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. A limited number of Ethernet ports was also a recurring point of feedback.

    We could not get our computer in the store front to connect to the internet router that was in our office. After buying and setting up this 2 pack wi-fi system, we were able to boost our internet range so the computer in the storefront can connect to the internet now.

    Returned for Orbi

    Good idea, just doesn’t work. I live in a 3-story townhouse (first level is garage, so we live in 2 floors). The Velop kept losing the satellite, and when it was connected, we had very week signal. Devices also “locked on” to either the router or satellite, which meant we lost the benefit of the mesh system. When we would reboot, it would work well - devices connected at a strong/high signal and throughout to the nearest Velop. But move around, and a day later, we had to reboot. We returned this and are now trying the Orbi RBK50. So far, it’s more consistent, but a little slower on the speed.

      Hi, Scriber,

      It is possible that the nodes are too far apart. We could have had our Second Level Technicians assist you further with the device. We respect your decision in returning the product.

      If you have any questions regarding a Linksys device, feel free to email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com.

      Have a good day!

    I did extensive research on a moderately priced WiFi Mesh network system. After reading many reviews of a number of systems I found this one to be the right choice for my home. I live in a 2 story condo which is made of concrete. This system works great and covers the whole place.

    easy to set up and the app on your phone lets you know if one of the nodes is not maintaining good connection with the modem we were even able to extend coverage into our garage where we have a space set up to have visitors during the pandemic

    setup was a little problematic. I think the issue wound up being the app. when trying to setup the 3rd node, i had difficulty. After being on a phone call with support for about an hour, everything is now working fine.

    Great for bigger homes / thick walls

    This mesh WiFi system is great for larger homes - or homes with thick, old, or brick walls - or walls with metal studs, etc. The mesh network is easily extended - and brought exactly where you want it - by placing the individual units in the rooms you use most when you’re online.

    Had GS Install it and we seem to have much more flawless Internet along with the modem they recommended. One tower did go out on us once for some unknown reason but we reset the modem and it came back online. Over all I recommend this to not have weak spots in the home

    Easy to set up. Expanded my wifi signal as need with consistant full strength. Have lost or had weakened signal about 3 times where needed(front door Ring Doorbell). Coded indicator light on top was easy to see. Slight change of position solved problem.

    def pleased with this purchase. recently switched to google fiber and their “free” hub wasn’t doing the trick (in fairness, per the box it was meant for a smaller house). added these bad boys and our wi-fi is now awesome! no buffering, great pictures. could not be more pleased!

    I was having serious WiFi problems with my old router, so I looked into upgrading my equipment. This looked like it would do the trick, and it has been everything I could have hoped for! I would definitely recommend this network system to anyone!

    Purchased this item to get a better signal to my ring cameras. Cameras signal is strong compared to when I didn’t have the mesh system. Had an issue with the network being reset back to factory settings. Called customer service and they fixed the issue. Great product.

    Two adults working from home, plus kids doing their thing... and this system is able to support 3900 square foot 2 story easily. With easy setup we were switched quickly. Worth the investment.

    Before installing this WiFi system I was having a major problem getting WiFi in the far corners of the house. My Roku TV on the far end of the house did not even pick up the WiFi signal from my cable box. Now with this system in place I have maximum signal strength throughout the house.

    I have been frustrated over the years with different WIFI routers that have I have tried. This one has not disappointed me yet. I like the mesh network. After I figured out the placement of each of the devices in my house, I was able to eliminate all the dead zones in my house!

    Velop delivers the fastest Wi-Fi speed I have ever experienced and does so consistently! I have 4 laptop connected at a given time with video conf call and this works fantastic. There is not a single connection dropout since I installed.

    Velop is a amazing system. It does what it says and just gives you what Wi-Fi should have been in the first place. I have 3 floors and the access point in on the third floor. I have gig service and the bottom floor gets amazing speeds never seen before. Prior 20M down now 400M down.

    We have the 3 towers spread throughout our home in 2 separate buildings. We are able to get WiFi connection with no problem. The only thing that is a bit of a drawback is that the tower can be tipsy if not propped just right with the cords.

    We live in a large stone house, so getting wifi throughout the entire house was difficult. The mesh wifi network makes that much easier to get wifi throughout the entire house. Allows you to prioritize devices.

    Terry was more than helpful in taking care of my problem my speaker bar and suggested I upgrade my geek squad coverage for home service. I always hope to get to talk with her when I am in the store, she is always more than helpful, she is a credit to the Best Buy staff.

    I had to upgrade my internet system! Thanks to everything on this side of heaven needing WIFI I needed something that could handle my Internet load and not kick devices off the network. One on the best purchases I’ve made during this pandemic!
