TP-Link Deco M5 review
Mesh routers aren't exactly new, but until now they've tended to command the kind of price points that have kept them out of the reach of the majority. TP-Link hopes to change that with the Deco M5, which offers up a mesh system much cheaper than the competition.- Great value for money
- Incredibly easy to configure
- Good coverage
- Not as fast as some
- Lacks fine control
TP-Link Deco M5, AC1300 Whole-Home Mesh Wi-Fi System - 1 Pack, TP-Link HomeCare include Antivirus, Parental Controls and QoS, Powered by Trend Micro
Nice and simple to setup and then just starts working. Bigger range than my previous standard wifi router though still has a bit of trouble getting through my coloursteel cladding.
Must have for Fios
If you have FIOS you must have this product. Easy set-up and looks nice if you need to have it out in the open. We now have four in our home and WiFi has never been better. You might even want to lower your speed. Update to follow on that. GS Queens
This is a great product. It creates a strong wifi signal in our house. As you need one unit to sit with existing wifi router, you really only have two units to place in dead zones around your home. Highly reccommended.
tp-link AC1300
i had a few initial issues setting up but that was more of a me issue than a product issue, once set up its been great! my original router didnt give much coverage, i have a 1971 2 bedroom solid brick unit and the coverage would drop even in the spare room and especially if you walked outside or into the attached garage. plus with my old router i would have to manually switch from 5 to 2.4ghz network to use apps to control things like smart bulbs or led strips, now its all on 1 network and i can just click on my app and it works seamlessly. im really glad i purchased it. just remember if you have stuff connected wirelessly like your printer or tv etc youll have to redo the connection as youre setting up a whole new network- this is what can take some time.
TP-Link Deco M5 AC1300 Whole Home Mesh WiFi System (3 Pack) DECO M5(3-PACK) review
Yet another whole-home wireless mesh system gets tested, this time the Deco M5 AC1300 kit from TP-Link. Is it a buy? Let's find out.
In short, the TP-Link Deco M5 is a worthy entry to the low end of the mesh networking market, and it includes network-based antivirus and excellent parental controls. We prefer Google Wifi's app and the way it can proactively change channels to improve wireless performance and avoid interference,...
TP-LINK Deco M5 WiFi System Review (Retested After 2 Years)
The TP-Link Deco M5 was the first WiFi system released by the Shenzhen-based company in an attempt to join the then-already established group of systems, which included the the Linksys Velop , the Google WiFi and the Netgear Orbi .
The TP-Link Deco M5 Whole Home Wi-Fi System
Overall, we were very impressed with the TP-Link Deco M5. While it didn't match our high-end router in terms of flat-out speed, we think it offers a fantastic overall networking solution for most households.- Very easy to use
- robust network controls that parents will appreciate
- excellent range
- Flat-out speed not up to par with high-end routers
- few tweaks available to power users
TP-Link Deco M5 review
TP-Link is the latest networking company to launch a mesh network system. It's called Deco because the aim is to ‘paint your home with Wi-Fi'.
