TP-Link Deco W7200 vs TP-Link Deco X60 AX3000

Going mesh made a huge difference for me. I had/have great overall speed at the main router and anything plugged into it or in the same room, but the signal was not strong in other areas of the house, especially perimeter areas and outside where I had cameras. Switched to TP-Link Deco system and now I get strong signals and speeds everywhere.

Just a little further out it drops below 200. Signal is strong and hasn't dropped internet over the past few days. At the far end of the house I have the second unit setup and getting 100-150 mbps. Haven't had to use the 3rd unit yet

Been using it for a week now and no reboots and complete connectivity with all the computers and devices running. Since I do IT for a living I do hate their app as it is too simple and the web interface is a joke compared to the iPhone app's. The advanced feature just are not there for someone who knows what they are doing but the price is right and when I need my son to get offline I can easily toss him on the deny list and his gaming computer is offline. Don't need their subscription plan for that

Now they cover up to 650m2 home, they also are compatible with the Amazon Alexa device, so they will work with that and extremely easy to set up as I ...

Its speed is awesome. And its app is very nice to use. If you don't handing the reigns over to the device to basically control itself, then you will probably like this product. I think there is a lot of overlap between the non-technical consumer who wants good Wifi with easy setup, and the consumer who can tolerate a little lag when watching YouTube because their device's connection dropped for 30 seconds

Update #3: Success, FINALLY! Critical step to get this mesh system to work: Once installed, go to the Deco app -> Settings -> Advanced -> IPv6 -> Enable -> Reboot the Deco system [Ignore the following step if you're setting up for the first time] Then, "Forget Network" on all your devices that had been on this Deco Mesh network, then re-add all your devices to Deco Network, then restart all your devices (unplug, wait 30-sec, plug in and restart.) Lastly, confirm IPv6 is enabled in Deco app (same steps as above.) Check speeds with your phone or laptop using Speedtest or Fast(dot)com The steps above finally resolved the random disconnects and slowness, including my slow connections for web TVs. The connection speed is at least 10x higher and Netflix loads much quicker and with HD or 4k resolution! I was literally going to Factory Reset the Deco system and return it

I got this for the parental controls (to limit my kids daily time) and for whole house coverage. You have to pay a subscription fee to get the parental controls, which I did. The problem is that, unless you power the devices off, they download in the background (apps checking for updates, system updates, etc) . The two hour allocation would be used up while they were in school and I'd have to keep adding time after they got home

So once the TP-Link account is set up you then need to connect any of the x60 unit to your modem and then turn it all on. So turn the modem on first, ...

So far so good. Had appliance WiFi connectivity issues with the ORBI system and couldn’t get their customer service to figure it out. So I returned it and got the Tp-Link Deco. Now with the Deco, Initially had some connection issues with some appliance WiFi connectivity, however to-link customer service helped me problem solve it and no issues

Tech support was very helpful and guiding me through my issues, once I resolved those issues I got the system set up relatively quickly. The system is working well so far, and my son has not complained about having issues while he is gaming, so that is a major plus.

I have att 1GB fiber running to an ONT feeding the WAN port of a BGW210 gateway/router and was looking to upgrade the built in wifi of the BGW210 which has always had poor range and speed performance. I chose the TPLink Deco product family given the great price point for the features they had to offer. The Deco App is user friendly but very limited in regards to router setup so I had to do most of the advanced configuration on the BGW to get both pieces of equipment to play nice. The BGW has no true bridge mode but I was able to get it to act as a stand-alone gateway for the Deco by setting up ip pass through, disabling dhcp and most of the firewall options

Power everything down, reconnect everything as it was before (my original router, AP, etc). Right back where I started, which is going to have to do for now. My time is too valuable to spend messing around with a system that purports to work right out of the box but completely fails to do so. I don't want to paint with too broad a brush, but I have to say that I've never been overjoyed with any tp-link product that I have purchased
