I finally got sick of restarting my Nest Wifi manually every two days when my wifi would inevitably stop working. Switched to TP-Link DECO. Oh my god why did it wait so long, It’s been flawless for over a month. Don’t ever have to think about it. Google abandoned this product. If you’re thinking about switching, do it.

Mix. One x50, two x60, one x20 Got em all used. They work flawlessly together

The Decos do seem good. I have a X50-5G running on a utility (private power distribution) building for some commercial buildings we have; lets us get an internet connection there so we can access CCTV. It’s reliable but a very limited use case

I think any of those 3 would work for you. I personally have setup my home network on the Deco X50 mesh system with 4 AP in total, and my smart home network in Home Assistant. No issues at all and provides a fair amount of control over your devices and network (priority, IP reservation, preferred bands/AP, etc. ).

I have just under 2000 sqft in a two story house (3 if you count the basement). I have my main deco router upstairs on one end of the house and the second on the main level on the opposite end. No matter where I am I get full strength signal. In the past my main level deco went offline and I noticed connectivity issues especially in the basement. With various iot devices like cameras and the thermostat stability matters more for me. Now that I’ve had a mesh network I don’t think I can ever go back.
