TP-Link Deco X50(2-pack) AX3000Mbps Whole Home AI-Driven Mesh WiFi 6 System, Dual-Band WiFi Booster with 3x Gigabit Ports, Coverage up to 4,500 ft2, Connect up to 150 devices, HomeShield Security

1 month after installing: still superb. I cannot fault it. I also love the parental controls which allow me to create profiles for each of my children and assign their wi fi devices. I can then set an age limit for content, set a bedtime on their wi fi connection and also cut the wi fi connection to all of their devices if I need to. ....... Original review: I got a mesh system because our router is downstairs (about 10m away) and my home office is upstairs at the back of the house so our 56-60 Mbps wi fi download speed sitting next to the router was approx 0.3-3 Mbps by the time the wi fi signal reached my office. Wi fi and internet connection were unstable, lots of web page loading errors and web meetings frequently froze. With the Deco M5 system I'm getting a rock solid 50-54 Mbps download throughout the house from a ~56Mb max speed service. In total we have about 20 wi fi devices with 12-14 of them actually using wi fi bandwidth at any one time. The speed is not impacted by this level of use and dual band mesh seems to be perfectly adequate (I also looked at tri-band systems with a dedicated backhaul but decided the additional cost was probably not worth it - so far this is the right decision). I bought the 3 node Deco M5 system but have found that 2 nodes in our size of home gives equal performance with one node connected to the router as the main unit and the other node positioned downstairs at the back of the house. Set-up was incredibly easy. I downloaded the Deco phone app and it walked me step by step. No network knowledge needed so long as you know which is the LAN port on your router and can plug the supplied cable into it. After that, it's just tapping your phone screen. I had all three mesh nodes set up within 15 mins, I moved each device over to the mesh wi fi network, switched off the wi fi coming from the original router so that devices could not connect to it again and everything has worked perfectly. A great system if you just want something that just works and is easy to setup!

Whilst our house isn't that big, trying to get decent wi-fi coverage throughout has been difficult. With the main telephone jack located in the study at one end of the house, the signal from the ISP provided router (a BT Homehub) would drop out alarmingly by the time you reached the other end. Previous efforts to boost signal strength using powerline systems or wi-fi booster had been partially successful but inelegant and problematic. I was looking for something that would give us a stable, uniform wi-fi network that was easy to set up and maintain and also user friendly. A mesh system seemed to be the way to go. Having looked a various options in detail on-line I went for the TP-Link Deco system. Not only were online review generally positive, but I was also familiar with other TP-Link products, such as their wi-fi enabled smart sockets and smart bulbs, all of which I had found worked well. I went for the triple pack to give me a primary hub, a second hub for the ground floor and one for the first floor. Having used the Deco now for a couple of months I could not be happier with the way it has performed. Set-up was ridiculously easy, with the Deco App on my mobile walking me through each step clearly and logically and checking as we went along that everything was working as intended. Nothing failed to complete and the new network was up and running in next to no time. Since then I can't report any fault or outages. Even when we changed ISP a few weeks later and swapped modems from the Homehub to a Fritzl Box the Deco system linked up without and fuss. Best of all, because we weren't relying on the wi-fi router built into the new modem we didn't have to reset all our many devices. The network management App also works very nicely, showing you exactly what you have connected to your network at any time and allowing you restrict or prioritise access for specific devices with just a couple of easy to follow steps. Adding new devices using WPS also no longer involves rushing from device to router in order to press a button; you can do it all through the Deco App whilst standing next to the device in question. I haven't played around with functions like parental controls yet, but from a quick look they seem relatively straightforward to operate. In terms of looks, the Deco units are nicely low profile and unobtrusive. One of the things that made me reject the mesh systems offered by BT and others was the sheer size and prominence of each the hubs. Lying flat, only more than a few centimeters high at their tallest point and with a single LED indicating each hub's status, the Deco units don'r draw the eye and are easy to mask behind other objects. You can even set the Hubs to 'night mode' which automatically turns off the LEDs after a certain time of day. All in all, the Deco system has provided exactly what I wanted; a stable, uniform wi-fi network that provides coverage across our house and is easy to manage and maintain. The hardware may not be cheap, but you get what you pay for in terms of performance and user friendliness. Highly recommended.

I bought these Deco X50 Mesh 6 as an upgrade to a TalkTalk router as this was causing issues, poor wifi in back of house and never worked well with extenders. So after much research of functionality need against price (you can easily buy something you don't need with these systems and spend huge sums!) I chose the Deco X50 double pack. Pro's Easy to set up via the app, only took me a few minutes and I am deffo not a tech or even close! Wifi signal improved a lot (have a 1911 victorian terrace on 3 floors) and having the same wifi name as previous meant did not need to reset anything eg. Computers, TV's etc. I got the double pack and then realised as good as it is, it was not really sufficient and should have got the 3 pack, so ordered another single one which paired immediately. Now have full coverage at full strength as I move around the house. The ports are also useful if needed. Cons The double pack came with 2 pin plugs so had to use adapters (very annoying) but not the end of the world, however the single additional one came with a UK plug! You will NOT get wifi any faster than your package allows for, what you should get is the max you pay for depending on placement of the routers around your home, and wall thickness. So all in all very happy, been running now for a month with no drop outs or anything.......it just works! Will likely upgrade in years to come to whatever the standard is by then, but for me this is all I need so getting a wifi 7 version would not make any difference as it gives me max speed for my package anyways with the X50 so why pay for something I don't need! Overall, would recommend if you have weak areas or use additional extenders that have different connection names.

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!!

Pratique, simple à mettre en place Très bonne portance

Great WiFi product

Unfortunately I made a huge mistake by getting this product from the UK The power adapters are not suitable for the Australian market and I would need to buy converters. Also I am unable to get Australian power adapters anywhere They are not sold as a separate item

Seems like this is an old/used piece. The box says it included a power adapter but it’s missing.
