The WiFi coverage disappointed

I have been waiting for three years to reestablish my WiFi in my home following a fire that destroyed my previous WIFI MESH network. Extremely easy to setup once you login to your account. The only issue I experienced and it was an annoying one that could have been resolved with a preemptive statement in their instructions for logging into the TP app. It requires 2-factor authentication and will only use an email address and not a cell-phone SMS text message. They have difficulty in sending the emails to a regular email provider like Comcast. The 2-factor wait time times out long before you receive the code in an email… if you ever do. It was the only issue that I have encountered thus far. I found the first level support less than sufficient to explain why I could not get logged in, though he did insist that I needed to have a google or yahoo email but did not explain why. We spent over an hour and then he transferred me to his manager who said we would have to wait for the second tier support to call me in the morning. Which to their credit they did… but just after hanging u p with support, I tried to login from my iPad and I had face recognition setup and it bypassed the 2-factor email requirement. YAY that I didn’t need to revert back to the rental modem/router. The interface is intuitive though different approach than Comcast branded solution. Haven’t done much accept setup the bands and named the equipment. I have all network bands configured except you cannot separate 5&6 they are banded together as one for MLO. I have a guest, MLO, and IOT network setup for the SmartHome devices. All seem to have reconnected that were connected previously and 2 more have connected that had failed to connect with a single modem/router on the extreme end of the WiFi network. I have a 4k 4 story home so I really needed this. Two are on the on the 3rd floor on opposite ends of the house connected via Ethernet. The third is connected wirelessly on the first floor directly below the second unit. Coverage is terrific and performance a boost over the Comcast rented - modem/wifi router. I will update this as I explore more options and pursue network security options. Bottom line is simple out of the box setup and configuration with great coverage and speed. Only downside is they are L A R G E units so plan your placements ahead of time.

My family bought this/these units to replace an older Netgear RAX 200. I am brand loyal and felt weird turning away from Netgear after 2 generations of problem-free wireless routers. I went with TP-LINK because of the good ratings on performance and user-friendly app features (over Netgear's Orbi) and went with a mesh system because of increasing internet traffic across a household. It made sense to go mesh because of interference issues across multiple rooms and being in a multi-household building. Making the switch to a mesh system seemingly eliminated all dead spots in the house, as it should've by design, but with more legacy devices in my home, this translated to ultra stable connectivity in the house. Away went any interence issues regardless of peak use times in our building. The one thing I do look forward to getting use to is the WiFi 7 abilities of this router as we get newer equipment. As for now, we couldn't ask for more for our gaming, multiple streaming televisions and dvr equipment, several computers and laptops, mobile devices and a few smart appliances. We have no need to connecting a wireless 'backhaul' to improve speed versus using the 3 parts of this router spread across our home wirelessly. This unit cost a pretty penny, but was easy to set up within a few minutes of unboxing. The app provides plenty of features, including diagnostics for each piece of the mesh system, speed tests, statistics on data used, and ease of general internal software / updates. I have no complaints in the use of this system other than my own willingness to invest in the initial purchase - which isn't for everybody. I hope this review helps. I would highly recommend DECO BE95 and would easily purchased this again.

Easy to setup. Must use a phone app instead of an app and a web page. It has a web page but very minimal settings through it. It was reliable and functioned with a great signal strength and quality. If you want a latest gen wifi for someone that you setup and walk away from - this would be it. It would also be behind a modem / fw. Note - I sent mine back as it did not meet my needs working with the archer router as well as not having a more settings related web interface sadly. But testing - worked great.

I won't go into the weeds about this system. It's easy to set up, fast, allows you to split the SSID between bands (big plus), and is very reliable. I had a few different (very popular) brands previous to these and I had issues with speed and they would need to be rebooted at least once a week or we would start to have issues. These are rock solid and I rarely reboot them. The only negatives would be that some features (mainly > basic parental controls) are subscription based and the app doesn't have all functions access...for some things you really need to use a web browser for some settings. Otherwise, could not be happier. I bought a 2 node set for my in-laws and they've had zero issues as well. They look nice as well rather than with some models/brands where you have these big antennas sticking out. These blend in to your decor. Over the years, I've used them all - Asus, Netgear, Linksys, etc. but I'm a TP-Link fan now!
