I don’t usually write a review but my goodness I need to this time!I was having real trouble with WiFi coverage in my home and having moved to a “mobile dead area” I rely heavily on it! The WiFi wouldn’t reach up to 2 bedrooms, nor would it reach to the garden. I really wanted to sit outside to work a little during the summer and just have not been able to as there is no signal.Took the plunge and went for this! Set up took about 10 minutes, super easy.RESULT: went right to the back of my garden and wifi was full bars and so fast! I am thrilled! Worth every penny! Bought the 3 pair, 2 downstairs and one upstairs!The true test is when my son goes into his computer to play with his friends - that has to wait until he is home!The units are quite BIG but I really do not care!!! The app is great and lets you see who is online. I also think you can put some guard rails on it so kids cannot get online at night! Could be wrong though! BUY IT! (Candle in photo for perspective!)

Replaced my BT router with these as I have fibre to the home, you take the smart hub 2 away and power off the little modem and connect one of your Deco units to it. Setup was surprisingly simple, set it to PPPoE and entered the default username and password ([email protected] and bt) and bosh it was connected. Hard wired two together via the 2.5gb ports to local switches one up and one downstairs and put one in the garage to cover the back garden and cameras that are at the edge of the property (4 bed house with detached garage). I had put the third one in other positions but the WiFi was so weak I had to experiment a bit. The garage one is connected via WiFi to the other hard wired ones. I kept my username and password the same and most of my devices connected straight away, though I had to forget and re learn on a number of devices to get the maximum speed of my connection. The app is very user friendly and works great, my connection (at time of writing) is strong throughout the house, my hard wired devices are running at 1gb (I have some TP link 2.5gb switches on order to replace my gigabit ones) and my internet connection is the same (FTTP). The WiFi in my sons room is around 400Mb which is perfectly adequate for any gaming or needs he will have. I only have one WiFi 6E compatible device my Amazon Fire Cube 4k (the new version) and this can see the 6GHz additional network (can't remember what speed it's running at). My 2nd old Fire Cube cannot see the 6GHz network, nor can our iphones 13 and 14. It seems that 6E isn't compatible with older WiFi 6 hardware, they cannot see it at all. I was expecting anything WiFi 6 to be able to use the higher speed band, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I have switched the 6GHz range to back haul and usable connection (there are only two options, one for back haul and one for combined). I have soooo many Philips hue lights inside and out and many BG smart sockets, the coverage for these looks good and the 2.4GHz WiFi that these use seems strong everywhere I go. This system is a bit pricey, but I feel that it is going to be great in the future as more and more devices support the newer band. I'm very glad that I chose the three piece kit as I wouldn't have got the coverage where I needed it with the two kit. If you want the coverage to extend to stuff outside your home deffo go for the three.

NOTE:- I do NOT work for TP Link, and have NOT received any promotional incentives. This is my honest personal review from a tech savvy retired telecom engineer, who has a lot of TP Link kit because for me it strikes a sweet spot between price, capability and ease of use. I have gear from other providers in a house where we game, stream and have a high reliability on our braodband life....Anyway on with the story. I had a 2 unit Deco M9 (Wifi 5) mesh for around 7 years with pretty good reliability - but it struggled reaching smart tech at the far end of my garden. Last year I upgraded my router to a TP Link BE9300 for the wifi7 and 2.5g wired connection (it was on a cheap special offer at a UK retailer who used to sell everything from a printed catalogue :-) - (Amazon normally price match) ..... It is solid kit and has run faultlessly for 6 months.As the M9's were 7 years old and (particularly in bad weather) my garden tech struggled I decided to take the plunge.. After deliberating about a wifi 7 mesh, decided they are too expensive (and my issue wasn't speed it was range /coverage), so the 3 unit XE75Pro hit the sweet spot. When it was on a new year special, and with myChristmas Amazon vouchers in hand, I dived in.Yes setup was via the Android phone app (isn't everything theses days ?). IT die hards will moan because they want to do everything in Windows and a big screen dashboard, but I have no issues with using my phone. It is handy to be in a cupboard with your phone torch on whilst placing the mesh units and checking on the app.I run dual networks (The one from my main router which is placed next to my incoming broadband line and ONT - Brsk 500mbps fibre). My existing Dec0 M9''s are in access point mode with a wired backhaul to the main router which does give more range and flexibility....This allows for easy checks for connection issues (Is it the mesh or something else that is playing up scenario) ... yes more complex, but caters for my telecom engineer way of working. My worry was that removing the M9's and inserting these XE75 Pro units would be troublesome .... It wasn't.The Deco app worked a treat. The 3 XE75 Pros dropped in just fine. I shuffled round the main unit position on the app to the new 3 point setup. The M9's were removed and BOOM - a transformation in coverage and smoothness.A week in and not one dropout - even when we have heavy rain, wind and typical northern UK winter weather.I have no regrets whatsoever going for the XE75 Pros over eye wateringly expensive tri band wifi7. The wifi 6e on the XE75 is a full tri-band implementation (unlike the cheaper dual wifi7 kit)... and the XE75 Pro does have a 2.5gb wired connection for backhaul.Highly recommended

