If you plan on using for myq garage openers, then this. I've tried about 5 different routers including orbi and this works with connecting to myq due to being able to separate 2.4ghz from 5ghz into separate SSID. Also I added 2 additional decos that are ac instead of ax for $50 extra to extend my network without a hitch.
Just want to understand clearly, are you saying Orbi won't connect to myq garage opener? Thanks

I purchased & installed this about a few months ago, my old set up was a unifi based setup and honestly that sucked compared to this.

Finally for a change I have a solid reliable Wi-Fi network all around the house with out the family complaining about drops. I have a wired back haul between all 3 x60 satellites. A very important thing to note is you can't have any d-link switches anywhere in your home.

My home is about 3200 sq foot with a pretty decent back yard. Although I am a techie I just got tired of tweaking around the router settings and as I purchased from Costco I had the warm and fuzzy feeling of retuning If it did not pan out. More importantly this allows me to extend the mesh with a stand alone satellite which you can pick up for cheap in eBay.

This X60 at the $220 price point has been a rock solid choice for me, sure I don't get granular controls with a great web ui, but I now have a reliable and functional Wi-Fi network at home and reasonable controls to control network access for my kids.

Now my brother and one of my good friends who is no techie has it too and finally for a change all 3 of us are not whining about our home networks.

Dm me any questions or post in the thread.
Do you know what the issue is with D-Link switches? I may have one or two somewhere in the mix and would know what the issue is with them to BOLO for replacements.

Great deal, I'm glad I waited. I was going to get the Orbi for $20 more and slightly faster speeds but with this $70 off the Deco AX3600 seems like a no brainer for $90 cheaper. After some research it seems a lot of people dislike the Orbi software. Plus I think these look nicer as well.

Dual band vs tri-band. If you're planning on plugging in each hub to Ethernet doesn't really matter, but if they're gonna be talking to each other over WiFi then you want tri-band.
These are triband….

Got it, the biggest problem with these is that tp link has moved to the subscription model with their home shield and parental controls offering, basically replicating the orbi approach for generating revenue.

Someone else had said these don't interloper across nodes, so the furthest away node still can only connect to the main node even if they are very far from one another (don't have these yet, so would be good if any owner could confirm this)

X60 seem to come with home care and this one with home shield. Anyone know the difference? Are parental controls free on either?

Edit
Looking thru the features, looks like home care (with x60) has the ability to set bedtime for weekdays and weekends plus time limit for free. whereas home shield (available with this router) only has ability to set everyday bed time for free. Time limits and flexible bed time options seem to be a pro(paid) feature. Can anyone confirm this?

If so x60 is a better deal (don't need tri band as I have wired backhaul)

How do these compare against something like the Eero 6 Pro mesh setup?

I did get the orbi, I knew that it does not give exclusive 2.4 vs 5ghz but thought it'll connect based on the devices... So will this never connect to myq?
I have an orbi. Had the older rbk50 before and now have their newer rbk7. Never had a single issue with using myq

I actually had tried out a deco mesh when I wanted to upgrade from my orbi rbk50. It gave me a ton of issues with my tp link wireless switches. I found out that with the deco you CANNOT choose a wireless channel. The setting doesn't exist on their app. It'll always be set to auto and that caused my switches to constantly lose connection, making them unusable. I use the switches to control the small heaters and camera monitors in my toddlers room.

With orbi, I could specify and set a specific channel. And I've had 0 issues with my Orbi. I returned the deco and stuck with orbi.

Do the satellites have Ethernet out port? I would like to hardwire my console into the satellite, wondering if that's possible.

Each device has two ethernet ports, and ethernet is bidirectional. I have one of my satellite units connected to a PC via ethernet, I get 90% my modem's throughput from the other end of the house. I am going to try a powerline ethernet backhaul to see if I can get those speeds higher.

I bought these when on sale 2 months ago at $269... I'll ask for the $9 from chat, but otherwise these have been rock solid for me for almost 6000 sq foot home. Wireless backhaul only. I'm a fan.
