Skip the 3-pack X20 and get the 3-pack X60 from Costco for 20 bucks more (if you are or know a Costco member).

Could you provide some context instead of leaving useless comments?

I have used TP-Link products for a long time and have never had a single issue. Their Kasa line of smart switches and plugs is fantastic IMO, especially factoring in the price component. Their routers are also solid, although admittedly not as feature rich historically as some other brands like ASUS or Netgear. On the other hand, my Netgear routers all had connectivity issues and died after a few years due to unstable firmware updates. My TP-Link mesh system has been running without a problem for over a year.

I bought the M3 set from Amazon about 3 weeks ago, anyone know if they will price match? Or do I have to reorder and then return under the old purchase to get the difference?

Currently have Fios w/ 500 up and 500 down. I'm hardwired via into the wall (got a switch with ethernet plugs) in which the landlord upstairs has given me access to the internet, but the wifi is lacking where I am (deadzone). Done some research on an access point or a router (that can become an access point). Any recommendations on best budget friendly access point/router(has a feature to become an access point) that will utilize the full 500 up and 500 down?

So, a follow up question. We currently have an ancient Uverse modem/router combo. If I got any of these new systems, would I just set up the current modem/router to pass through to the new router, or would I effectively need a while new modem?

That's one of the cheaper triband mesh units. I recommended it based on it's price to a friend and so far it has been working without issues. He said the set up was easy.
What's the criteria used to know if you need two vs three?

Anyone have any experience with the TP Link powerline adapters? My router is in the basement and I need a decent solution for the xbox which resides in a 2nd story bedroom where the wifi if so so. Unfortunately moca is not an option but looking for something simple for a stable low latency connection for the xbox.

Thanks,

-Guru
All powerline adapters are trash if the wiring in the building you are using is trash. Just don't bother making the gamble unless you are aware of the state of your wiring. Buy a mesh router or an access point.

I recommend running an extremely long ethernet cable and skipping wifi. You will never get advertised speeds on wifi and anyone who says otherwise is a liar trying to cope. My home network uses enterprise ubiquiti hardware with wires run throughout my home for access points from my dream machine pro. We use Verizon Fios with gigabit. We do not get advestised speeds on wifi.

You best bet is the ethernet cable.

Yeah, I understand I probably may not get the 500 over wifi, but would like to get close as possible. I want to be able to have the freedom of bringing out my laptop and devices and use the wifi rather than my own phone internet which I have a limited capacity of fast internet. Yes, I know I probably won't need that 500 Up and Down on those devices, but just wanted to see my options. I am running a switch, but would like an access point for the convenience. I'm trying to get the best budget friendly AP I can without breaking the bank. I don't mind putting out the extra money as I know i'll use it for years, but trying to save as much as possible.

EDIT: I see now that there may not be a way to have separate 2.4 and 5GHz SSID's. That sucks. TP-Link definitely targeting very normal folks out there without any kind of wifi complications.


--------- original comment ------


I'm interested in the Deco S4 as wifi access point. With that onemesh comment, does that mean only one ssid can be extended, but if you use the units themselves for AP, can you have multiple SSID's in the mesh?

I know there are wifi extenders. Does the single SSID limitation only apply to the wifi extender function? Or the entire mesh is only limited to 1 ssid?

Does this provide separate SSID's for 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks? I'm assuming mesh is only for the 5GHz? So do you designate one of the AP's as your 2.4GHz provider? Or can each device also provide a different 2.4GHz ssid? Not mesh, just adding more 2.4GHz AP's?

I have 2.4GHz cameras still, so my understanding is that this won't help the 2.4GHz cameras right?
You cant have a true Mesh with multiple SSIDs. Thats a limitation of Mesh technology, not anything to do with TP-Link. If you want to use multiple SSIDs what you have is a multi node network with wireless backhaul, not a mesh. Yes these devices are designed to be usable by people who want it to work without figuring out how to pair backhaul channels and constantly mess with roaming values. I used to have my house filled with OpenWRT devices but that got old, I upgraded to the AX5700 and never looked back.

Do you know if you can have a non-mesh 2.4GHz network but a mesh 5GHz network, and have them concurrently but on different ssid's?

I don't mind if the 2.4GHz isn't mesh, but I do need a separate ssid for the 2.4GHz.

Can the 3 mesh units be split to two different households? For Example use 2 of them in one house and one of them in another house (of course with different networks...)

The other house have separate router. I'm guessing it is good idea if you have two small/medium houses
