I'm curious to see how well this router actually performs.

You gotta buy it and try it and then post an update here

"Wired Connections: Create high-performance, stable wired connections using one 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN and one Gigabit WAN/LAN ports on each Deco unit."

Can split between two homes and each unit is rated for 3,000 sqft coverage. Nice.

For me, it was a struggle to switch over to TP-Link from Linksys...but after reading all the horror stories with Velop, I bit the bullet

Then I saw the Velop triband wifi6 2 pack at Costco...even with this deal, that's still cheaper...I'd wait until I see firsthand accounts of how this works

Sigh waited for months for this to come out.. finally bought the x60 and then it comes out lol. If anyone buys please post a review of what you think. If you have an x60 or the orbi system currently would be great to hear how well this does. Thanks.

Also I wonder if the costco page is right? TP-LINK shows these should be AX6600's but they show as AX5700 on Costo's site.

Interesting that 2.5Gbps LAN ports are making their way onto units like this and the QNAP NAS servers. I don't see many 2.5/10Gbps switches out there priced toward the home user.

I think what Costco is selling is a gimped version of the AX6600 (Deco x90) - https://www.tp-link.com/us/deco-m...0(2-pack)/
The product listing does not mention this is x90 but instead Deco AX5700.

Interesting thank you for this. Appears the second 5ghz band is just a little slower but not that bad. Guess depends on what the real x90 sells for.

Link that you provided is not US website. Here is US website that says 5700

Ordered a set. Will see how they work.

Been trying to make an Xfinity Wifi 6 Gateway with their Xfinity Pods work for months, and they constantly drop connection. Was tempted to get the Costco Orbi Wifi 6 set during the Black Friday deal but the design of those were so ugly.

Hoping these work well.