TP-Link Deco X50-Outdoor/Indoor Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 (AX3000)We purchased the Deco X50 primarily for indoor use near a window, and it has exceeded expectations. Setup was refreshingly simple. Within minutes, we had our home network running smoothly, with clear and reliable guidance from TP-Link’s app and documentation.Performance-wise, this unit delivers. The AX3000 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 helps provide blazing-fast speeds (coupled with a strong network signal), and streaming in 4K has been seamless across multiple devices. We especially appreciate that it integrates VPN coverage at the network level, so we don’t always need to configure VPNs individually on each device (though it’s still an option when needed). This feature alone adds a layer of convenience and peace of mind.The build quality and look is excellent- solid, modern, and clearly designed to last. While ours is used indoors, it’s reassuring to know that the unit is IP65-rated for dust and water resistance, so it can handle outdoor conditions if ever needed. Multiple mounting options (pole, wall, or table or shelf top) make it adaptable to different setups, and the included Power-over-Ethernet support simplifies placement by reducing cable clutter. The dual gigabit Ethernet ports are another welcome addition for those who prefer wired stability.At around €118, it feels like a fair price given the performance, reliability, and features. It integrates seamlessly with other Deco units for a flexible mesh network, and TP-Link’s HomeShield provides added network protection and parental controls. If the price were slightly lower, I'd probably bump it up to being a 5-star product.In short, this is a high-quality, reliable, and well-thought-out mesh WiFi solution. We’re very happy with it and would absolutely purchase again if we needed to expand or replace our setup.

After a decade of waiting for fibre optic broadband, I finally received a 1Gbps connection to my home. However, the initial experience was underwhelming. Despite the upgrade, I was only achieving around 70Mbps in my third-floor room, located on the opposite side of the house from the modem. Given that my PC supports Wi-Fi 7, there were clearly no limitations on the device end. The issue appeared to be the standard modem provided by Sky, which performed poorly.I began researching mesh systems and initially considered the Deco XE50, but decided against it due to its Wi-Fi 6 limitation, the same as my existing Sky modem. I instead opted for the Deco XE75 Pro, which supports Wi-Fi 6E. Although it cost approximately £120 more at the time, I deemed it a worthwhile investment given the performance gap and future-proofingThe improvement was immediate and significant. In the same room that couldn't even reach 100Mbps, I now consistently receive speeds exceeding 600Mbps, occasionally peaking at 800Mbps (via Ethernet connection to the wireless hub). The range of the XE75 Pro is exceptional, especially considering the physical distance from the main pod. I purchased the three-pack version, which ensures seamless handover between pods for mobile devices and always connects to the fastest and most stable node.The accompanying Deco app is intuitive and offers a solid range of functions, including device prioritisation, firmware updates, security protocol options, guest network creation, and even VPN support (VPN is an add-on for a monthly subscription).Overall, I’m thoroughly impressed with the Deco XE75 Pro. It delivers on performance, range, stability, and features. If you’re paying for high-speed internet, it only makes sense to invest in hardware that allows you to benefit from it. In my view, this device is worth every penny.

