Deco XE75 AXE5400 Tri-Band WiFi 6E System - Wi-Fi up to 7200 Sq.Ft, Engadget Rated Best for Most People, Replaces WiFi Router and Extender, AI-Driven New 6GHz Band, 3-Pack

I have been looking for a great quality router for about a year now. I have watched YouTube videos and visited different forums to find the perfect one for our 1350 ft.² single family home. I have read differnt reviews and this is one did not come up a lot. It was not till I was chatting with a friend that I heard about this item. After he explained how the 6e worked I was excited to get it in and try out. The router I had was from 2019 and in my eyes I thought it was working fine but once I connected the TP-Link to my modem and started doing some testing around my property I didn’t realize what I was missing and how my old router was not even giving me the speed I was being providing. Set up was so easy. Once you download the app all you have to do is follow the app instructions. It literally is that easy. And the second until was plug and play. I now am able to utilize the speed my service is providing me which is Spectrum throughout my house and beyond. Signal strength is amazing. For what you get price was very reasonable. The app and user interface is not complicated at all. Another nice feature is there is only one light and it is not that bright which is nice because you don’t want a super bright light while all other lights are off. I would highly recommend this router system and as of now will give it a 5 start. I will give an update down the road on how it is holding up. Device seems to be durable and solid.

We have an AT&T gateway and have been using three older TP-Link routers as access points connected by ethernet using our home's structured wiring and a TP-Link repeater to boost the signal to our two Ring doorbells. I'm embarrassed to say but we only have 50mb/sec internet because nothing faster is available where we live, even though communities right next to us have had fiber for years. That said, the speed we have actually works just fine for everything we do, which is quite a lot. We do streaming for all our TV watching, work from home, have many Ring cameras and doorbells, and lots of other devices. The problem was that our wi-fi seemed to get bogged down and wasn't able to even deliver the 50mb/sec speed we have. This was especially problematic for our two Ring Doorbell Pros, where the video quality really suffered. Everything was blocky and blurry, I'm assuming because the cameras weren't getting enough speed and/or strong enough connection. The construction of our house likely doesn't help since the front is brick and stone. With this new Deco system, everything works and works well. We have a 3-story house, and I placed one unit on each floor. The first and third floor units are wired and the second floor unit is wireless, connected to the third floor unit above it. This configuration allowed me to place the second floor unit closer to the front of the house where the two Ring doorbells are, without the need for an extender. The system was very easy to set up and the app is great. It is easy to navigate, and settings are straightforward and easy to change. It provides lots of information on status, connected clients, signal strength, speed, etc. It's not as 'advanced' as the typical web-based router configuration interfaces but seems to have everything I needed. I have these in access point mode also, since my gateway acts as a router. I may see if I can change that at some point, but everything works flawlessly, so I may not mess with it. The great part is that I now have full wi-fi speed everywhere in the house and everything loads much faster. Live feeds on the Ring doorbells take less than a second to start and video is crisp and clear. I'm also getting excellent signal strength readings from all our outdoor cameras and doorbells, with readings in the -40s. Streaming starts faster on every TV, and we haven't had a single issue since we started using this system. Also, you can customize settings for every connected device, like which Deco you prefer it connect to and if you want to restrict it to a certain band (both default to 'Auto'). This is useful in certain cases, like for our two Ring doorbells, I set them both to preferred connection to the second floor Deco because it's the closest one. That way if it gets unplugged or there's a power outage, this will ensure it always connects to the closest one. I left most everything else on Auto and that seems to work fine, and it seems to select the best (closest) Deco. I've also had no issues with 5Ghz devices connecting to the 2.4Ghz band. Our phones have 6Ghz capability, so I specifically connected them to that network, since it has a different SSID. Signal strength and speed on that network is also excellent everywhere. I made both the main and guest network SSIDs and passwords the same as our old system. Most 2.4Ghz clients connected to the new system automatically. Any clients we had on the 5Ghz band had to be reconnected because our old system had those networks separate. That wasn't a big deal, and this new setup is simpler to work with, having both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz combined. The guest mode works great. We use that network for my wife's home-based business for her clients to connect to because it isolates connected clients from our main network and devices. You can easily turn it on and off in the app as well. I couldn't be happier, especially given how affordable this system was. I know you can spend a lot more, but wow this one is awesome and a great price. When I bought it, the price was $269 for new, but Amazon also had one from 'Amazon Resale' in 'Like New' condition for $219, which I bought. It all works fine, but when I received the product, it had a sticker on the box stating that it was 'Refurbished', which was no disclosed in the listing, which stated it looks and works like new and included ALL original accessories and contents, noting minor damage to the product box. What I received did not include any instructions or manuals and included a slip that said these could be obtained on-line and were not included with refurbished products. It also stated that it had a 90-day warranty but the original warranty that would come with a new product did not apply. While I'm thrilled with the product and it does work, I feel this was a bait and switch situation on Amazon's part. I highly recommend this system.

