I recently set up the TP Link FESTA Wi-Fi system in my home. It includes FESTA router, FESTA switches, and FESTA AP. Comparing to the Ubiquiti system I had for the last several years, this FESTA system is much easier to set up and understand, at least to me - have very basic knowledge about networking. Controlling and seeing the status of the whole network (equipment and users) from the APP on the cell phone is quite convenient and clear. I highly recommend the FESTA system. The WiFi 6 is very fast. But since it is relatively quite new to the market, there is few videos in YouTube about this FESTA system.

I set up 3 of these in my house. They have great speed and the Omada App is really nice. My only complaint is that their ramnge isn't great causing a couple dead spots around the house.

Ok, so I am a geek. I am running OpnSense on a Xeon E3-1226 v3 with 16GB of RAM connected to my network with a Chelsio N320e. If you understand what all that means you know it's WAY overkill for home use and I LOVE it.So with that out of the way so far this AP has been great. Pulled it out of the box and hooked it to a TP-Link POE switch and connected to power and the network, took a second to look up the IP address and after connecting it was up and running without issue. I have dealt with consumer grade products that took nearly 30 minutes to get setup and working correctly because they want to force the use of an app and even then don't want to go into AP mode. This was a pleasure to configure as it took me longer to hook up some cables and find the IP address than it took to actually put in the settings. If you have done some networking for a while and don't need your hand held this will be great for you.Doing speed tests to my 10G fiber connected server from my phone while connected to this AP is getting me around 800 Mbps to my Galaxy S21. From my 10G connected desktop I get 5000 Mbps to the same server FYI. This is with 21 connected clients (mostly ESPhome configured ESP8266's) and a connection rate of 866Mbps which is great IMHO.I have a TP-Link OC200 Hardware controller on it's way as well and need to expand to a set of 3 EAP650's that will all get their power from a TP-Link TL-SG1005P switch and will update with more information when that is completed but so far in standalone mode things are working great. My other current AP is a Netgear R8000 I have had for a while and the handover from the R8000 to the EAP650 is seamless as well so I foresee no issues when 3 EAP650's are up and running.I also as of yet have not done anything with multiple SSID's or vLan's but that will be in the works soon as well but has been put off until I get all of the hardware needed to make it work correctly. I will be sure to update this review and more information I am however VERY happy with things after the setup being a breeze.

I added this access point (EAP650) to my home network to provide better Wi-Fi coverage throughout my one story home. The physical installation wasn’t too complicated. I already had a POE+ ethernet switch in my wiring closet, so I simply needed to run an ethernet cable through my attic from the wiring closet to the point on the ceiling at which I intended to mount the access point. I used a circular ceiling box for the mounting. I did find that none of the mounting holes in the supplied mounting plate actually lined up with the holes in the ceiling box, but I was able to make it work. It was simply slightly off-center. Still, the ceiling box is not visible, as another customer had complained. (See photo.)The network installation took a little bit of doing, especially for an average homeowner who is not a network expert. I wish I could say that it was as simple as plugging it in and everything was good to go, but it does take just a little bit more work than that. I assigned the access point the same SSID and password as my router (using the Omada app), and I assigned it a fixed IP address at the router. One frustration I encountered is that I had copied and pasted over my network password, which resulted in the addition of a space at the end of the password. So none of my devices would connect initially. Once I figured that out and removed the space, everything was fine. I had to restart my router and the access point a couple of times throughout the process, but once everything was set the network was running smoothly. Now, a majority of smart devices in my house are connected through the access point, as reported by the Omada app.
