TP Link Deco XE70 Pro is a tri band Wi Fi 6E mesh system that stands out for easy setup, strong coverage, and stable performance, especially when used with Ethernet backhaul. The hardware is described as working well in mixed wired and wireless setups, and the identical nodes can be placed at the modem or ONT as needed. The main tradeoffs are app only management, no manual channel selection yet, and HomeShield antivirus and parental controls now costing $60 per year. It is a capable mesh option if you want fast coverage more than advanced router controls.
The mesh system can be set up easily and can deliver strong Wi‑Fi coverage across a home.
The units can use Ethernet as a backbone and can maintain stable connections in a multi-node setup.
The satellites are interchangeable and can connect to a modem or ONT using wired or tri-band wireless backhaul.
When the XE70 Pro units are used as the primary router, the mesh can keep higher throughput on the XE70 nodes.
HomeShield features can be paywalled, since HomeCare antivirus and parental controls may require a $60/year add-on.
The advertised 4.9Gbps performance is theoretical, and the hardware includes one 2.5Gbps port plus two 1Gbps ports.
Wired backhaul daisy-chaining can limit additional links to 1Gbps, which can reduce real-world speed for some wired setups.
Deco management is app-only and can feel frustrating during day-to-day use.

I just want to be sure these aren't just fancy range extenders.
Side note but serious question: has all the anti-TP Link/China fear stopped or is there still concerns about these getting bricked at some point? I mean, these days anything is possible from day to day, but in general?
Wireless or wired backhaul given the tri band.
