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.

    Very easy to setup. The app walks you through it. While I'm usually one that likes to tinker with settings, there's no need. The system just works and the app is a major improvement over previous generations. My only issue was ultimately related to my ISP but they were able to resolve and things have been perfect since!

    I installed this mesh system two weeks ago to replace a previous Linksys router that had gone bad. The installation went flawless using the app. It took about 30 minutes to install and configure 3 units. I previously had dead spots in my house with a router and extender. The new mesh system has eliminated the dead spots.

    Great wireless mesh network for experienced tech

    Though the device was difficult to setup, their support walked me through the setup process flawlessly. I did think it strange that we had to update the firmware before it would work. I now have internet every where in my house (bought the duo version).

    Excellent product, easy to install. Wasn't as fast as I thought it would be. But most likely the speed issue is at the source (our building's internet server). I am looking forward to trying it on a faster network. I am using 3 Velop units (Office, Living Room, Bedroom). They are working fine.

    DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Absolute garbage for what you pay for this system. When it works it works well. About every 2 months the nodes become unprogramed or become bad and won't work. It takes minimum 2 hours on the phone with Linksys to get back up and running. They outsource customer service to foreign counties and their English is not good makes the process more difficult. Take my advice do NOT buy!!!!

    Had some issues setting up, as there was a firmware update that needed to be done. Linksys support was great it took 2 hrs. But she was a big help. We have 5 bars all the time, we still have trouble with Netflix loading slowly. I also have 15 devices connected ranging from 5 phones to Alexia.

    My husband and I have a lot of electronics in our house and the velocity makes everything run smoothly! We are able to hook our pc's straight into different velop routers to gain amazing download speeds and are still able to get flawless fast wifi throughout the house! Super easy app setup, I highly recommend this!

    Works like a charm. Highly recommended. Just be aware that if you have apple HomeKit, Linksys Living doesn't play well with it. I have had HomeKit access turned off and haven't had a problem since

    the Velop WI-FI system Best Buy installed for me was not cheap but it increased my signal strength by a factor of 5 so it works. You really need a strength meter to determine where the second router needs to be placed and I think there is an App for smartphones for doing that.

    Easy setup with app from Linksys. The results are a great improvement in speed and reliability. Since I'm a bit of a research type person, I would like to know more of what is happening behind the mesh curtain, and if there are any additional setting that might improve my experiences, but all works well.

    I wanted something that gave me a more reliable connection than our current AT&T modem. The Linksys system was recommended to me by a store associate, and it is working extremely well! I did have to call support in order to rearrange some settings, but the system itself works flawlessly.

    Amazing range

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The nodes in this kit allow for the wifi to be spread all across the house without sacrificing performance like when we had a range extender installed. Best of all is I can manage all of it from my phone and don't need to know anything special to log into on my computer. Very satisfied with my purchase.

    Setup took a little longer than I was expecting, but overall a great product. Been up and running for three days, and once I ran the "Channel Finder" after setting everything up, speeds were great and the network here at home has never been faster! Another great Linksys product to added to my collection.

    Best WiFi we've ever had

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The setup was simple. All I had to do was download the App and it walked you through the setup. This is the first time we have ever had WiFi that was usable in certain parts of our house and the nodes prioritizing systems based on location and usage has made a significant difference in speeds.

    This is a great mesh network. I purchased the 3 pack seeing that I had a lack of coverage in a section of my home. Since then I have not lost connection or seen any lag in my home. I also enjoy the fact that you can set device priority and child monitoring solution.
