I use the deco x60. It’s a few years old, but works well. I had it set up as access points with a wired back haul at my old place and it’s set up as wireless mesh now. Both offer good speeds and good coverage. You might get better coverage if you spend 3x on unifi or something. But it’s a solid system, and in my opinion, possibly the best system at its price. My only issue is that I can’t manually move a device from one mesh point to another or force a device to stay on the 2.4 band. Some of the deco products support that, but apparently mine doesn’t.

4 y/o Netgear Nighthawk MR60 whacked out 5 days ago -couldn’t keep but a few of the 70 devices that previous work fine. I added one ring 5 GHz camera and everything started to get the shakes. Hard boots slow adding of devices I couldn’t get anything to work. Many hours of frustration!!! ordered a TP-Link Deco‘s X 60 3 unit for $140. Amazon had an X 55 three node for $150 AI scoped out my picture and suggested x60, why the x55 gives 3 ethernet ports vs x60 with 2. Hardwiring 1 of 2 satellites, should have no problems for next 5 years - right? Any thoughts.

i’ve had a TP-LINK deco X60 for the last two weeks and I’ve had devices show up as off-line in the app but they haven’t like ring cameras. I also find that some devices that I name in their app won’t keep the name so I’m struggling trying to figure out what’s what in the list of devices of 75 that I have. I have an open ticket with him for the last three days with all the examples of these quirks. I picked it up at Costco for $120 reduced from $140 for the three no system this replaced my Netgear Nighthawk MR 60 that was flaky. the Deco system is actually showing a decent speed across even the third satellite that is not hardwired as the second one is. So on a 600 Mb service to the modem I’m getting 3 to 400 Mb as I measure devices out on any of the nodes. So generally, the Deco is working as best as I can tell, except for not being able to have an organized list of devices in their app.

At just over £200, the TP-LINK Deco X60 system works really well for me. I'm in the UK, also Virgin Media on 1gig. Covers 3 floors no problem also the garage, garden and driveway. Good software with it too.

I second the Deco, good software with it too.

Okay thanks. That's how I understood it as well, just wanted to make sure my intuition was correct haha. I just bought a Deco x60 mesh system and plan on setting it up tonight. Hoping I can FINALLY play my Playstation Portal without the resolution tanking and the connection giving up after 5 minutes. I've been using a wifi extender (which I know are certainly not great) and I don't think the Portal enjoys that...

Agreed, Deco are a good budget choice. I've found it's possible to mix-and-match generations as I have two XE75s and one X60 all on the same mesh. I've found them pretty easy to configure and live with, at least for my "normal" needs. (i.e. I'm not trying to run a bunch of VLANs or anything fancy)

I’ve had a somewhat weird, experience as well, although not the same as yours. I have three X60s and set nodes 2 and 3 up via wired back haul. No issues for a little over a year. Then all of a sudden nodes 2 and 3 started routinely going out. I switched the order of the nodes multiple times, deleted and setup the network from scratch multiple times, swapped all Ethernet cables for new ones, etc. No matter what, it simply does not like node 3 being hard wired to node 2. I finally gave up and settled on node 2 being wired and node 3 being connected wirelessly. No problems since. Every once in a while I try to plug node 3 into the Ethernet cable and sure enough, node 2 and 3 go out. It makes no sense. Otherwise no complaints and really hasn’t affected my range and speed. 🤷‍♂️
