I have 3 X20’s with wired backhaul on a spectrum 500/20 internet connection. Works great. Wired backhaul makes a big difference

I 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.

I have DecoX20 and am about to set up a smarthome. Is this not a good choice for a Home mesh system using HomeKit?

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.

I 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

I 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!
