Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve had the 3 node Velop system for just over two weeks now, though I was only able to install it 10 days ago. When it works, this thing works- lightning fast, HD streaming, etc. etc. Independent speed tests showing an average 62+ mb/s downstream when I pay for 60. The “when it works” is the problem. In 10 days’ time, I’ve had to do three (3) hard factory resets and reinstalls, and have spoken to the specialty Velop CS team on three occasions, each call lasting approximately an hour, one of which was accelerated and had to await responses from a “Level 2” which took about a day. That hasn’t included the power cycles, aka “turn it off and on again” because it lost signal. For a premium product, especially at this cost, I’m less than enthused. This was purchased to replace an Apple Time Capsule that was bought in 2011 or 2012, that needed rebooted maybe three times in the 5+ years it has been in service. Honestly, I would have kept the Apple going but for the new home having several streaming devices on multiple floors. Read about mesh and how great it was for exactly this type of scenario, looked at Google, Orbi, etc., but the Velop earning the PC Mag editor’s choice was a huge selling point. Results have been blah at best. Maybe I got a bad unit? To their credit, CS has been very responsive and helpful, but that doesn’t get my time back, nor is it inspiring a lot of confidence in the product itself. Not quite ready to give up on it, but frustration is mounting. Hope it settles down. Will update.

The Linksys Velop WHW0302 provides great signal strength through out my 2 story house.

I used to have tons of issues with y network. I decided to upgrade my router from a arris gateway and the difference is incredible. Never have to think about my internet. It always works.

We are extremely pleased with our Linksys - Velop 3 pack purchase. We have been having connectivity problems for a couple years even though our home is relatively small. It's amazing all the items we have that require Wi-Fi connectivity in one way or another, cellphones, tablets, TV's, laptops, stereo, speakers, headsets, security systems, solar reporting systems, game consoles, etc.. Everything connects quickly, runs fast and smooth. It's terrific, the Nodes are portable and sleek looking, no more hiding in the highest point of the house. Amazing!!!! The customer service at Linksys is equally as awesome!!!

So far so good. I have always had trouble with consistent wifi with a good connection for the longest time. My router is set up upstairs on the other side of the house and I have spent approx. $200 multiple times for high end routers. Downstairs in the living room on the other side of the house where my family and I are at most of the time, we were never able to use our laptops, phones or stream Netflix on the TV due to the fact that whenever our wifi worked (rarely), the connection was really slow even though we have 100mbps. So far the linksys velop has been working smooth and consistent. So far we all love this product as we are finally able to live in 2017!

works fantastic throughout the house-only downside was more instructions needed in the packaging-just the basics-called into Linksys and got the answer right off but could have been easier.

System was extremely easy to setup using the app. Haven't encountered any data loss anywhere in my house (3,000 sq ft) and speeds are consistent amongst all the nodes. Excellent product.

I placed one unit in the basement connected to me cable modem. the second went on the main floor. The 3rd went on the top floor. Setup was simple and our coverage has never been better,

I would recommend this router to anyone who is looking for a router to do anything from gaming to streaming hd/4K picture quality products. Easy to setup and having running in minutes.

Running this system in an office of approx. 30 people with2-3 devices each and several networked printers and TV's. So far, so good. speed surpasses old wired network. Would recommend.

This mesh wifi system has helped my family of 5 stay connected to the internet without slowing the speed. I definitely recommend it for anyone with several devices connected.

I love this product. We couldn't get anything else to work consistently and fast in my 7,000 sq ft, multilevel home. It was so simple to set up also. I would recommend it to everyone.

I consider myself an expert in home electronics. First, despite the setup instructions, I had to set up each node individually just to get the latest firmware. Once the firmware was updated for each node, then I had to reset everything and start fresh. Once I got everything setup and running. The ping times were worse than my current setup (2 Apple Airport Extremes). I went from 3ms to 9ms! Switching to bridge mode brought it down to 4ms, but then you can't use the parental controls and cannot use the built-in speed test. The built in speed test could never show my 1Gbps Google Fiber connection. I could get about 700Mbps down and 800Mbps up. Other missing things: no built in switch, which means it is hard to wire up lots of devices without an external switch. No USB means you cannot connect a network drive. The coverage is good, and the wireless speed is strong, but not better than the Airport Extreme. But the benefits are just not worth it for me. I was really hoping for more, but I don't think these are worth the price. Lastly, I see that Belkin was just bought by Foxconn. I just don't see the support being there long-term. Even though Apple has stopped supporting the Airport Extreme, they still did release a security update. So I guess I will just keep buying them as long as they are available. I hope Apple decides to resurrect the Extreme line.

The Linksys Velop Mesh WiFi System is by far the best WiFi system I have ever purchased. Easy setup through the app for your smartphone. Highly recommended!

I thought it would help, but I installed two of the three and saw significant improvements in all my devices. Streaming doesn't hang, websites fly across all platforms. I'm amazed.

Great product, would buy again. Works as advertised.

My internet issues have been solved. I installed this product in my house and I went from an unreliable 20mbs to a very reliable 127mbs+ service instantly. Would highly recommend.

Easy installation with Linksys app. However the connection distance between two nodes isn't that great. Great fast internet connection makes it well worth it.

We are into this unit for about 10 days- I was able to connect to the system way over into my neighbors yard...it started out pretty and then the system was a little buggy. It was dropping our devices and speeds slowed down to a crawl. We contact Linksys- and after spending about an hour with their staff (Patrick in the Philippines) we are back up and achieve speeds as advertised by our carrier. I can not say enough great things about Patrick and his patients working thru the bugs. He kept his word and followed-up a day later. Top notch customer service at Linksys.

At the beginning I had a lot of issues with the nodes unpairing and not working, so I contacted customer service multiple times asking for assistance, they helped every time, and just to let you know the calls were surpassing 1h each. After about a year the nodes were working good. I recommend this product, I guess they updated the system.
