    I have a fairly large ranch style home with alot of outdoor living area. We had several deadspots out by the pool where streaming music was inconsistent with my prevoius Asus router. I decide to splurge on this system. Setup was pretty easy although I did have to call to get assistance (as other reviews mentioned), but got it setup within an hour. The wifi is great all through the house now. This was a good investment.

    Really good product. Easy to set up and delivers reliable internet signals without dropping. My previous router was more than 10 years old. It still works great in terms of coverage area but frequently drops connection. This new one hasn’t dropped once since we set it up. We have 12 equipments connected it and no problem at all.

    I need something to extend my existing wifi around and through all the concrete and rebar in my house and this seems to do the trick. I explained my predicament to a very helpful guy in the Best Buy store and this was what he recommended based on years of experience with people buying and returning other systems. Set up was really easy and it seems to have taken care of my problem.

    Linksys - Velop AC2200 Tri-Band Mesh System

    I installed this system to try to overcome weak or limited wi-fi signals in my 3000 sq. ft. home. The original router was installed in the basement on one far end of the house. It worked well, but signal was weak or limited in the farthest parts of the house. When it began to have "issues" with reliability, I decided to try to solve the range issues. I purchased a Linksys router and moved it upstairs as near as possible to the center of the house. This worked better, but connectivity in the basement would come and go. I then purchased a 3-pack of the Velop Mesh routers and placed two of them upstairs and one in the basement. I have to say that the system does work, but has limitations. Devices don't always connect to the nearest access point, and don't always connect at the optimum speed (2.4 versus 5.0). At this point, if I had to do it over, I would have purchased another router for the basement and networked it onto the main router. This would have required running Ethernet from the main to the child, but would have probably been a better solution for my needs.

    We have a house that is spread out and was difficult to reach WiFi from the center of the house into the far reaches. As we carried this out of the store, several of the employees stopped us to say that they, as individuals, used this product and we wouldn't be disappointed. That's always a good sign! And it is true that we have much better reach than we did before, and at blazing speeds.

    Not Bad but Was Hoping for More

    We have some security cameras on the front of house and on the detached garage. Our current WiFi router was in the basement. Was hoping these would extend the signal to get more coverage. While they did achieve better coverage and were very simple to set up, my devices do not seem to connect to the closest node. Since they connect to a node not as close, the signal strength is still not much better than it already was. One bedroom had no signal before buying these nodes and I was able to connect one node in the bedroom and still have a good connection to the other nodes. However it seems to not give the best signal to devices in that particular room. Perhaps something with that spot but I thought having the node would solve this. Overall my coverage is definitely better, I think for the price I was just expecting better coverage. :(

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    1700 sq ft home with 3 floors where the WiFi doesn’t reach every part with just one router. So this does its job. Could not beat that price for $199. The app is also very user friendly. I thought about getting WiFi 6 mesh WiFi but the price was just way to high. Plus almost all of our devices are not even WiFi 6 compatible.
