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.

    I tried an HD antenna and, an extender but neither did the job. I finally broke down and bought the Mesh and it is unbelievable! It is like night and day. I could not have cut the cord without it. Also, they have 24/7 support which is very good and helpful.

    Great coverage, but very sensitive to power issues. If you lose power to any node, you need to basically start over and re-setup the whole system. Also, the app often shows nodes disconnected (which they are as you get no WiFi service) but all the nodes will be blue. Since they are blue you basically have to power cycle the node and then everything works again for a few days until a node will randomly fail again.

    Had a pretty decent Nighthawk before, only about 1yr old was only getting 180mb/1gb. 2,700sqft home. Hooked this this up and instantly shot up to 700! The rest is on my modem.

    Easy to set up, but they didn’t act like a true mesh. I noticed my devices stayed attached to a certain hub no matter where I was. The Internet was intermittent and we had dead spots around the house. I am really disappointed with this router. I purchased a similar competitor model and had no issues.

      Hi GeekyDude,

      We can stabilize the performance of the Velop system by making sure that the nodes are equipped with the latest firmware and the connection behind the modem is stable. We could have tapped our Escalation Engineers to check the unit and provide further diagnosis before returning it. Should you have any Linksys products in the future and need a helping hand, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us at LinksysCares@linksys.com. We're eager to help.

      Regards,

    Setup was straightforward, although not fast. Got it on sale for $100 (half price) and it is a BIG improvement over the old router (Surfboard 6580). Modem was good and kept it, but router was too slow and couldn’t handle 20 devices we have . . .
