"My mom actually installed it herself with no problem. ... If you’re not familiar with networking it’s great system."
"Honestly I really like it, I have only had a few minor hiccups but the control I have is great and it was easy to set up. ... At least this way I can see what is and is not working and troubleshooting is easy. I also have a variety of controls to see who is connecting to what and I can block things easier"
"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."

"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."
"rock-solid coverage, great for large homes"

"Became FANTASTIC once I strung some ethernet cables among four of them including the one serving as a router in strategic locations (our house is rather large and some walls contain metal lathe). ... We now always have excellent connectivity and fast roaming."
"Connection, coverage, speed all great"
"the main improvements are speed + capacity + stability"

"TP Link Deco definitely requires an app and an account ... although there is a web interface, it can't do much."
"Can confirm. Have Deco. Am miserable."
"rubbish app that won't let you change settings 9 times out of 10"

"If you can’t do a wired/coax backhaul between the nodes and have an older or brick house, I can’t recommend. ... The wireless bridge between access points is pretty horrible even like 20-30 ft from each other in my house."
"random disconnects"
"Same headaches here. I just manually restart them occasionally."

"Stay far away from routers with fans, I returned a tp-link wifi 7 router over this exact issue. ... Sfp port was so hot it was unreal. ... Try to cool your place in summer with air conditioning, you don't want some fan blowing heat. ... Also moving parts is a bad idea for longevity."

"I went from Deco’s that had devices drop off regularly"
adayinalife 1.0Im using Deco BE11000 as my 2 main nodes (plus a few smaller deco devices to extend to other parts) in an apartment, wifi 6 disabled (as i don't have anything that supports it yet), fast roaming disabled. System works flawlessly and consists of a full Arc Ultra setup, Sonos Amp, Era 100 and several Symfonisk speakers.
benbo6921 1.0Using AT&T fiber 1000 TP-Link Deco BE11000 Wi-Fi 7 Tri-Band Whole-Home Mesh Wi-Fi System 3 Getting 1.25gb speeds
Benthum 1.0I can confirm this one works well. Gives you all the settings you need to overcome the downsides that happen with most Mesh systems.
bstpeg 1.0I recently bought a Deco mesh system from Costco that came with 3 nodes. I put the main node on my first floor connected to my router (in your case it would connect to the ONT and serve as the router, or you could keep using the router and put the mesh in AP mode, which I did). I put a wireless node in my basement and another on my second floor and I’m very happy with the setup.
ChrisHanSolo 1.0This is my response from a different thread but this applies: A sample size of one but I wanted to give you my perspective. I used to have RBR50 with 1 satellite with wireless back haul. I get 1.2GBPS at from my ISP. I used to get really good speeds (5-600) everywhere, but about 2 months ago it started getting worse and eventually died. I’ve had these for 5-6 years so I got my money worth. I bought Deco BE11000 and had it for a week. I hated it, it was unstable and the internet speeds were all over the place. Compared to my Orbi, I got higher speeds (800 deco vs 500/600 Orbi) when I was close to the router, but worse speeds (80/90 deco vs 200 Orbi) when I was far away from the router. Some of my smart devices didn’t even connect at all. My work computer kept on dropping connection constantly even at 15 feet! Then tried the 770. The firmware was a mess. Constant dropping connections with several drops. My TV which is about 20ft away kept on losing WiFi and it drove me crazy. Specially at the price of 770. I finally went back to RBK752P and it’s been a dream. I get 800+ pretty much everywhere in the house and connection has been rock solid. Take that for what at worth!
DreamArez 1.0Are you adverse to installing access points? I’d recommend going the Ubiquiti route if you’re not. If you are, grab the Deco’s off eBay and you’ll save some money plus get full fat tri band WiFi 7. https://ebay.us/m/35O3hp If you want to get equipment on a budget, Woot regularly has Arris equipment for dirt cheap. I can’t attest to how reliable they are at scale, but I hooked my parents up with a 3 pack on WiFi 6E for $60 and they’ve had no issues. https://www.woot.com/category/computers/networking-communication
HotSlothsInYourArea 1.0Just got this a week and a half ago. Easy setup, rock solid connection since.
JJViper4 1.0I got the 3 pack Deco BE11000 from Costco about 4 months ago and haven't had any issues. It solved all the the Wi-Fi problems I was experiencing with Spectrum's provided router.
Key-Teach9045 1.0I bought the TP-Link BE11000 from Costco as well. I set them up in AP mode and turned off the Routers Wi-Fi. Both of the units are connected via Ethernet to the router for back-haul. They are providing 800+ Mbps throughout our 1700 sq ft bungalow. They have worked well with our HomeKit devices - some are 2.4 GHz wi-fi, and HomePods.
madstached 1.0The be 11000 are the latest with Wi-Fi 7. Looks like they have really good backhaul so even if you're not connecting the access points over wire, you'll still maintain good connection. I wouldn't worry too much about the gaming