I typically don't write reviews but this time I feel I really want to write one for this product. My home is is not that big (~2000 sq ft) and in the past I have been using Google Nest router with a Nest point. The next router is located in the living room and the point is in the office. The connection in office is every weak and unstable. My internets speed is 400M download but I only get around 20M download in my office, and recently it even dropped to around 1M. I tired to reset and router and place the point at different locations but still no help. And the signal on my Ring doorbell and another Ring camera right outside of garage door were also very week. My Tesla on the drive way can barely detect the wifi signal. Finally I decided to try a different router. After reading so many reviews, I decided to go with Eero 6+ and I bought the package with two Eero 6+ units. Setup process was not smooth and it took me a couple of trials to get it up running and I can get over 100M download speed in my office. Much better than before so I was happy, until soon after I realized this product has ZERO parent control functions in the App unless you pay $99/year for the subscription???? this is totally absurd. I immediately returned the Eero 6+ and purchased this TP-link Deco AXE5400. The setup process was smooth and I could setup everything in less than 10 minutes. I placed the second Deco unit at the same location as the previous Nest Point. When I tested the internet speed, I was totally blown away!!! 400+M download speed everywhere in my home now!! I should have thrown away the Nest crap much earlier and switch to this product. Why should I have been suffering slow internet connections for such a long time when paying for 400M internet? This TP link Deco router is great, and App is easy to use. The only thing needs to improve is that it is hard to tell which device is which as the name shown in the App is not obvious. For example, we have three iPhones with different name in the family but all three are shown as "iPhone" so I need some extra work to figure out which devices are kids devices in order to setup parent control. But overall this is a great product for this price.

So far not so good. A quick background for me. I worked previously as a Network Engineer for over 10 years, with multiple degrees and certifications in the field. 4 years ago I left networking behind and moved into a different field. So I'm not new to this stuff at all. I purchased the XE75 (AXE5400) about a week ago. Setup was quick and easy. I initially set it up using the 6GHz backhaul, in AP mode. (I have a firewall upstream managing all the routing, DHCP, etc.) It worked for about 48 hours then everything went sideways. I couldn't get the "satellite" unit to connect to the "main" unit. I tried rebooting, moving the units closer together, checked the firmware, etc. and nothing worked, so I connected them both via Ethernet. I bought this particular model so I can use the 6 GHz band for the dedicated backhaul. At any rate, the Ethernet backhaul worked, and seems to be working well still. That being said, the 6 Ghz backhaul SHOULD work and it doesn't. That's very disappointing. With a work around for the backhaul problem in place...a couple days later I started just randomly losing my connection to the network. The SSID would disappear on my phone (and other devices) and it would automatically switch over to my LTE connection. I thought perhaps it had to do with a roaming issue so I checked that fast roaming was enabled, and it was not, so I enabled it but the problem persisted. I disabled fast roaming then I disabled beamforming, and the problem persisted. I prefer to mess with a single variable at a time so I know what fixes the problem. Neither of these settings solved my problem. I reached out to support about this, and they suggested the above steps, as well as disabling the security on my Guest Wireless network. I'm testing that as I write this. I will report back on my findings with that. When it works, which is intermittent at this point, it's been great. I've seen some pretty good reviews from some people that seem to be pretty qualified on the topic and have had a great experience so far. All