    Easy setup, but poor performance

    Out of the box the wireless router was easy to setup. Was using the Apple AirPort Extreme router before, which worked great, but I read that mesh wireless systems were now way better. I bought the Velop system because Apple recommended it. Unfortunately after I installed them the nodes would randomly drop. I kept the Apple Airport connected for comparative troubleshooting. Every time the Velop system crashed but the Apple was still working. I called Linksys customer support and they kept stating my internet connection was bad and I need to call their customer service. I tried to explain to them that the Apple Airport system was working properly, and that it was the Velop system. No luck with customer support. I returned the Velop system to Best Buy and bought something else.

    The set of 3 was insufficient to cover the house, thus we ended buying 2 sets for a total of 6.

    Did Not Work For Us

    Very easy to setup, was super pumped on this. After setting it up, connection would drop frequently. Our streaming shows would last about 1minute before they cut out and paused. Searched and found this is somewhat common and there's no response from Linksys that was helpful. Returned and got a competitive product instead which has been working out great.

      Hi, realdealholyfield,

      The frequent connection drop shouldn't be happening if your Velop System is properly configured. We regret to hear that you already returned the product. We could have tapped one of our Escalation Engineers to work closely with you in getting this issue fixed. Should you have other Linksys device that needs assistance, we can be tapped anytime at LinksysCares@linksys.com.


      Best regards,

      Jay

    Previously had a AC router and extender and had several dead spots in the house. The Linksys VELOP system provides superb coverage in all areas of the house.

    Better than a typical extender.

    The Velop allows you to eliminate most hot spots around your house. Place them carefully to get the most out of the system.
