    Works well. Plaster walls are a challenge in general for Wi-Fi. This system seems be stronger than apple pod system which I had.

    Do not waste you time on this product. If you got one for Christmas DON'T open the box. I saw a lot of poor ratings and didn't put enough belief in them bought the product anyway. I saw a lot of comments about the exact problem I ran into. Started the set up installed the main node no major problems. Started the second node minor problem but easily resolved. Set up the third node. Seemed to install fine but the other nodes could not find it. Spent two and a half hour into this process with 1 1/2 with their foreign speaking tech support. We could not reset the third node despite multiple attempts. Their techs resolution, return it to the store for a full refund. . Bottom line returned the whole system to Best Buy. This rating is not fake. Don't waste your money. If you read the reviews, other have had the exact same issue. You won't be happy.

    DOA, and took my modem with it

    Was hoping this system would solve my WiFi issues. Geek squad rep and multiple employees sang its praises, so I snagged it on sale this week and brought it home to setup. That’s where the nightmare began. Following the instructions I powered up the first node and tried setup through the app. It recognized the node fairly quick, then asked me to power cycle the modem and attach to the node’s WiFi. I kept getting an error message that there was no connection to the router. Tried power cycling, tried another node (had 3 total, said didn’t matter which one was primary) and nothing. Called Linksys support, less than helpful. Also called my isp (Comcast/Xfinity) and spent 5 hours trying to get it to work. Best part is, something happened between the Velop node and my modem/gateway that caused it to not recognize my old router either. After spending time with Xfinity to troubleshoot they ended up giving me a new gateway and my original router works again.

    If you are picky with speeds, this is not for you

    Setup: You cannot setup/use the system without creating a cloud account. Even if I can input fake data, I don't like the idea of being forced to give out information so I can be allowed to use hardware I already paid for. Performance: The main node (router) will deliver speeds close to the modem's output (Ethernet-connected, and about 3 feet away on WiFi), but performance will degrade considerably on the second node even when placed as recommended by the app. Personally, I find unacceptable that if my main modem delivers 450+mbps, I have to settle with 150/180mbps output on the second node standing with my phone 5 feet away from it. Granted, I can still watch HD movies and such, but the point is that if I'm going to have hardware delivering a third of the speed coming from my ISP, I may as well just keep my old router and spend a fraction of the money on cheap repeaters. Conclusion: If you just want clear a dead spot, you are better off purchasing something like the Linksys R7000 which can broadcast the same SSID name as the main router.

      Hi.

      Creating a Linksys Cloud Account lets you access your router remotely to view your home network or configure your router settings from anywhere as long as there is an active internet connection. Making sure that the firmware of your Velop is up to date allows the device to optimize its full potential. Proper placements of the Velop devices also helps lessen the interference. Please email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com along with your information and the link to this post for our reference so our Escalation Engineers can further assist you.

      Hope to hear from you soon.

      Sincerely,


      Gregory
