Apologies in advance for my lack of precise terminology. Networking isn't my strong suit, but I'm learning more each day! 🙂
As someone with the license to work in this field: You are hereby forgiven.
Greg next how to: Fachinformatiker für Systemintegration
Just throw a bunch of acronyms together in one rapid succession and BAM! Netwrkng!
This sounds _way_ more profesh than "media panel," eh? 😅
its fine. panel thingymajig will suffice
I just got the TP link S4 works great but was looking at X20 would it be worth it the extra money for ye X20 I can return till end of January . I have a smart home setup 3 levels townhouse 500/30 isp speed . Over 50 devices on wifi
Greg is a way better neighbour than State Farm.
this made me crack up
He seems like a nice chill dude. Good job on the wi-fi!
I use the tp link decos and they are really good, mesh networking is great!
Does not seem to be that good, i have 1x Asus router in the middle of the house and i get better up/down speed around the house than that. It did cost 300€
@@ionitaconstantin1052 For coverage, mesh networking is the best. For speeds, routers are better.
@@ionitaconstantin1052 they'd get better performance if the APs were hard wired to one another.
I've set up a few Deco systems for friends in the last few years, all of them wired, and performance has been excellent.
In fact a pair of Deco M5 units replaced an Asus router in one case, with excellent results.
The wireless backhaul "mesh" features should only really be used where it's impossible to get ethernet to your access points.
@@ionitaconstantin1052 wifi mesh doesn’t go for raw speed. If u wanted raw speed u would get something like that asus router. Dont send a lambo to do an off roaders job type deal. Everything has it use case etc
@@RathOX i know its not for raw speed but what is the point to wire them? I mean isn't the point to have less cables?
If u start running cables to wire them u are better off just getting another router for the second half of the house and u still get better signal and speed.
Just my 2cents, since i been in this position and did get 2 similar devices .. at the end of the day i ended up whit a good router in the middle.
Love this different video content, brings a lot of variety to the channel and keeps things fresh, great video Greg hoping for more 😉
This is so great man. A lot of channels are making videos asking what to do to get more views. And you keep innovating on your own. Great stuff.
No hype...no drama...no bullshit, just a straight forward "this is the product and this is how to set it up and make it work" kinda video, this is why Greg is one of the better tech folks on the UA-cam.
5:05 I prefer 50 shades of Greg
Love to see new content on the channel. Love the videos man.
I appreciate it!
@@GregSalazar :)
Greg love it man! Great job for your neighbor!!!
This is very informative and a amazing for the holidays Christmas gift!!!
Thanks for watching!
Very nice gesture during this time of the year
Wish Greg was my neighbour 🤣
Personally, if there is already ethernet ran to multiple points of the house in the ceiling, I think it would have made a lot more sense to use access points that are mounted up there. You would get better performance since each AP would have wired connection and since the AP is blasting the signal downwards from up there. Seems like a wasted opportunity since all the hard part (running the cables through walls) had been done already.
This basically. I live in singapore where wifi mesh is being advertised everywhere by the ISP, but because everybody lives in concrete flats, wifi mesh networks get significantly degraded by the time it reaches the master bedroom. However using ethernet backed mesh networks, every single room can basically hit 1gb/s down on speedtest with no sweat.
Exactly my thought. I was also suprised that Greg would not utilise these cables to get Backhaul performance.
That's in America. They all live in wooden houses. No matter how fancy the neighborhood looks
and on a side note: I'd bet all my money these two dudes are getting freaky in the garage when no one's looking
It's a sponsored video so they probably needed to emphasize the mesh part of the access points. These are no access points for tech savvy people so it makes sense to connect 'em like that.
Or just run them wired, which is possible. And it will still make a mesh network, but with an ethernet (wired) backhaul.
Definitely like your neighbor; good sport about the entire thing
Amazing timing, heh. Just yesterday I installed my new Decos M4 after some more networking-savvy friends recommended it.
After spending a lot of money on routers, repeaters and access points, I FINALLY have decent wifi performance across the house! Mesh Deco FTW 🙂
Dope upgrade
I just bought a tp link deco M4 system. Very easy to set up.
surprise me too Sir. Greg. Need that WifiMesh Setup
nice of you , I have them and I love them.
I wired each of my TP mesh stations. Makes a huge difference. Sensor clean time.
TP-link Decos are so underrated. When I moved into my 3-floor-house a few years ago I bought some Deco P7s. Totally happy with my wifi since then.
Got this set last weekend! I have a 1gbit fiber connection since this month. Stil need to run some cat7 cable through my house. I want my pc and all three decos connected via cat 7 cable.
