but note that i paid full price of my own router. you got a sweet deal. got the deco for 8k and axe75 for 10k. someone brought it from abroad for me.
Dismal-Log8204 1.0I was between the s7 - x10 a few days ago. The S7 seemed good to me because of the 2.5G band and price ratio, regardless of what type of Wi-Fi it was (5). But always studying which is the best option Quality-benefit-price, I was between the x20 and x50, already with WiFi 6 and with promising speeds in 2.5g and 5g and that there was very little direction in prices, I went directly for the x20, today it arrived, I'll have to try it.
Entre s7 y x20 andá por el x20. Lo ideal seria que lo conectes directo por cable ethernet al router, y si este mismo es combinado con wifi, le desactives el wifi del mismo router, asi solo maneja el wifi el tplink x20. De esa manera no se interrumpen las redes teniendo como maestro el del x20. Ojalá tengas suerte y te sirva. Despues lo que es instalación de los mismos es bastante intuitivo a través de la app tplink.
Downstairs-Parking 1.0I have DecoX20 and am about to set up a smarthome. Is this not a good choice for a Home mesh system using HomeKit?
Dull-Dust1388 1.0If 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.
dxb_khan 1.0Buy tplink deco x20 3 pack
Far_Tradition5791 1.0I have deco x75 pro..3000 sqft..all points have multiple wired connections which is great. Most deco pods( different variations) are flexible to work with each other. I have x75 pro and x20 pods..all on same mesh. I've had the system for about two and a half years and I can tell you it's been near flawless. Speeds are constant, almost no drops...ever!! Easy to setup and maintain. Auto updates... You really can't ask for an easier mesh setup that just works
GrahamR12345 1.0Tp-Link Deco X20 working great for me!
iamRoRo1 1.0I have 3 Deco X20 for a 2000 sq ft apartment. Mesh system works well. No issues so far. You’ll have to inform Etisalat that you want to enable PPPoE and they’ll send your username/password over sms, use that to configure your mesh system.
justsabo 1.0I mean I don't have any experience with wifi-extenders, I know my cousins have had iffy reliability from them, same with the pods. If you want my honest opinion, if you are able to spend more than $100, I would suggest just getting a mesh router, I got 2 Deco X20s and they have been far more reliable and faster than the HH3000 (I know you have the HH4000 but that is all I had so that is what I can compare to), especially when placed a bit more optimally from each other and I couldn't be happier. It will cost you more upfront but in my opinion it was definitely worth it!
