Q: QuestionHow does this compare and any great differences between that this and deco W 7200?

Asked 3 years ago by Rodrock.

• A:Answer Hi! The primary differences between this model (Deco X60 / AX3000) and the Deco W7200 is that the latter is a Tri-Band Mesh system. Tri-band mesh technology allows for a separate, dedicated 5GHz backhaul band to communicate between the Deco units, instead of sharing the same band with your devices to communicate between nodes. The other key difference is the Deco X60 utilizes the HomeCare network protection and management suite, while the Deco W7200 utilizes the HomeShield suite. For more information about HomeCare and HomeShield, please see our website below: HomeCare: https://www.tp-link.com/us/homecare/ HomeShield: https://www.tp-link.com/us/homeshield/ Lastly - another difference may be how much Wi-Fi coverage the mesh systems offer based on how many Deco units are in the particular kits you are looking at. For example, a Deco W7200 2-Pack variant covers up to 5,500 square feet, while a Deco X60 3-Pack variant covers up to 7,000 square feet. We hope this helps!

Q: Questionif internet drops (xfinity) due to working in area or weather, will this router start right back up with no issues? i have an existing mesh system that whenever internet goes down, i basically have to reinstall the mesh system all over again. not good

Asked 3 years ago by lisa.

• A:Answer My last system went down about 7-10 times a week (Cox). But since I have had the Deco system I have completely forgotten about the system dropping out. I believe this is called self healing - which this system seams to be doing. I can't say enough good about it. Just install and forget it. Hope this helps you decide. TWW