Really easy to install and use!
I use 2X Deco M4, in a 100m² house. I have good signal on the roof and the yard , plus enough meters away from home, I can access the internet as well.
These X20 are much more expensive but for different use case scenarios.
The Mesh WiFi system, really killed Powerlines, I believe :)
Great video, as always, Greg!
The fast his coverage in the street is better than mine right next to my main router and here soon we’re getting fiber optic and we orders that exact system can’t wait
His middle of the road speeds are my every day, inside the house, next to the router speeds 😒🙄😂😂
I don't have the X20 - I think they're too expensive but I do have the M4. I have five of them. The great thing is that you can just buy more to put in or near places where you notice a signal drop / weak signal. Really cool product and it finally fixed my wifi problem at home. And to think before that I just tried using regular plug in the wall extenders.
Dre is so funny 😂
I like my TP-Link AC4000 router. Has been solid for over 2 years now.
Man it killed me when he replied dead serious about the dre wifi name
These things are great. I have them. One thing to note, I find that turning either Fast Roaming or Beamforming on prevents some older devices like my old Android box and PS Vita from connecting.
Love the inevitable "I'd wire it up" comments in a wireless product demo.
Good guy Greg
Nice video. Good to see the learning curve. Nice. I wonder was it only one utp cabel that connected to the first ap from the isp. I would like to know how for example his tv was connected? i so the 2 coax cables so i'm wondering now :)
Ok, I'm 1 minute in, I like where this content is going...
The 2nd hand market in my place sells them for as low as $20 per node
Once I'm immersed in its eco system. I've manage to snag 12 units of them and ran a ethernet backhaul since my house is like a bunker in terms of concrete thickness 😂
So there it is lowest Ping and peak speed anywhere i go 😀
Anyone else see what the Subtitles said 0:04 - 0:12
Greg: We don't line in mansions over here.
Me: Looks at my house, and the neighbourhood...um yes you do :)
His speed test in the road using wifi is better than my entire internet speed 15 feet from my router using ethernet lol
I like that most of the Deco units support ethernet backhaul to help out with the speeds and stability. Been looking at the X20 myself. Amazon had them on sale a few weeks ago for $200, but I held off thinking Black Friday would be a better deal. Unfortunately they are at $230 for a 3 pack now.
it's on sale again on Amazon for $180 as of yesterday.
Honestly i feel like pack of 3 are a bit overkill, just like grey said most people's houses aren't as big as 5000 sq ft, my house is like 400 sq ft.
The panel inside is normally called a home network or media enclosure depending on what’s inside.
Cool neighbour 🤘 better watch out for his 50 shades 😅
I actually love this video
Wow! Thanks for watching!
The most impressive feature of this video is that you guys are enjoying warm weather and up here in Canada at Lake Ontario it's -7c tonight.
I've been using orbi mesh wifi for over 5 years now "I think" and it's been amazing. Whenever i see a tech tuber buy a new old school router I scratch my head and I don't understand why they still buy those. I'm sure there is a good reason for it. I use one of the three in my computer room and directly plug it into my pc and get the full speed that I pay for on my pc. I can't imagine using anything else since i've made the switch to mesh wifi years ago.
Dope video
Awesome!!!
The middle of the road is my current wifi speed lmao
Best mesh ever
Curious what was the speed before? Would've been good to see a comparison.
Should have used that wired backhaul! Big BIG BIG difference
I think Greg secretly put a mesh in his house to get some of that speed!
That’s a nice-looking telecom box. The one in my apartment looks like crap they didn’t even bother to patch up the wall
I got a WiFi 6 mesh system a few months ago, better speeds, stability, and range than the old boring single router with some netgear range extender.
Dang, I'm over here thinking "Where can I find a neighbor like Greg?"
"We don't live in mansions over here..." (Has a Porche and Ferrrari as daily drivers.)
Hey Greg, could you do a video on push vs pull vs push/pull radiators?
your comment's are really good, my only question is, how do you plan on utilising the stream of "data"....
I would create a wired backhoaul between all of them, especially when your friend had pre-wired setup already.
Yeah, prewired isn't set up - only one port in the ceiling of the main room. It's still plenty fine for his needs.
The thumbnail made me do a retake, I thought It was an old awesomehardware episode.
His speeds from the ROAD are identical to mine whilst sitting next to the router… catch up rural Australia lmao
Why is only Andre's convo hard subbed 😄
Greg, a modem/router is a Mouter! 😉😆
hey santa greg.... man i gotta move to your neighborhood
Thanks for sharing your experience with the deco x20. I just purchased this set. Any thoughts or issues with the Wi-Fi since installation or are you still happy with the set? Thanks again.
