A:AnswerHi, Danjes84. The Linksys Velop Tri-Band Mesh system should work with your existing router but, we suggest that your make the Velop node as your primary router.
A:AnswerHi. Yes, you can use the Velop system with the EA9500. But the primary node will need to be wired to the main router for its internet connection.
A:AnswerHi, WiFiless. Please reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact details and the link to this post so our Escalation Engineers can check this out further.
A:AnswerHi, Mitzi. The Velop Mesh system should be connected to modem so it can acquire internet connection, requiring no additional routers needed. Also, the Velop is an Intelligent Mesh WiFi System that is made up of modular nodes, which work seamlessly together to fit the needs of any home and deliver flawless Wi-Fi wherever you want it.
A:AnswerHi, Jimbo. The Linksys Velop AC2200 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 5 System, WHW0303B is a gigabit router and offers up to 6,000 sq. ft. of coverage, so it's suitable for a large home, and its Tri-Band technology delivers faster speeds for multiple devices by balancing loads effectively.
A:AnswerHi. As long as your internet source has an Ethernet port, then the Velop Tri-band should work. You can configure it either as a main router or an access-point.
A:AnswerI have two children and have up to 17 devices connected to my wi-fi at any one time. The Velop system works great. However, your problem could also be a bandwidth issue. My son is a PC gamer and uses a lot of bandwidth. He used to complain about the internet when he was trying to game and his sister was streaming video and I was on my computer. I had to increase the bandwidth package from my internet provider to solve that problem.
A:AnswerHello, Curious. The Linksys WHW0303B is a VPN passthrough that supports Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), and Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP).
A:AnswerHi, Trix. As long as the wall patch offered by your ISP runs Ethernet connection, then it should work fine with our routers including the Velop units.
A:AnswerYour cell service depends on your carrier’s signal strength which is a function of your location and distance from the cell tower. No, this linksys device is not designed to boost cell service.
A:AnswerHi there. Resetting the existing tri-band nodes would be essential so you can reconfigure them with the MR8300 router (should act as the parent node). Please reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com along with your contact details and link to this post so we can lend you a hand further.
A:AnswerHello, Jim. You can add as many Velop to your home as you’d like as every home is unique. For the trouble that you have, make sure to consider the obstruction upon placing the nodes as it is one of the factors for the said issue. You may try to update its firmware too, and send us an email at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact info so we can have you assisted further by our Second Level Support Team. Include the link of this post upon sending the email so we can use it as our reference.
