If you buy one, $77.99 each.
Buy two, sign up email first, get the $25 off coupon for $100. Them $130.98 for two.

Seems like very good deal for a 4 x 4 MUMIMO mesh router. You can set it as Smartthing hub + WiFi router/AP because it include zwave and zigbee. Can also set up as wireless mesh network node or add to the non pro version as sub node.

If you plan to use this as router, you can only set basic functions like DHCP/Bridge mode, set DNS, and ip reserve + port forwarding. I use two of them as mesh wifi AP with a Mikrotik as main router. working very well.

FYI I used to have these. They are discontinued by Samsung. The ones currently sold by Samsung looks the same but are built on licensed tech from Plume - I doubt they would work/mesh with these.

They worked pretty well and had a MSRP of $500 / 3 pack, but quickly fell to ~$100-125 each after being discontinued. $130 for two is hard to pass up but just be aware they aren't "current".

No idea what deep dark warehouse PC Richard dug these up from lol

I ordered 2. I live in NY and have bought appliances from PC Richards. So, I know they are trustworthy. I already have an AC2600, that I use as a main, and have 3 AC1300's as subs. I plan to move the AC1300's to my outbuildings and mesh the new AC2600's into the house. Thanks!

The plume version is not AC2600 and 2x2 only. This is 4x4 mumimo. If you worry about being discontinued, then use it as AP and add a nice cheap router in front of it. I use HEX as main router. These take care the wifi part perfectly and they have better looking than those octopus router

This ordering experience has been a throwback to the old internet days ...

No mention of the $25 Off offer to sign up (which is a great offer and most companies would have that prominently displayed)

Email confirm sent to my Junk folder

Still no email on shipping (most companies send that as soon as a label is printed)

When I check their website to Track, I get, 'We are unable to find information regarding your order.'

Only thing missing ... me having to call them, and speak to a person, to make sure my internet order went in. That person trying to 'up sell' (typically it was an Extended Warranty or additional install parts at an exorbitant price) and when I say, "No", my order getting cancelled a few days later. I am hoping I get to miss this last step of nostalgia Ha ha

Package got delayed. Got it yesterday. Added only one to my existing mesh (paper direction claim there is a limit of 5). I have a Pro connected to my router, as the base, and a Pro in the center, as a central sub. I have 3 AC1300's spread out, as distant subs.

I have WiFi speakers, throughout my house, that sometimes drop sound using Play-Fi. Last night, they did not lose sound. I am hoping this solve that issue.

Trying to decide if I add the last Pro to this mesh (to see if 6 works? [updates can make original paper directions obsolete]), or replace an AC1300, or use the last Pro for a new network (not sure the benefit of a new network, but based on it being a setup option, there must be one?)

Seems like this is still available, if you don't care for the smarthub junk, I was thinking that this can work as a pretty good qualcomm based 4x4 router/AP. But the Smart Things App is very restrictive, you can't have separate 2.4 and 5 Ghz SSIDs, what a waste of good hardware. Maybe there is a UI interface that you can directly login into the router and tweak it's settings. Also doesn't seem like the ethernet out port can be connected to a switch. So pass if you plan on using this is a router or AP.