I can say about that is I believe them, so there must be a production quality issue here and possibly some faulty hardware. Support is supposed to be calling me soon to talk to me. We'll see if that actually happens, and like I said previously, I will try to report back on that conversation. As of this moment, if that call doesn't put me on a solid path to resolution I will likely be returning these. P.S. - Something I observed, in AP mode you loose a lot of the security features outlined in the product description. That makes sense to me since they are routing functions, but keep that in mind. I use a Firewalla Purple upstream for all my routing, and content filtering needs. No monthly subscription! It's affordable, and works very very well. So all those extra features provided by TP-Link I don't need, and never intended to use. I literally just need my wireless devices to connect to the network, and it doesn't seem to be handling that well at the moment. *Update* So support did call me and they remotely connected to my Deco units. We did some troubleshooting for about 2 hours. We tested various things and they collected logs and other info to analyze further. After a few more emails back and forth afterwards we came to the conclusion that the 160Mhz band was causing problems. A setting I overlooked during my own troubleshooting, but when you click on your SSID password it brings up a few more options and at the bottom of the page you can select 160 or 80. After setting it to 80 things stabilized, in fact I don't have any problems at all except on the outside edges of my home and in my garage (my home is about 5,000 sq. ft. not counting the garage) I might just need another deco as I'm likely experiencing signal strength issues in those places. I did not realize my 2 year old iPhone doesn't play well with the 160Mhz band, and a lot of other devices for that matter. Even though the 160Mhz option is marked as recommended I wouldn't use it unless you know your devices support it. At any rate the problem seems to be resolved and support was very persistent. I actually got to the point where I was tired of troubleshooting it and told them so and wanted to just return these units but they really wanted to figure the problem out, and I think they did. So because of both of these reasons I increased my rating to 4 stars. One more thing, during our troubleshooting I noticed new firmware was released. The release notes mentioned wireless backhaul stability and general wireless stability improvements. I did NOT update during troubleshooting (again because I didn't want too many variables in play here). Once things were stable for a few days I did roll the update. It's been 24 hours and I have not noticed any problems. I want to disconnect my wired backhaul and see if that problem is now resolved with the update. I'll report back when I have a chance to test. If it does work that will be huge! I'm hoping this review helps others avoid some time troubleshooting. At this point I'd say my opinion of these has changed and I would now recommend them. Even though I can't take advantage of some of the features yet (i.e. Wifi 6e, 160 Mhz band) I got this unit to future proof my home network and because for the price and feature ratio you can't beat it with the other brands. Based on my experience with support they're determined to make sure they work. Another Update: I've been running the primary unit connected via Ethernet, and the the satellite unit is backhauled via the 6Ghz band to the primary unit for about 2 weeks now and it's working flawlessly. I suspect the firmware update fixed my stability issues. I'm going to leave my review at 4 stars because of the initial issues I had, but I'd definitely recommend these. Also, I never updated on disabling security on Guest Wifi during initial troubleshooting. It didn't work, as expected, but wanted to make sure others know incase they run into similar issues. Just make sure your firmware is up to date and disable the 160Mhz (use 80 instead) unless you absolutely know for sure your devices utilize 160. Those that don't use 160 will likely run into problems though. Test it yourself and see which works best for your devices and home. Good luck!!

