Customer Ratings & Reviews

The TP-Link Deco router looks sleek and was very simple to configure. For most individuals with basic Internet needs, it would satisfy most needs. My primary issues are two parts: 1. While the router boasts of 2.4/5 GHz support, both signals are broadcast as a single SSID. This means that if you connect a device that supports both bands, the device will determine which to use. 2.4 will give the stronger signal, but suffer a limit on nadeidth speeds. In my case, many connections defaulted to the 2.4, causing my speed to cap out at around 80 Mbps rather than the 450 Mbps I get with the 5 GHz signal. The only way to split out the 2.4 and 5 GHz frequencies is to setup the guest network with the alternate frequency and set both SSIDs to.be discreetly 2.4 or 5 GHz. This brings me to the second problem. 2. The number is SSID is limited to the primary and guess network. The needs in my WiFi environment is to.have a discrete internal WiFi for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, I'm addition to a guest WiFi. Since I must use the "guest WiFi" to host one of the discrete frequencies as an internal SSID, I am unable to setup and actual guest WiFi. If not for these two primary issues, I would have likely kept the product and would have been very pleased. The 3 stars is for its simplicity and easy setup. It loses two stars for the amount on control provided. An additional note is that within the router setup, it does allow for extra Internet security at the router, such as malware site blocking, it comes at an additional subscription cost while some other routers provide those as base features of the router. I would probably recommend if advanced configuration is not needed and the additional security features are not a concern.

So far, so good. Definitely increased the range and speed throughout the entire house.

I like how easy the set up was, and how good the system looks around the home!

Very easy to install. I had some spots with 1 bar of Wi-Fi and now I have full bars in every room, garage and back yard! Speeds are amazing too, multiple TVs streams, iPads, laptops and phones along with all the smart home stuff and zero lag! Love this system, already recommended to friends.

I have set up several TP Deco mesh systems for family and friends. They are easy to get installed and work great. This one was on sell and I purchased it to replace my older Deco which was damaged by lightning. It works great and so far it has exceeded my expectations.

These Deco units are great. They have solid range, excellent hand off, and are easy to setup and get started. Some extra futures in the app would be nice but for 90% of users who are looking to plug them in and never touch the settings again, it's a excellent choice.

The mest system works great, great connectivity, setup is easy and it has a net protection software that you can subscribe to.

I came from a netgear WiFi system and compared to that system this DECO system is way better with faster speeds. My 1st netgear was not giving my max speeds, the 2nd system stopped working after 2 weeks and now this current system has been working fantastic for over month now. It covers my entire 1600 square ft house. LOVE IT! I will update in a few months but so for great system

Works well. Good Coverage for two story house. Setup was straight forward. Easy to move placements for optimum performance

This system works great and was easy to set up with the app. I have almost a half acre with my house, shop, and detached garage and have great service every where.

It was time to upgrade after 3.5 years from Deco M5. This is a great system to upgrade to. I needed something with 6G capability and also upgraded to Frontier Fios from Spectrum. I jumped from 200mbps to 500mbps and have full coverage in my home & yard. It was very easy to set up and also has a good level of protection.

We were having incredibly spotty internet with Xfinity in our upstairs office at 400MB because of the distance. I was skeptical especially when I saw the downloads speed but what it may shorten in download speed if strengths in pure steady connectivity where needed. My wife works from home and now she has perfect connection. Great product

I am absolutely floored how easy this set is to install. We have a 5200sq. ft. home and have excellent coverage in every room.

In a large house, I always experienced dead zones for wifi. These are rated for 7000 sqft house and brought to life the dead zones. No problems since. With power surges, they reconnect flawlessly. Initial install could not be easier. I've recommended to family and friends.

This has to be the easiest setup ever. With the app, it’s such a quick step by step, and before you know it you have fast and reliable internet. Of course given you have a good source. We have spectrum 1gb and a 2 story house and no weak spots and dead zones at all. Highly recommend this product.

Great setup to make sure your house has full coverage. Wasn't too bad to setup, and the app that you need to set it up isn't too bad either. I had been running a pretty outdated Linksys extender, so new setup was needed, and I'm really glad I went this route.

I set this up for my parents, they have a ~5200 Sq/ft home and its amazing! They have 600x40 Mbps cable setup and this thing keeps the speed all through their house. The ease of setup was awesome and they can even manage it from their phones. Great product!

I wanted to get this because I needed ethernet ports and to stop having spotty Wi-Fi. I got it on sale, easy setup didn't have any issues throughout it. Pretty good range reaches all the way to my garage. Would recommend if you just need something simple medium price range that doesn't break the bank. It fixed my issues and probably would buy a more expensive one from this brand knowing how simple it is was.

App is great and easy to use. Installation is also very easy. However, response time on the app when a reconfiguration occurs is slow, and the mesh setting does not provide for fast internet speeds and does not penetrate brick and mortar / plaster walls well. If you need speed, just keep it on access point mode with backhaul, but this setting defeats the purpose of use as a wi-fi system. Go with the ASUS ZenWiFi XT9 AXe7800. They're more difficult to configure but work so well that I can imagine that my face will eventually melt and the turkey in the oven will cook faster next to one of these units.

It works great. I had bought a eero which didn't cover the house as well and didn't work with a device connected with an ethernet cable. I returned the eero and was very happy with tp-link. Everything works. I have one criticism. You can only use a phone to configure the tp-link network. A phone is a toy, not a tool. They should have a browser interface to do the configuration.
