Has now had my Deco M5 for over 3 months and it works perfectly in our single-storey house of 180 sqm. Covering the entire house without any problems.

TP-Link Deco M5 Review
TP-Link's new Deco M5 mesh networking kit targets simplicity, but it's half-baked.
Pros:
- Unique circular design
- Support for Ethernet-based Deco-to-Deco communication
Cons:
- Unstable Bluetooth mobile setup process
- No web-based backend
- Wireless AC devices have a 433Mbps limit
- Shallow "advanced" features

Disappointed!
Unfortunately, I had constant issues with mine. The units had a lot of trouble during setup trying to get the mesh connected. After, setup my internet would drop ever so often for no reason whatsoever. I ran a constant ping and was losing about 15-20 percent of my packets.

TP-Link AC1300 Whole-Home Wi-Fi System, DECO M5 3P
Very pleased with the product. We have a very long house and this was a great solution. Set up was easily accomplished via Bluetooth and my cell phone. We were up and running in about 20 minutes( have to set up 3 pods).
Pros:
- multiple "pods" to place in high usage areas
- super easy set up
Cons:
- cost is high but worth it

The product is working fine. However I noticed it is made in China. I expect the Good Guys and other Australian businesses to take tangible steps to source products from other countries and my support for businesses will depend on this.

TP-Link Deco M5 AC1300 Whole Home Mesh WiFi System (3 Pack) DECO M5(3-PACK) review
In general, we’d always recommend a whole-home mesh networking system to any home that’s struggling to get a signal. Although the market is competitive, the TP-Link Deco M5 has a few advantages over competing models.

Here at Bob's house, we're awash in technology. Between computers and gadgets, we probably have 15-20 different Wi-Fi enabled devices. But I'm not a gearhead. I don't like spending hours tinkering with network settings to keep everything up and running.
Pros:
- Easy to install
- Robust management and user control features
- Excellent coverage
- Consistent
- reliable performance
- Excellent
- hands-off antivirus and intrusion security
- Remote control features allow you to manage your network from anywhere
Cons:
- Need to replace your existing network
- Continuous data sharing with TP-Link could present some risks
- Long-term pricing for the security package is unclear

Now TP-Link has been producing routers and other networking products for many years, so it arguably has more experience in...
