Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Velop AC1300 Dual-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 5 System's ease of use, expanded Wi-Fi coverage, and strong signal. Many appreciate the improved range and performance compared to single routers, finding setup straightforward. A common concern, however, is the relatively high cost.

    Didn't work in my house

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I read the instructions and set up the system as outlined in the app. What I didn't know is I had to add every connected item in my house to the Linksys network. I decided to try it out, and only added 2 items. To my surprise the signal strength was very low on these 2 items. I did a channel scan and the signal strength got worse. I called the Linkys 800 number waited 35 minutes for them to pick up and I got ahold of a very nice woman who I could not understand. She asked me many questions and I knew I was in trouble when I had to repeat the serial number over 4 times. I said B. She said C. I said no, B. She said C again. I then said Ball and she got it right. I said P. She said T. I said P. She said T. I finally had to say Paul for her to get it right. The service rep said I needed to hook a computer to my router. That was not easy as my router was not in the easiest place to reach. I finally hooked up my computer and she read off the web page to go to, and I could not understand what she was saying. After 10 minutes I got onto the web page. My router was receiving the correct upload and download speeds. I then was told to go to the Velop sight. I had to go to my node andget a number off the bottom of it and had to read the service rep the serial number. After about 40 minutes, I was told I had to reset the system. Now I had to make the remote node the main node.. Press the red button for 1 minute, wait for the lights to change and then do it over again because it did not work. Repeat process and it finally worked. I then had to setup my remote node, and had to reset it twice to work. Reset the nodes takes a great deal of time. After everything was done, my signal strength was no better than when I started. Today as I walked by the Node, it had a red light on. I could not think of calling the 800 number and going thru what I did the night before. Instead, I packed up the item and ran it to Federal Express to get my money back. I am sure the system works well in most homes, but in my home I could not get it to work. In addition, I am a very patient person, but working with a customer service rep who was difficult to understand is not acceptable. Luckily I had 2 Tylenol to take after the call.

    The set up was easy. The coverage seems great. I have no "dead zones" now, where there were once a couple.

    The setup was very simple, but I measured the download speeds before and after installation and it has only once been as fast on one occasion and usually almost half the speed as before. I am considering returning.
