With wireless mesh (instructions below), it's one heck of a deal and blows DECO AX5000 deal out of the water, imho.
EDIT: UPDATED instructions for enabling MESH (thanks to @rbtcordell for the original source):
1-Setup your Main router completely.
2-Plug your child node using the wan port to the main router lan port, wait for a solid purple light on the child node before proceeding
3-Log into your main router web admin.
4-Click on CA at the bottom right.
5-Click on Connectivity and CA Router setup.
6-Click on both Add Wired and Add Wireless nodes buttons. Wait for the Add wireless button to re-enable.
7-Click Done adding Child Nodes and then Apply.
8-Now the child node light should start flashing purple and turn into a mesh mode when it turns blue.
9-Disconnect Ethernet and wait for blue light again.
10-Move node to desired location.

This model is actually MX4300 and not AX4200/MX4200 which is the original Velop.
For this model the WPS button on the bottom is unlabeled.
Not sure if it works at all.

Anyway the Ethernet/Internet ports are both limited to 1 gigabit per port so no difference there. If your internet speed is greater than 1 gb, you might want to pay more for the newer cable modems and wireless router that support 2.5gb or higher but those are really expensive. Eg Eero max7.
With WiFi 7 coming on board and you just want to hold over and do a little work following the instructions on page 1 of this thread, get two of this for a simple mesh.

Excellent deal if you can wait for stable builds from your preferred firmware vendor(OpenWRT, DD-Wrt, Gargoyle, etc), or are comfortable tinkering with snapshots or custom builds.
is it reccomended to purchase a different modem to use with these? Or will my current one work just fine? Thank you guys I'm advance for the help
