I bought 2 of these to replace my 2 Amplifi HD's and 1 Amplifi AP. Can't recommend them enough - they're great routers. One bonus thing that Linus didn't talk about is that you can mesh ANY of the Deco routers together. So say you have a huge house but you think that 2 XE75's is enough. Go for 2. If you need some additional coverage around the fringes of your network, just add ANY Deco router. In-law suite not getting great coverage? Pop in a $50 router instead of a $150 one - they'll never know the difference. One of your routers dies and you were planning an upgrade soon anyway? Get an XE90 or an XE75 Pro and replace it with no problems. It's a pretty fantastic system.

How are the speeds like? For the main Mesh device that's plugged in via Ethernet, I assume the WiFi speed is pretty similar to your router's. How about the WiFi speed for the other nodes that are spread out into the house? Are speeds cut down by at least half like WiFi Range Extenders?

For those watching...6Ghz requires WPA3 only (turns off WPA2 completely). Most things you own do not support it yet, and even if they do, you might have dropping issues like my S22 Ultra. Please be sure to stick with 5Ghz for now unless you know what you have supports WPA3 and supports it well. -Your friendly neighborhood IT guy 🤓

@@Chris-rg6nm By default when you set up the XE75 it'll have the 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands running (which can't be separately named on decos for some odd reason) and 6Ghz in dedicated backhaul mode. If you have any 6E devices you can go in and allow the deco to broadcast it to devices. It requests a separately named SSID (and even password if you so choose) TLDR; Yes it does have 3 bands running if you set them up like that. 6Ghz by default will only run backhaul between the units but is totally accessible of course. This actually causes some issues with the latest M2 iPad Pro because Apple only allows the device to connect to 6Ghz if it has a 2.4/5ghz to fall back on. In the early days before the latest iPadOS it really struggled to connect to these. That has now been fixed however.

I have been using Deco Mesh APs for quite some time now and recently updated to the X75. I do love that the hardware is actually decent and that you can mix and match different versions, so you don't have to spend 200 bucks to get the Wifi doorbell to connect. I just wish they would offer a bit more control at least through the web frontend. I ended up in a situation where I just couldn't use imported devices because Deco set itself to a channel the foreign device did not support - without any way to change it...
@CommodoreFan64
@CommodoreFan64 Рік тому
I agree, as I have a 3 base Deco X20 setup that they need more advance controls like I had with my old ASUS router, that had a fantastic Android app, and browser interface, so you can finetune all the little details about your network like selecting your own WiFi channels, family mode, times the network is on/off, etc.. but if you like simple, and it just works, which a lot of consumers do, then TP-Link is fantastic with decent hardware.

I have this exact same model in my house with one main router and one satellite. Theres a MAJOR HIDDEN PROBLEM with this model: the mesh wifi gets disabled if your WAN network (ISP) is dropped. So, whenever my internet goes out, in the time my ISP fixes it I am left with NO MESH WHATSOEVER. All my local smart home appliances are cut off from eachother since they need mesh to work in the entire house. So if im upstairs I cant control my downstairs devices with my phone, until my ISP restores my internet service so the mesh can come back online along with it. TP link can easily solve this, its just a firmware update away. But its not bothering to do it. IT IS THE MOST FRUSTRATING EXPERIENCE EVER. Please, LTT team if you see this please raise this issue with TP link, their support system is pretty hard to navigate. Its hard to get past the automated bot in chat and actually reach a human to solve my issue.

I won a Deco M5 set a couple of years ago and I gave them to a friend who struggled with internet due to the router having to be positioned at the front of the house upstairs (god bless BT in the UK). We put one on the router, one in the back bedroom and one in the garden shed and he can now use all of his 80/20 connection as well as stream 4K movies everywhere between the front of the house and the back of the garden. Mesh kits are so much better than the old traditional WiFi boosters and the setup was so unbelievably easy too.

