    The product (2) Linksys velop AC2200 Tri-bnd Mesh wi-fi system.. is performing really well, in my larger type two story home. I need a strong wi-fi signal throughout to do the type of streaming we all desired. Your outside sales consultant Benjamin Devoll was helpful in everyway in order for us to make this selection. He was very professional and represented Best Buyer very, very well. James/MaryAnn F. Fresno, California.

    This WiFi system works great for our four thousand square foot home. We no longer have any problems with weak signal anywhere in the house.

    Was having trouble with signal strength in parts of the house. Replaced our furnished Comcast modem/router combination with a Netgear unit and added the Linksys mesh system router. Now have a strong signal throughout the house and outdoors which is nice if you have wireless security cameras. Nice feature is the ability to connect a computer to one of the units via a ethernet cable. Much faster upload and download speeds. Very simple to set up.

    Constantly having issues with these units going offline and needing manual reboot. I have worked with their customer support twice for many hours and they are helpful but they should be with all the issues. I have 5 units and I’m not impressed. I would not recommend them but can’t recommend an alternative. The speed is fair - around 270 Mbps when they work. Tech support finally had to hardcode which unit talks to which on the back channel communication between the units to get them to stop dropping out. Unfortunately if I need to move them I have to reset to factory default and start over again. It’s been a pain because I’ve had to reconnect all my devices to the network each time tech support reset to factory default. That’s happened twice. A real pain since I have lots of devices. I really think they have issues. Very disappointing since I spent a fortune but now I’m stuck with them until I can afford to replace them with a competitor. Look elsewhere.

    A Deadspot and Fast Wi-Fi Solver

    First off, this new product put out by Linksys is looking to create a whole-home Wi-Fi network for your home. This system, the $499 version, comes with three nodes, whereas you can purchase them individually for $199. And the packaging is marvelous. With that out of the way, this system is the best whole-home Wi-Fi network product out there right now, hands down. Let's start with the setup: remember those old instruction booklets that were terrible to read and to understand? Well, those are now gone. Linksys decided to have installation via there Linksys Smart Wi-Fi app, and this process is/was a breeze. Simply download the app via Google or iOS and start the setup. Steps were simple, very simple, and I had the network up and running in less than 15 minutes. The other plus about the app system is that you can manage the whole network seamlessly, rather than having to login to the router via a computer. A great addition. Moving on, the coverage you get with three nodes is quoted at covering 6000 sq. ft, and I imagine this is true. I only tested with a 3300 sq. ft. house, but no deadspots found inside the house, and only minimal speed drops the further away from a node you would go. I noticed no speed stuttering with this system, unlike my EA9500 router, where I've truly had frequent issues with it, even though it's a powerful router. I get better speeds than my IP quotes me at, and that's enough for me. The system is fluid, and can act as a stand alone router system or connect to an already equipped router to revamp the signal to greater lengths. Some of my only gripes about the Velop system so far is that there are no USB ports on any of the nodes, and there are only two Ethernet ports on each node. This means for anyone wanting a better configured wired-network or wireless network storage device you must purchase an ethernet switch. Those aren't dealbreakers, of course, but just notes. Also, since this is a brand new product, there aren't certain features available that, more than likely, will be in the future (such as IPv6, better Parental Controls, in-depth system tools, etc.), and there may be bugs that need working out. All in all, a great product that looks to pioneer the new whole-home Wi-Fi system of tomorrow. It also looks great. What more could you ask?