Upgraded from TPLink Deco X20 (which were also brilliant)Setup was easy, although the app doesn't contain a 'flow' for upgrading from a previous Deco system, theres simple instructions on the website. Took about 10-15 mins to replace all 3.App is intuitive, and walks you through set up with no issues.Defaults to use 6ghz for Backhaul only, so you'll need to change this if you want 6E on your devices, and then it creates another network.Coverage is amazing, 4 bed house with solid walls, and have no issues at all, and even covers the garden.If you've got 2.5g wired ethernet, the multi gig port is a welcome addition, and for the price uplift Vs non-pro option, it's giving you a little future proofing .Download / upload speeds are brilliant, and latency is decent too. I use these in AP mode, so some of the features aren't available (but I don't need them anyway! )Web interface is awful, really locked down, so any admin has to be done on the app, which is fine .... But means you are limited to using your phone / tablet.Mesh over 6ghz Backhaul is stable, and moving between APs is seemless. Moving between 6ghz and 5 isn't - but that's more to do with the device connected being 'sticky' 6e doesn't have the same coverage so I find my phone connects to 5ghz as I get home, and then doesn't want to switch over when I get through the door.There's the option for guest network, and an IoT network, but there's no VLANs so if that's what you need, maybe look at TP Link Omada which is the prosumer range.All in all, for the price, a great bit of kit, and zero issues!

After 18 months of daily use, I can confidently say this has been one of the most reliable and worthwhile networking upgrades I’ve made.I bought the TP-Link Deco X50 (Outdoor/Indoor) specifically to solve a tricky problem: getting stable Wi-Fi to a gate intercom located roughly 20 metres from the house. Running cables wasn’t practical, and previous Wi-Fi solutions were inconsistent at best. This unit completely solved it.Installation was straightforward. I mounted the outdoor unit in a un-sheltered position and connected it via Ethernet to a TP-Link PoE switch, which made powering and networking it incredibly clean—just a single cable doing everything. The PoE setup has been rock solid with zero dropouts.Performance-wise, it’s been excellent. The signal strength at the gate is now consistently strong, and the intercom connects instantly every time. Video and audio streams are stable with no lag or buffering, which was a major issue before. Even in bad weather—heavy rain, frost, and summer heat—the unit hasn’t skipped a beat.What’s impressed me most is the long-term reliability. Over the full 18 months:* No random disconnects* No need for reboots* Firmware updates have been smooth and uneventful* Seamless integration with the rest of my Deco mesh networkBuild quality feels premium and properly designed for outdoor use. It still looks and performs like new despite being exposed to the elements.If you’re trying to extend Wi-Fi to an outbuilding, gate, or any awkward outdoor location, especially with PoE available, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this. It’s been a “fit and forget” solution for me.5 stars without question.