XE75 Pro has one 2.5G port + two 1G ports for each Deco. You can acheive multigig throughput only if you connect the Main Decao 2.5G port to the WAN and the gigabit port to the Access Point Deco plus dedicate the 6GHz band to wireless backhaul which will allow the Decos to aggregate the wired + wireless backhauls to acheive close to 2G throughput out the Access Point Deco 2.5G port either directly to a PC or a 2.5G switch. Unfortunately, it means you won't be able to use 6GHz band for WiFi, but I only have for 4 end devices with 6GHz capability and 5GHz is more than adequate for their needs. Deco also can enable an IoT channel which is what I most need WiFi for. My faster throughput needs are strictly for ethernet

The Eero system requires no monthly charge, software and firmware are constantly upgraded, has great parental control features, and it just works.

I want to use this Deco XE75 to get internet in the garage, do i still need to use the ISP modem/router combo inbetween (or should i replace that for a better one aswell for stability/speed?) to get good speeds? I got a 1G internet speed connection.

I have a TP Link Deco system at my place and it works really well, But I'm not a huge fan of the fact that TP-Link removed features from the app if you have a newer device. If you use older decos like the M5 for example, basically everything in their monthly subscription comes bundled in for no extra charge and the app includes a speed test option. I updated my system to the x20's and those features are now paywalled and for the speed test function, completely missing.

Question: how to start with a mesh system ? I have a normal router (with wifi) and 4 output ports, that I currently use - If I replace my router with one of the mesh system then I have a limit of ethernet ports so do i first have a switch from my modem and then use one output to the mesh system or ???
@CommodoreFan64
@CommodoreFan64 4 місяці тому
It honestly does not matter if you plug the Switch into the modem, or the mesh base station, as most modems are still limited to 1Gbit connections, with very few having 2.5 Gbit, or 10 Gbit connections.

TP-link finally added the ability to control multiple Mesh networks for one account within the last 6 months. Which is a Godsend. Now I can control multiple networks for all the family. Sounds like I'm a salesman... but with all the fighting I've had to do over the years trying to keep a stable wifi this is literally the only solution that has worked. Though one major negative is it makes you lazy. You don't get the troubleshooting experience very much. Also if you do go mesh... remember to buy the appropriate model for your wifi needs IE device count, speed desire, distance needing coverage, spectrum of capabilities needed like 5 v 2.4. Basically do your research... though this is LTT so likely most do the research. At least I hope so.

Decos are great, I have set up hundreds of them. Best only turn on one device when setting the 'main deco'. Ive been very impressed with the X60 but the XE75 look great. You really do need to reboot the router before set up. I have found not doing it really effects speed. 300mbps was pretty poor. I get 980 and above from the X60 devices. Good vid though.

I actually have 5 of these mesh units. Ordered them before realising my new place has electric underfloor heating in every single room.... which essentially is a faraday cage. No ethernet wiring in the walls, so ended up doing some MOCA stuff, and drilling a few holes for new ethernet runs. I like them, but feel like they were a bit pointless once i literally had to get one for every floor (tall & thin end terrace).

I only need 4 TBH - one for each floor and one in the garage for the rear security camera, but i put one closer to this bathtub bathroom because it still wasn't getting good connectivity to the mesh. having that level of granularity in placement is very useful and I highly recommend the brand/products Wifi 6 however I'm not sure I will ever really use. Maybe it will let the apple tvs stream 4k h265 over plex, thus not requiring me to re-encode stuff into h264? that's such a bizarre edge case that is really resolved by having hard wire all over the house

I have the Wifi 6 version of these. You failed to mention you can plug your PC into one of these and have the deco's talk to each other.

I've had these a few weeks now, really like them. I got on board wanting to future proof with 6E. However, these use 6E for the backhaul by default, so if you want to actually use the 6E then you need to backhaul via ethernet, so defeats the purpose of it being a mesh then really..

just picked up the XE75 to replaced a older wifi5 M5/M9 mesh system. wow what a difference in speed....the limiting factor is the 1GIG Ethernet ports if you have over 1gig service which then you would want the XE75 pro version. also i don't really like the fact that the 6E band requires a separate SSID....when roaming around the house it will not automatically switch to the 6E network. hopefully some kind of firmware and software update can add the 6GHz band to the existing 2.4/5.0GHz network to use the same SSID.
