TP-Link Deco M9 Plus Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi with Built-in Smart Home Hub, Up to 4500 sq ft Coverage, Works with Amazon Echo/Alexa, Wi-Fi Booster, Antivirus and Parental Controls, Pack of 2

This product is much cheaper than others because it is dual band not tri-band. This means that the communication between the units that makes the mesh work is done on the same 5G radio band that your other devices are connected to. Tri-band routers have an extra band that is dedicated for the mesh communication or backhaul leaving the normal 5G band empty for devices. Hence, if you are using ethernet to do the backhaul you don't need the third band in your mesh WiFi as your devices will never use it making this product a winner at half the price. I had two Netgear Orbi's before this one including the utterly dreadful RBR850 which simply would not work properly. I returned the unit twice. By comparison, these units work well, set-up is pretty straight forward and all the WiFi problems I had had with Orbi were solved. Strongly recommend if using Ethernet backhaul. I cant speak to how good it is using WiFi backhaul. read the other reviews for that. One downside is that TP-Link is Chinese and as you can access your mesh network from outside your home, it means that the data of how your network is performing is probably being captured on a server in Shenzhen, China. I run this in Access Point Mode meaning that the only data that Tp-Link gets is the devices IDs and which node they are connected to which I don't think is a problem. This is something to bear in mind if you intend to use this product as your network router.

Product Review: TP-Link Deco X60 I recently purchased the TP-Link Deco X60, and I must say I am thoroughly impressed and satisfied with my investment. This product is definitely worth its cost. The setup process was incredibly easy, and it paired seamlessly with my Etisalat router. One of the standout features of the Deco X60 is its exceptional performance. In most rooms of my double-story villa, I experienced the same internet speed as if I were directly connected via an Ethernet line. Even in the areas with slightly weaker signals, I only encountered a 10-15% loss in speed, which is still more than sufficient for my needs. What sets the Deco X60 apart is its extensive coverage. It effortlessly blankets my entire villa, ensuring a strong and stable connection in every corner. Moreover, it reaches up to 20 meters outside of my house, allowing me to stay connected even in my outdoor spaces. In conclusion, I highly recommend the TP-Link Deco X60 to anyone with a double-story villa or a large home. Its easy setup, excellent performance, and extensive coverage make it a top-notch choice for improving your wireless network. With this product, you can enjoy seamless connectivity throughout your entire property, both indoors and outdoors.

المنتج رائع جدا أوصى بشرائه قوي في التغطية

4 stars 3 units will not cover 5k sq ft as advertised. I had to get an extra one and now there are no dead spots. No big deal, just wish they hadn’t advertised something that’s simply not true. Other than that, easy setup and the app is decent. I’m not a very IT savvy person so if I can do it, most can.

Test speeds are good But 3 pcs couldn’t cover my house of 4000 sqft I added another unit and solved the problem

Easy to set up, works perfectly so far. App is decent as well.

very good product

It stop working after 2 months

UPDATE: so changed from Virgin to BT fibre 900. I can confirm that you do not need to use the BT Hub, just need to put in the generic username and password for access to BT. Can confirm speeds are handled at 900mb download and 110mb uploaded. Only had issues once with speeds but that was during the extreme heat in August not sure if the overhead cable was affected. Rebooted the actual BT ONT box and speeds were back to normal. The seamless transition between moving in the house works well. It shows you if there have been any attempted attacks which are blocked (only my son's devices 🤦) If any new device is added and I am not home I get notifications whether I am on a different wi-fi network or using the phone data network. NOTE: I HAVE ONLY GIVEN TECH SUPPORT ONE STAR BECAUSE I HAVE NOT HAD THE NEED TO USE IT. SO THAT SHOULD REALLY BE NEUTRAL. I CAN'T GIVE IT ANY MORE STARS AS I HAVE NOT USED IT SO CAN'T SAY HOW WELL THEIR TECH SUPPORT IS. I was sceptible at first as it has only one additional Lan port but having read many reviews, watching youtube videos I decided to go for the TP Link X20 - 3 Pack. Great things is the its Wi-Fi 6 which 2 of my devices utilise, also allows seemless transition from one router to another when moving through the house. I don't live in a huge house, its a terraced house from the 1930s however there were a few dead zones, whether its down to the thick walls or some other reason. In addition to the 3 pack, i also purchased a 5 port switch as i did have a few devices which i prefer to be hard wired, such a Playstation and also nVidia shield to stream 4k content from Netflix etc Set up is really easy, just download the Deco app, connect the one unit first to the modem (i have virgin media which i switched to modem mode) it recognised a connection did an update, allowed me to set up a password etc and then asked if i wanted to add another router, went to the bedroom connected the second device, followed the instructions and device recognised and updated - and repeated the same for the 3rd unit too. Note you only have to set up password, settings once for the first hub, router and the others just coppy the details. You then select an option on the app to allow for seaming connection which is meant to keep you connected on the network if you are moving from one floor to another I am due to change by internet provider from Virgin to the new BT fibre 900mb and I have been told that it should be as simple as plugging the network cable that currently goes into the virgin router into the modem / hub thing that BT install for their new fibre. I won't know this for sure until the end of March. The security built in gives you updates and also notify's you of potential or attempted attacks from external sources via the net and so far protected. You can manage devices and allow parental locks for children devices. Great router, no issues, easy set up.

The product is sold for delivery Belgium, but cannot be used, due to UK standard plugs, not compatible with Belgian power outlets. This is NOWHERE mentioned explicitly!!

The Deco X60 was very easy to install and works very well. It was delivered on schedule as promised. Happy to deal with PCLIVE again

Funciona muy bien. Vivo en una casa muy grande con paredes de piedra y es la única solución que me ha funcionado para tener cobertura en todas las estancias. El traslado entre hospots ni se nota. La app es muy completa. Todo perfecto

Great WiFi product