No web interface (VERY MINIMAL NOW) was a deal breaker for me.
Interesting. I didn't know that you could just replace the ISPs gateway router. TP Link I have often used. But in an apartment block it is a game of ever increasing strengths to combat the neighbours, 8 other neighbours whose WiFi can be as strong as your own. So I prefer to stick to the trusty Cat 6 cable.
You can. But you need to activate the new router on your account. Usually you can do yourself, or you can call them up to send the activation signal.
I bet, if you placed the first one outside that metal wiring box the signals and speeds would improve
Think someones messing with your subtitles Greg XD
do these mesh devices support bridge mode? you could just plug it into one of those unused ethernet jacks and leave the cabinet as it was or put a pfsense router in there, the netgate 2100 is what I have its superb
I live in Florida too
Thank you for always inspiring me, i will always look up to you! Keep up the amazing videos! ❤.
Thank you so much!
@@GregSalazar ❤❤❤❤
Him and his wife do a lot of work in the bedroom? Can you DM me that link? Asking for a friend 😂😂
Should get a switch to keep all the hardwired connections connected to the router incase you need ‘em.
these mesh systems are good but I have had horrible experiences when connected different other wifi enabled items like apple home pods and google nest cams.
DOod! Dre got a Dell!
Make sure he calls Frontier and return that router to save $10/month on his FiOS bill.
I returned their POS router day one 😂
Pretty sure that was Ookla speed test, which isn't testing WiFi, it's testing speed at the router.
Best to use Google own speed test for WiFi speeds.
The speeds in his road is better than next to my router
I’m actually shocked by the lower fiber speeds in your area. Even in my tiny town of 20k ppl in nowhere Texas, I’m sitting at gig up and down.. can’t complain anymore I guess lol
We have gigabit... we just chose not to pay the extra $30/mo for it. Only $50 for 500/500 and no caps here.
@@GregSalazar I figured you guys did and for sure if you don’t need/want it then why not save the dough :) 500/500 here is $75 and gig is $89 so it just made sense to go gig. Can’t be upset either way :)
You're lucky to have either a cable system or fiber optic system. Live in a big city in Texas but don't want a big cable bill. It will be a few years before we get fiber optic so are stuck with very slow speeds for now.
Yes it Does.
As someone who works in tech support the combo unit triggers me.
Hey Greg! Since youre kind of an expert with pcs do you have any idea why my pc boots to bios but lets me exit it normally to windows. It hasnt always done that but i dont remember when it started. Its not really too urgent to get fixed but it still kinda bothers me. i have reset the cmos multiple times and played around the settings in bios but nothing helped. I have a msi z170a motherboard.
Haha! My Ethernet cable speeds are 35download, and 3upload. $175/mo with Spectrum .
So you don't have to use your original gateway modem/router to bridge into the mesh system?
Greg didn't you already fix or upgrade this neighbor PC ? or does he appears in many YT channels and I'm confused ?😂
Heh watching this on internet coming from my Deco X20 lel
Hi it's me our neighbour
lucky neighbour
The speed he got in the middle of the road is the highest I get in my house
His wifi speed outside his house is better than mine.
So you don't need the isp provided modem anymore and can return it not having to pay a "rental fee" anymore? Or do you still need the isp provided modem and this just replaces the router?
THATS A DODGE CHALLANGER AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
This has absolutely nothing to do with this video!!! Just wanted to give a big shout out to Greg!! Thnx for the Cd Key discount code!! Just got 2 windows pro keys that work for less than 30 bucks!!!! Great deal!!! Appreciate it!!
Yoo we call those white boxes @ 2:14 On-Q boxes
I gonna need that.. :-000
Is the speed of the 2 secondary unitd dependent on their proximity to the primary one that is directly hooked up to the motem thing? He seems to be getting slower internet speeds on the 2 not directly connected. 388 ish to about 256 ish.
Yeah, it's because the other two can't pull the full 500/500 out of thin air. They can only pull what they receive from the primary router.
Awesome. ..even I could hook this up...he did turn off the public wifi off....
???
.
Speeds and coverage are good but had to return mine, not being able to change ssid channel in a tighter living area made the wifi unusable :/
I have one X20 router, so if I get two more, it meshes them together and won't create 3 unique networks? Time to get more X20s!
it's a shame his middle of the road is faster then my out in the middle of no where 12mbps down and .6mbps up. it sucks being stuck between cox fiber 2 drives ways one way and xfinity fiber 2 drive ways the other way
