Purchased this last week and am thrilled with the results. No more dead spots, solid fast signal, and range everywhere! I have tried others in the past with little if any results. This one actually works, and works great! I highly recommend it. Setup was easy as well.
I am currently using this at my double storey 2300 sq ft home and it works perfectly. My Internet subscription is for 100mbps and I get almost full speed around the house. I also like the parental control feature very much.
Hmm, seems pretty legit, and definitly one of the more economical mesh systems. I need to get a system for my Mom, this looks like it will do fine for her.
Nice review. Thinking about getting this. One question, does it automatically switch between 2.4g and 5g network or I have to select which one to use? Is a 700sq feet apartment can still benefit from using this mesh router?
I have a tp link access point in my garage.. which is not joined its about a 3ft Walkway. Will this system keep my garage connected or will I need another node for garage. I'm hopeless with sort of tech.cheers
Dude this a router why would you connect it to another router? Are you making a video for double routers? Or you hooking this up to a modem for internet? I am confused
I have 2. One connected in home to router on 2nd floor of open loft. The 2nd one is outside in our RV about 150 feet away. Sometimes it works perfect for hours to watch Netflix, Wi-Fi, etc other times it won’t detect deco and won’t reboot. It’s driving me nuts. Should I order another one to put on back patio. To extend to the rv?
Any ideas on why my Deco is only pushing 30mpbs and at night time it hits 120-180mbps? My phone gets 220mbps every time while on the wifi. If my PC is connected through wired... it gets a nice 250mpbs. No clue whats going on.
You say that your wireless speeds are 100~ down and 30~ up. If you plug into the wired port, what kind of speeds to you get with that? And what kind of speeds do you get if you connect directly to your comcast xfinity router? Just trying to get an idea if there is any loss of speed between your xfinity router and this mesh router.
Excuse me, i just wanted to know if one of the decos has to be connected at the modem? Or i can can just buy one and connected wirelessly and put it anywhere?
what internet speeds do you pay for through xfinity because they seem to choke your speeds sometimes. do you pay for 120 up or is that just what you are getting independent from what you are paying for?
I have AT&T modem. Do I have to power off my modem and remove backup battery, disconnect my old router from modem before moving on as per next step instruction?
I need to access the 2.4 . my cameras won't use the 5. how can I get them connected? once they're connected they stay connected but I can't get there. I do see an option to use only the 2.4 but most everything I use is using the 5g. remember having to walk quite a ways from my house to get the 2.4 - but my cameras are USB to household current and I don't have any way to get standard power away from my house.
So wait as a router mode does this replace the router it's connected to? Can I just have it separate to my actual router? So I will have 2 separate names / router names
Question. Can you use the lan ports to connect a lan only supported device in any of the pods that are not directly connected to the router? If that makes any sense
Every Deco after the first, just follow the app instructions; plug in ac adapter for additional Deco, wait for blue flashing light and use app to connect it to the mesh. No wired connection needed.
W Plater My modem and router were separate and I disconnected the router and used the same name and password. You will need to go into your router and shut off the wifi.
not much of a difference. If I have to pick one, definitely the M5. the M4 uses WiFi to connect to each other (the Decos with each other). the M5 uses Bluetooth.

I’ve watched about 7 videos about these and yours by far was the best. Thank you 😊

Great video. Which would you advise. The deco m4 or deco m5? I am torn!
Is there any changes of speed deffer from main router to other 2 pack??
Nice review. Thinking about getting this. One question, does it automatically switch between 2.4g and 5g network or I have to select which one to use? Is a 700sq feet apartment can still benefit from using this mesh router?
automatically switch it depends needs your phone.
Very well demonstrated. Dont find such a detailed walkthrough on TP LINK site as well
Great video! Very thorough and comprehensive review!
EXCELLENT REVIEW. WELL PRESENTED. VERY INFORMATIVE. THANK YOU EBPMAN, MUCH APPRECIATED.
EXCELLANT Video ,I will Buy This

It's both. It can act as an Access point for your existing router.
thanks for uploading !
How would u compare this against the amplifi mesh solution?

I have a 150mbps internet speed and I can only get 30mbps with the Decos!!! What's wrong with that?? Can you please help me???

Connect to modem or router ? I am bit confused. Would you please clarify ? Thanks
@@BlueApe57 Thanks .
Most modems double as routers..very few modems out there are only modems
Excuse me, i just wanted to know if one of the decos has to be connected at the modem? Or i can can just buy one and connected wirelessly and put it anywhere?
Hello, I have Vanish IPV can this still be used with the Deco system? Would you recommend the deco over the Orbi?

How do you set them up as wired together with Ethernet cables? I will need to run an Ethernet cable far away for one of the units..
Can I disconnect the Ethernet cable that connects the first deco with the router or it will loose connection with the router?? And if yes, how?
Can my main router still be used to connect to whilst this is set up?
Question. Can you use the lan ports to connect a lan only supported device in any of the pods that are not directly connected to the router? If that makes any sense
Yes
Hello, can you add more than 3 ?
Hello I already configured my main deco and already connected but it prompt no internet... Do I need to disable my old wifi modem ssid ?
Thanks for the help!
great help !!
On the 2nd Deco, you just need to plug the power and the app will detect it? Or you need to connect the 2nd deco to the wired connection?
Every Deco after the first, just follow the app instructions; plug in ac adapter for additional Deco, wait for blue flashing light and use app to connect it to the mesh. No wired connection needed.
wired connection is not required for the slave Decos but I'd still recommend having them wired to get full speeds and stability.
Do the deco have wifi extension..how do i set up to used as a wifi extender..
Nice review
This is a great system
is there better than there 9plus?
Does it work with 5gh ?
6:50 min you cheated. I was doing the setup myself and this password part gave me hell.
Can I use the same network name and password that is assigned to Fios modem/router?
W Plater My modem and router were separate and I disconnected the router and used the same name and password. You will need to go into your router and shut off the wifi.
yes. just set the Decos in AP (Access Point) Mode.
Confused... title says M4, description says M3...
WTF is that tapping noise? It's driving me crazy!
Me too :D:D:D I guess the table (or he) is knocking against the camera tripod.... Sad because it's super annoying :(
@@GabrielAndroczky I didnt even notice, now i cant unhear... thank you very much lol
What’s that thumping sound? 🤔
My att gives me 50 mbs download and the newer deco s4 gives me 16.
The mesh is meant to divide the total wifi to different areas in the house so 16 seems about right
M4 or m5 which is recommended
not much of a difference. If I have to pick one, definitely the M5.
the M4 uses WiFi to connect to each other (the Decos with each other). the M5 uses Bluetooth.
