Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Velop AC2200 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 5 System's ease of use, coverage, and setup, frequently citing its simple installation and strong signal. Many also praise the system's range and performance, reporting consistently reliable connectivity. However, some users experienced connection issues and noted the relatively high price.

    Purchased this last week to replace the Netgear router and two extenders....so far it's working great to support our devices, and there are no lag times or blackout spots around/within our home.

    This product could be a great product IF linksys would let you go in and change the settings on your own. Other than that this product works as intended 400/40 solid. The app could use a little work.

    Velop Tri-band was recommended by Best Buy associate, the set up was App based and not only walked me through the process, but did all the work. The system has greatly improved wifi speeds throughout the house, and is replacing an AirPort Extreme.

      Hi, John,

      If your Velop Nodes are properly relocated and the firmware is up-to-date, we expect that it should provide you a stable connectivity. Please keep on observing how it behaves and should you encounter any setback, don't hesitate to email us at [email protected] so we can have you assisted by one of our Escalation Engineers. For easy reference, indicate your contact details and the link to this post.

    Speed performance is not its strength

    Honestly I'm quite confused with all those postings touting WiFi speeds similar to what's out the modem. I thoroughly tested the system and in no way this hardware is going to wirelessly deliver what it's promising. 1. Distance between nodes. Even when the db is between -45 and -55 for backhaul communication, I was able to get a consistent speed of around 50% to 60% of the total output. Because I did not believe what I saw, I contacted Linksys service. They could not figure out the problem, and that's because there is no problem, the system is just designed like that. 2. Mesh system as a glorified set of extenders: I made the mistake of reading lots of reviews rather than making my own technical research on network performance for mesh networks. Just because you have a software that automatically hands on a client from one node to another, that doesn't mean that you will get more download speeds than a regular extender. 3. Reliability: This mesh system is in no way more reliable than any affordable router. It all comes down to proper set up and maintenance. Back to point 2, if you feel you need to upgrade your router due to slow internet, chances are that you just need an extender or perhaps, reconfigure your router. 4. Speed, speed and speed: Streaming online in 4K requires about ~25Mbps. For most people, that's enough to carry on with their lives, which explains why so many are still happy with getting their internet speeds slashed in half by this system in lieu of reliability (read point 3 for reliability). Conclusion: I hate returning things to BestBuy as I love these guys, but unfortunately I cannot keep something that will not outperform a $99 extender. Pros: Nice looking device. Cons: Slashes internet speeds.

    I have a three unit Velop mesh in place but had some slower wifi speeds in certain areas. So I purchased this 2 pack and added members to my existing network. So easy to add and really helped with speed in my problem areas.

    These were easy to set up, had them running in about 10 minutes. They are a little bigger than most other options, but are not an eyesore. One complaint I have would be that they don't have a USB connection for my backup hard drive.

    I’m a little disappointed in this Wi-Fi device. They’re very expensive and when they’re working they’re OK but they dropped connection all the time.

      Hi, Justin,

      It could be that the Velop system is not fully optimized. If you’ve already tried updating the firmware and running the channel finder, please get in touch with us at [email protected] so our Escalation Engineers can check what caused the challenge. Don’t forget to include the LED status of the nodes, your contact information and a link to this review for easy reference.

    I returned this...so I’m not sure why you would want me to review it. I’m sure it’s a good product but I never opened the box or used it. I just want the free reward points for doing this review. Thanks.

    This Linksys mesh system has really been great addition for my home Wi-Fi experience. No lagging or dropped Wi-Fi and was relatively simple to install. Would definitely recommend if having Wi-Fi issues within the home.

    Adding the 3 pack Linksys-Velop to our home network has given us the best connectivity! We had difficulty with our previous system, but with the expandabilty of the Velop we are able to increase our productivity.

    Once setup it works very well. High throughput. Latency seems low. Setup was a little difficult as the app was not selecting the correct WiFi Network. Once I figured out the problem the setup was seamless. Updates are very easy.

    I thought installation was going to be a snap, but didn't turn out to be that way. I needed to call tech support, and they walked me through resetting the nodes. however, other than that everything seems to be working well.
