Description

Maximum wireless transmission rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE standard 802.11 Specifications. Range and coverage specifications along with the number of connected devices were defined according to test results under normal usage conditions. Actual wireless transmission rate, wireless coverage, and number of connected devices are not guaranteed, and will vary as a result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects and obstacles, 2) network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location, network complexity, and network overhead and 3) client limitations, including rated performance, location, connection quality, and client condition. mu-mimo capability requires both the mesh system and client devices to support MU-MIMO. tp-link homecaretm powered by Trend MicroTM (home care) is included for 3 years from date of activation at no additional cost, after which would require an opt-in subscription at an additional cost. Opting-out of this subscription will disable certain features.

  • Throughput is great, some caveats
Style: 2-pack
First off, I'd recommend getting the 3-pack unit as it's only $20 more than the two pack. If you don't need all 3 you have a spare. The product description says "WiFi Router/Extender," and I should have been more careful in selecting this product, as I had in my mind that it would allow me to extend an existing wifi signal (an existing SSID). It does not. I should have read the details more carefully. I saw “Wifi” and “Extender” and good reviews and bought it. It was the first Wifi Extender that didn't have a ton of bad reviews that I could find. And it does provide whole house coverage nicely; it just doesn't extend your existing wifi signals / SSIDs. This is a mesh wireless network kit. One of the units MUST be hard wired into your network via RJ45 cable (included). The default mode for the unit is as a wifi router (yes, it does DHCP). Once you've set it up you can go back into the config and change it to Wireless Access Point (WAP) mode. This is what I did. A few notes: Setup requires a Smartphone/Tablet. Requirements: iOS 9.0 or later, Android 4.4 or later AND Bluetooth 4.0 or later. You cannot have two separate SSID names for your 2.4 and 5 GHz networks. Whatever name you give the wireless network is used for both. I did not like this. You can selectively turn off either of the two frequencies. This unit IS A ROUTER by default. It has a Quad-core CPU and includes 2 LAN/WAN Gigabit Ethernet Ports. It includes TP-Link Mesh Technology: MU-MIMO, Auto Path Selection, Self-Healing, AP Steering, Band Steering, and Beamforming. You can get a cable modem and plug these units in as your only router and it will do DHCP and hand out IP addresses. It also comes with some malware protection. That being said, for those of us who already have a router doing DHCP you really need to put the Deco in WAP mode or have two DHCP devices on your network, which is BAD. There's an interesting 11-page TP-LINK forum thread (topic 160293) about a feature in the DECOs where if your router stops answering DHCP requests (say you're rebooting it or upgrading firmware) the DECO will detect that DHCP requests are not being answered and start handing out IP addresses. And apparently there is no way to turn this off. This “feature” has made lots of people very angry. It seems like if you set it up to use the same subnet for the Deco DHCP as your main router, but carved out a DHCP range for the DECO that is in your main router's static range that you never use you might be able to avoid this issue. YMMV. Firmware updates take about 5 minutes per WAP. I set up the unit yesterday and updated the firmware. There's already another update today. Not sure if this is the status quo or not. Since it is a router, I guess that's reasonable. There are fixed timers in the app so the hard-wired units are up long before the timer on the app runs out. ☹ The wireless slave units on the other hand take longer than the app timers, so it freaks out when the timer runs out and it's not done. It shows a HUGE number of a true remaining time. The good news is that it eventually updates successfully. Patience, young padawan. 😉 Updating the firmware on a second unit is a little glitchy. It keeps asking over and over it I want to update it. There's another button behind to Update Firmware. I eventually chose “Later” and was then able to select the Update Firmware button. Sigh ... You'll want the manual if you're going to use the router mode; you can find it at the TP-LINK website. Note that the Advanced features that allow you to configure the router disappear off the screen when you switch it to AP mode. I got these units to increase the wireless coverage in one room in my house where there's a ROKU and a TABLO. The performance on the TABLO was unacceptable. I setup the units, and then plugged both the TABLO and the ROKU into the Deco with RJ45 cables. Worked like a champ. Side note - you can turn off the LED completely or put it in 'night mode' and specify a time range for the light to be off. Nice. Overall, the app needs work. The ability to disable DHCP completely really needs to be added; it does not have this feature. The ease of setup was okay. The throughput was great. ... show more

  • Over promise / under-deliver
Style: Add-on unit
My review is really for both Deco m9 pro and m5. Most of my stationary device have good wifi connections but ALL of our phones in the household are having connectivity issues. Every time I move around the house my old Samsung s8 and now the new Samsung s10 loses - internet connection BUT NOT THE WFI. It just shows as !W icon and until I turn on/off the wifi it stays that way. For the seamless wifi switching mesh tech - this is BS! I thought I'd give this new tech a try but it looks like I'm going back to the good old powerful wifi router. ... show more

  • Worthwile for larger homes - plus a setup tip
Style: 2-pack
This system is very impressive. I set up the 2-pack version in my MIL's 3,000 square foot house. She previously only had the Verizon FIOS modem/router installed, and I had added a range extender, but she was only getting about 9 Mbps in the living room, with a lot of annoying drops. After some fiddling with the Deco M5 to update the firmware on both units, she is now getting 80 Mbps in the living room and the connection is very stable. Awesome! One tip while setting up: the app is super simple to follow, but you will be creating a new WiFi network, so you will need to update all devices to use the new network. If you need to update your firmware on the Deco (which is likely), your phone will probably revert to picking up the old network while the devices reboot. I didn't realize this initially, and thought I was getting slow speeds - but that was because I was back on the Verizon modem/router network. Once I re-selected the new network in Settings - super fast speeds were back! Good luck! ... show more

  • Works - But not a an Access Point (AP)
Style: 2-pack
It's important to know that this mesh routers are not an AP. It will connect to your AP router (I have a Frontier router with coax cable attached in the back - see photo) using supplied cat5e cable thus creating a new network. The DecoM5 does not have that coax connector. So, in this case all peripherals connected to my AP will not be accessible by computers connected in the DecoM5 and vise versa. I have dead spots in my home I needed to fill and this was a the best solution without breaking the bank. It is dual band with 2.4 & 5Ghz and will automatically use the best possible band available at time of connection. Set up is easy using the app. Connecting additional units had some hiccups but corrected itself. I just made sure that the additional unit was close by during that set up before moving it to another room which is about 40 feet away with a kitchen wall separating it. The units does feel warm at the top but does not get overly heated. I love the parental controls (for my 11 yr old) and security features that come with as well. The 2 cat5 ports in the back of each unit is a must for me. Others don't have it. If you are able to connect the units with a cat5e, then you're guaranteed a much faster throughput. ... show more

  • Absolutely amazing product! Works great with Spectrum!
Style: Add-on unit
I purchased this to replace a cable modem/router combo unit I was using in a small office space. My Spectrum Internet speeds are provisioned for 100mbps/10mbps. With my previous modem/router, I was receiving somewhere between 20-30mbps on wireless and about 50-60mbps wired. I replaced the modem with a Spectrum modem and bought this product. My speeds are up to 120mbps on Wi-Fi. The internet feels faster and more stable. I’m very satisfied with this product! Highly recommend this! It was simple to set up and the range is incredible! ... show more