Needed to replace the old Deco M4 which I have been using since 2018. It worked great but its aging showed especially with more devices connected to it and the large lot size of my house. It's close to 7200 sq ft with a guest house in the backyard. With the Deco M4, the wifi signal would be decent reaching to the guest house but the signal quality would drop about half or more. And, I needed at least 4 mesh satellites to relay the wifi signal. The XE75 changed all that. With the wifi 6e technology, wifi signal is a lot better and no more traffic getting congested. The wifi signal in the guest house is getting about 70 to 80% of the full strength signal which is good considering how far away it is from the main mesh device acting as the router. Also, the tri band feature is a super addition. Having a device able to use the 6ghz band is so good. Not to mention the upgraded wifi security protocol from WPA2 to WPA3. A fore warning, some older devices may not be compatible with WPA3, so it'll refuse to connect to the wifi even if you set the XE75 to support both WPA2/WPA3. I had one such device, an old iPad. To resolve this, I had to create a separate guest network within the XE75 app and set it to use only WPA2. Setting up the XE75 was a breeze. Took less than 15mins. It is also future proof. I'm looking to cut the cord with Spectrum (expensive and only has old cable internet) and switch to fiber internet with At&t. Unfortunately, 1GIG is the fastest offered in my area at the moment but the XE75 is more than capable to handle it. I bought the XE75 with a great deal on Prime Day for like $180 for the 3-pack. If you ever needed to upgrade your home wifi mesh, I highly recommend the XE75 if you can get it on a deal. If faster ports are important to you, I suggest looking at the XE75 Pro.

This mesh Wi-fi network system has been working very well for me. Easy to set up and use and it provides great connectivity and bandwidth throughout the house. I had an issue with one of the APs that would go offline once a month for no apparent reason. I chatted with Deco support and JONATHAN was most helpful. He quickly determined that I need to have the unit replaced and took care of it.

I am an network engineer with 30+ years of experience - way longer than WiFi has been around. I have designed and implemented many business WiFi systems that support seamless roaming over larger areas so when I say that this system is a pathetic implementation of meshed WiFi and roaming I do have experience to back it up. I bought this system because I wanted to upgrade my home's WiFi system with a 6GHz WiFi 6e capability and I was sorely disappointed in this system's meshing and roaming capability. I performed extensive testing with demanding applications on modern Android phones, Apple iPads, Samsung tablets and laptops. The bottom line - this system is an abysmal failure for supporting roaming in a meshed WiFi network. This system's ability to allow devices to roam between access points is pathetic to non-existent. You might as well have 3 independent WiFi access points in your home. In spite of everything you read about this system it is technically inferior because it relies on using the exact same WiFi frequencies on all units when they are meshed! This pretty much kills the ability for devices to smoothly roam between the APs without dropping, re-scanning and re-connecting. The reviews for WiFi access points generally only emphasize performance - how fast you can download and upload and how much the signal degrades based on distance to the AP. That is fine for a single AP however, any system like this one that is supposedly offering a fully meshed solution it is an inadequate measure of performance and completely leaves out test results for the main reason to consider a meshed system in the first place. In fact, I have yet to read a single review that addresses a consumer grade system's meshing/roaming capabilities and performance. This system like almost all of the 'consumer' grade systems do not set the WiFi frequencies independently for each AP. This system chooses the exact same WiFi channels for 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz for each node. This makes it all but impossible for devices to smoothly roam between AP's. Why you may ask? Because the device has a difficult time distinguishing between a signal that is fading from a more distant AP and the stronger signal of the next AP (that it has yet to connect to) effectively causing the device to stay connected to the distant AP until it is overwhelmed by the interference of the stronger signal from the the same WiFi frequency on the closer AP next to the device. Eventually the device just drops the connection to the distant AP and goes through a 'scan and connect' to the closer AP with the stronger signal. This will always interrupt VoIP (WiFi) calls and other latency sensitive applications such as gaming and trading apps. This system purports to offer 'Fast Roaming' (802.11r) but it is totally ineffective. Next there is the issue of frequency management. A good system will only use 2.4GHz bands with client devices as a last resort. Either because the client device can only connect on 2.4GHz channels (many IoT devices only work on 2.4GHz channels) or because a device has gone beyond the useful range of a 5GHz channel. 5GHz channels are a much lower power level and don't penetrate walls very well. 2.4GHz channels offer better penetration through walls and floors. A well designed and implemented WiFi AP will 'encourage' devices to connect on 5GHz channels because 5GHz offers much better performance than 2.4GHz. This system does not do this AT ALL!! In fact it will mostly connect at 2.4GHz - especially once a device moves far enough away to make 5GHz to weak. From that point on - even when switching (I can't call it roaming because it is a drop, scan and re-connect) to the next AP it will tend to remain on 2.4GHz channels. Only devices that stay relatively still, close to an AP and rarely move to another AP will utilize 5GHz channels and even then for no reason the device may switch from 5GHz to 2.4GHz even if it doesn't change position and has a strong 5GHz signal. This could be caused by nearby interference (your neighbor's WiFi). Please don't confuse this with the selectable option that causes the AP to only use 5GHz channels - an option that is disruptive to most devices and can actually make roaming and the overall WiFi experience worse by depriving devices the ability to use 2.4GHz channels when 5GHz channels would be ineffective. The absolute worst aspect of this system (and most other 'consumer' meshed WiFi systems) is that it used the exact same 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz channels for each node making it impossible to mitigate any external WiFi interference near each node (mostly your neighbor's and outside WiFi systems) since each node is bound to be exposed to different WiFi frequency interference. There are so few WiFi channels available that this means at some locations you will have good WiFi performance with the nearest AP and at other locations performance will be poor due to local interference newar that AP. The bottom line don't buy this if you are looking for smooth and seamless roaming between APs. The high cost of this system just means you are throwing more money away - not getting a good solution. In case you are wondering - I returned mine.