This is an overdue review of this mesh system…..I’ve been eyeing this product for over 8 months and spent a lot of time reviewing YouTube videos of this product and decided out of the blue to purchase it when on sale and at the same time I upgrade my ISP to Gigabit Wifi.I’m well versed with TP Link deco’s/App as I started with M4 to X20, X60 and now XE75Pro. Two years ago of moving into a 3 bed house my WiFi requirements have changed (more wireless devices being added to my network) and if anyone knows your average router from your ISP aren’t the best when it comes to WiFi coverage. I purchased the pack of 3 to cover a 3 bed house. When opening the box you’re greeted with all 3 Deco’s nice placed in the box and the power cables and Ethernet cables underneath.My main Deco sits on top of my TV Cabinet (not the best place due to interference but will discuss later on how to get past that). I have the second one placed in the kitchen and the third in the home office (as I work from home and wanted excellent coverage in this room). The minute you complete first setup of the main Deco all your wireless devices attach to the one Deco and couldn’t believe how many wireless there are! When you add the other Deco’s my wireless devices automatically attached itself to the nearest Deco. Once that was completed I started running Speed Test in various parts of my house and couldn’t believe. On the 2.4/5GHZ bands (wireless) I was getting between 700mb to 900mb (iPhone 14Pro Max) on the ground floor and First Floor. On the 6GHZ, I’m getting 1.3GB download on the ground and first floor (which is insane!) All my devices on for the TV are hardwired/Ethernet and purchased a 16 Port POE a while and this connects my TV, Xbox Series X, Apple TV, FireStick, Phillips Hue Bridge and a Hive Bridge (I’ve learnt that Ethernet is best way to get the full download speed from your ISP as you don’t want your WiFi congested but if it is, with the Deco app you can rescan your WiFi and change channels).2 Months past (Christmas, New Years, In-Laws staying over and joining the WiFi and over 50 wireless on the network) and the WiFi coverage is stronger than my past Deco’s as previously experiencing issues with my Ring Door Bell (I was in PC World returning a product and actually answered the Ring Door Bell and the Post Man heard me clear as day, this I hadn’t been able to do properly for about 8 months but this Deco you have no issues with any Ring devices (but beware Ring only use the 2.4and 5GHZ bands) at all with coverage but I started to notice WiFi interference because of where the Main Deco sits as I found myself rescanning channels weekly. Back again to researching (YouTube) why I’m getting WiFi interference and came to the conclusion it’s the Ethernet Cables, they’re unshielded!Deco provided Cat 6 cables and these are fine as its perfect with everyday usage of internet but to the placement of my Main Deco there’s interference from the Smart TV. To combat this I purchased Cat 8 Ethernet cables (2 of them, one to run from my ISP Router to the Main Deco and the other from the Main Deco to my 16 Port POE, which was £19 for the pair from Urgreen Via Amazon. Some people will say this overkill as I’m not running multiple server’s etc but I needed it for the shielded component). I replaced these 2 cables from TP Link’s to Urgreen’s Cat 8 shielded cables and the Main Deco had a little bit of an error moment as it was stabilising itself. Running these Cat 8 Ethernet Cables I’m able to take advantage of the 2.5GB Port at the back of my ISP Router and the Main Deco. My internet is a lot more stable, responsive and snappier. My download speed on the Ground Floor is 900+ MB (wireless), Hardwired still 1.3GB. On the First Floor 700 to 800MB (wireless), 900+MB hardwired and haven’t had to rescan and change channels (I’m thinking of upgrading the Ethernet cables around my TV area to either Cat. 7 or Cat8).In conclusion…this product future-proofs your WiFi (The next Deco from this is WiFi 7 and that 10GB and 2.5GB ports, Gigabit isn’t everywhere in UK) as some wireless devices coming out now can use that 6GHZ band (could you imagine getting Gigabit speeds on your mobile device. There is one downside to this product, the Deco’s use the 6GHZ band to communicate to each other and you can have them far part or it’ll start flashing red due to loss of signal (I will pick up the pack of 2 when on sale adding 2 Deco’s on each floor provided complete coverage over my house. This product is worth it if your paying for 500MB to 1GB WiFi as you want to take full advantage to what your paying for.Update: Depending on the size of your place you can have no more than 6 Deco’s in total (including Main Deco) due to the Main Deco cannot communicate properly between other decos and will lose connection/control via the Deco App.

Great extender, essential to who has a multi-storey house, extends the signal very well.

Łączony przewodowo I bezprzewodowo. Daje radę!

Disappointed to see they deprecated WireGuard for VPN config, apprarently for all their products. OpenVPN is absolute trash unfortunately (the only one available). Their help centre articles still show all the guides on how to set it up… this was fairly recent from what I can tell. Ridiculous

Déçu!J'ai reçu mon colis ce jour et bingo, les prises secteurs sont en version américaine et pas possible à utiliser depuis la Belgique...Retour du colis chez Amazon et je l'ai commandé par un autre fournisseur.

Facile à configurer
