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.

Excellent service
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased these because ours were all dated so we took the salesman's experience with this product and used it to purchase. It has worked awesome no more outages or movies messing up.
I would recommend this to a friendFast and Slow
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The WiFi speed is erratic, goes from really fast to really slow. When it’s good it’s good. Another issue is that my devices do not sync up to the nearest node which I would think would improve performance. I recently moved my modem and my Velop router node to a different location, hoping to get a more consistent result. This change, seems to have helped a little.

Posted .Hi, Mark25,
There might be some wireless interference that is causing the Wi-Fi speed to be erratic. You can try using the channel finder on the Linksys app to help optimize your Velop system. Meanwhile, wireless clients such as mobile phones, have Wi-Fi drivers that dictate roaming characteristics. The Velop system supports roaming but, does not manage how or when the devices roam. To isolate, you can try turning the Wi-Fi off on your device and turning it back on, this should force the device to connect to a stronger node.
Let us know the result at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this review and, we'll have our Escalation Engineers provide further assistance.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was told this system would be better than my 8 year old net gear WiFi system. It’s not really. The info that comes with system states coverage up to 3000 square foot home. Our home is 2500 square feet and signal is weak in some areas. I’ve had to reboot system twice in the first month to get internet back.

Posted .Hi, Edward,
Each node of the Velop Mesh System WHW0103 provides Wi-Fi coverage of up to 1,500 sq. ft. You can try to use the channel finder on the Linksys app to optimize the nodes and make sure that the firmware is up to date. For further assistance, you can reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with the link to this review for our reference.

Great way to expand WIFI
||Posted .

Very easy to set up and use via app

I would recommend this to a friendLooking to sell these for something better
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Linksys has been solid in the past. So when looing for a newer system when my e3000 died I researched and found mesh wi-fi. Being a loyal customer I decided to buy these even though it was a little more than I wanted to spend. My review? It's great after you restart the system twice a day. With the current situation and working from home, restarting the system twice a day just doesn't work. I've contacted support twice and they had me reset the system, which is a pain when you have smart home devices connected to the network and need to configure again. After changing settings on settings it still doesn't perform like you would expect it. I can plug directly into the ISP modem with no issues. I connect to Velop and I drop connections or get SLOW internet speeds. I didn't spend the money I spent on this system to have to restart it while doing my job, Anyone interested in buying a used, less than spectacular mesh wi-fi product?

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was not originally clear to me what the difference in an AC1200, AC1300 etc. actually was! The number just refers to square footage Strength and not to system compatibility!

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these to extend my wi if signal to ends of the house for security systems. Seems to work, though a bit hard to get up and running as the security system took a long time to “find” them.
