Thx for showing this is detail, big help for my future install.
For simple deployments, my go to is TP Link everything -all just solid, reliable quality. Any SOHO or larger environment, UniFi is my go to.
I setup a lot of routers for customers and I use tp-link often. They make good equipment. Shane, a great app I use is called WIFI heatmap. A ton of good info for your wifi connection. Not sure if it's available on iPhone though.
I initially had 3 nodes (1 as router and 2 satelites) setup as wireless. Speed was good but I wasn't getting my 1 Gig internet speed. Finally, I spent the weekend crawling in the attic to run CAT 6 to all 3 nodes connected to an unmanaged gigswitch and I bought the wall mounts to elevate them to about 7 feet. Wow, big difference in coverage and speed. I now get 700-900 Mbps from all areas in my wirelessly. My desktop is hardwaired to the switch which gives my 800+ speeds consistently. I've installed these for a few people using the ethernet backhauling and they love them. One house had 6 google mesh system and they get better coverage and speed using the 3 node DEco XE75
Thanks for info
I may upgrade. I have a trio of Deco I haven't used yet. The AC1200 models are over 5 years old now, I believe. Wondering if their still good. I'm like just upgrade to the newer models Maybe The dual pack of the AXP5400.
Thank you for your helpful review of this product. One clarification: based on your video, it looks like I could give the mesh network the same network that I had for my original router (mine is a netgear)? In other words, I wouldn't have to have two separate network names (a mesh one and a router one)?
The mesh includes the router. In this video, it’s a system that comes in one package of 3 identical pieces. You could name the new network the same as the old one so you don’t have to reconnect all devices, though.
The 1st thing I do to my service provider's given router is to keep it back in the box.
Att fiber requires you use there modem but you add extender/mesh router as a passthrough
This is the comment i was looking for thank you.. i have to put it in passthrough mode.
Nice. I’m going to hit up TP-Link and see if they are willing to help me out too. 😂
Good luck lol
Their equipment looks incredible. Have a number of reservations. The Chinese encryption standard WAPI I believe is on by default. I have a hard time adding a Chinese device on the network. I have plenty of Chinese made products and happy with them. I just have an issue with network gear. There are people suggesting they have taken IP and used as their own.
My personal setup is from them as well, tons of chinese smart outlets, no issues there.
At a minimum I would at least make sure WAPI is turned off.
@@scaryifliteralThat's because you forgot to put tinfoil on your head.
Promo Code on Amazon is not working
I have the eero pro 6e with 2 6+ nodes. Would these be an upgrade? I do play Xbox series x, 3 tvs that stream, camera system and 3 phones. We have Xfinity 1.2gb plan with s33 cable modem.
The Pro 6E is essentially the same setup with 6E wifi and ethernet ports. Not really an upgrade. If you want the best speeds, you should hardwire the units so they can take advantage of ethernet backhauling. If possible, I would run an CAT6 cable to the x-box for the best speed and latency performance. Even with the improved 6E and mesh, hardwire is still king for max speeds
@@joephu I ended up swapping the the tplink ex75 pro. The eeros where giving me issues
I have a question I'm looking into getting the deco x75 and doing a wired backhaul. My question is will I lose a band doing the wired backhaul? And if so is it worth it?
If I heard it right, buying the DECO 6e (not the straight 6, that's still dual band) will give you the 6GHz for backhaul. So, you'll get the 2 and 5 GHz bands as normal, plus the 6GHz band. Been looking at these myself for backhaul, at this point I need it. Just wish you could name the 5 GHz band - which it doesn't seem to allow.
Ethernet backhauling is the bomb. IN standard wireless mesh mode, the wifi 6 is used to link the decos. When you setup ethernet backhauling, wifi 6 can now be dedicated for using the wifi 6 channel, thus giving you better speeds. I initially used wireless mesh but added a switch and cables and my performance and speed are so much better
Ideally, wired back haul will always be better while preserving all bands.
So, you can use a Deco system in place of the router? I have a Deco system with one of the units plugged into a router. I thought it had to be that way -- I didn't realize a Deco unit could act as a router.
All mesh systems can have one node act as a router. Most ISPs give you a modem/router combo unit so once you have the Deco system installed, you can turn off the modem/router's wifi and put it in pass-through mode so youer mesh can handle all traffic and the ISPs wifi won't interfere either
@@joephu But you still have to keep the modem/router provided by your ISP, correct?
@@nathanjamesbaker yes, the tplink is not a modem but can act as a router. Most ISP modems are combo modem routers so that's why you put it in pass-through mode
Code not working 😢
AX5400 indicates the wireless standard of the device, there are AX5400 devices made by other manufacturers.
can it be configured to act as a AP only (router shut off). can it be powered by poe and if yes poe++ poe+ or poe
what is the MU-MIMO spec 4x4 or ???
Does is suppoert WPA3?
Yes it can be configured in Access Point mode.
It's not a PoE system but TP-Link does offer several.
It's MU-MIMO 2x2.
Yup it supports WPA3.
@@mediocritycentralwhat about passing through vlan data that the switch creates? I have heard some ap's will remove packet data about vlans added by other devices.
@@be-kind00 that depends on the switch, the Decos are picky as to what switches they go along well with...I believe there's a reddit thread about that
Can this be setup with the xfinity gateway modem?
Yes it does put your modem in bridge mode
Can the 1G be used for the Wan and 2.5 for lan?
no - you need the 95 for that
Do you have a link don't know the 95@@benardmarx
So do I have to call my internet provider and set up this new router?
Not usually.
@@scaryifliteral Also my router is a combo router/modem would that matter?
What is the difference between 5400 and 5400 pro? Go Vols!
The pro has as 2.5gbps port on it
14mps isn’t that bad.. I’ve clocked a 0.6 at one time.. 😂My 250 mbs isp was regularly @ 10-15mbs. Of course I have better now
Yeah it is 😂
I use the older Google nest system no issues!;
Their phones barely worked on the wifi their ISP provided. Nest wouldn't have fared any better.
I literally had the same misuse your mom was having to have a camera in my backyard so that's why I went with the mesh system that way that camera would stop falling off my network.
These have become complete garbage after recent firmware updates. Constantly losing connection!
Not for me, still solid reliability and performance. I would reach out to their tech support