I am a techno-geek. Have degrees in electronic engineering and in computer science (networking). Have been working in the computer and telecommunications fields for the past 45 years. Way before Al Gore even invented the internet. I have a ranch style house with full basement; approximately 3,000 sq feet + 2 car attached garage. I normally have 2 routers active; main router for all ethernet connected devices as well as providing VPN connection (Linksys WRT3200ACM); which also connects to the 2nd wireless router a netgear R7000 for my normal open WIFI for non VPN traffic and guests. Both routers are in the downstairs, centered, and work good. The VPN router/WIFI covers the areas of the house for fixed/PC/Laptop that use VPN; but the netgear providing clear WIFI couldn't cover the entire house with a usable signal; even though the R7000 is a very good high end wireless router. It covered MOST of the house, but none to the garage and very little outside front or back; and a couple of sketchy places in the house. I tried wifi extenders and even another router as an access point. Problem with those are there is no smooth transition when walking around with a cell phone, tablet, taking laptop out on the back deck, and other mobile scenarios. Great if you're going to a spot and staying there; but extenders and AP are not good if you're moving around. So, I went with a Mesh system; the TP-Link AXE5400 XE75. This has been awesome. Setup is easy, just follow the app instructions. I left my primary Linksys VPN router as is, and simply removed the Netgear R7000 and replaced it with the TP-Link. (Yes, double NAT is fine for 99% of traffic; IF the primary router, in my case the linksys, is set up properly to allow traffic flow to the TP-LINK to work properly). Anyway; the main TP-LINK router is where the netgear was, and I wireless connect the second slave node on the main floor. This is working great. My VPN linksys wired/wireless router still covers the 2 home offices that use the vpn; and most of the house for the other rare vpn occasions. The new TP-Link XE75, between the downstairs node and the main floor node, are covering every inch of the house, garage, back yard, and front yard. And being I gave it the SAME SSID name and password that the Netgear USED TO BE, I didn't have to change any settings in ANY of my wifi devices. Not even security cameras, Roku, AppleTV, phones, tablets, laptops, etc... All the devices were instant connections. And when I roam around the house, yard, deck, etc... the portable devices like phones and tablets transfer from the one node to the other node seamlessly. I was considering getting a 3rd node, but after using this for the last month, there's no reason to spend more money. This is the best setup I could have wanted. Definitely buy it if you need PORTABLE WIFI COVERAGE for phones, tablets, etc... that move around a lot. If your devices are pretty well fixed and don't move, like streaming tv boxes, smart tv, laptop/computer in an office, etc. then learn to better position your existing wifi router for better coverage or look into using an extender. Extenders are great if you're staying in one place; because it's shows a different SSID than the main and your device can't auto switch between them. But for fixed devices or scenarios where you stay put for long periods of time, extenders are great. Especially for the cost of the TP-Link. I got it on sale, but an extender is still much cheaper. But if you need the mesh technology so you can be more mobile with uninterrupted connections, then this is the mesh wifi for you.
