Thanks for your very clear and useful explanation of the Back Haul feature and how that makes the WiFi 6 capability of this Deco mesh system immediately useful even without WiFi 6 compatible devices. I have a TP-Link Deco mesh system in a very old cottage with very thick walls and it works effortlessly and very reliably. The only problems I have had is when a recent thunderstorm knocked out my wifi settings and I had to reset and reconnect all my three Deco units. Not a problem caused by TP-Link. Really enjoy watching out for and then watching your video reviews. You do a great job! I started with your long Garmin Vivoactive 4 reviews and have never looked back! Take care and thanks!

I love you man!! You just answered the 10 million dollar quest. I can now use my current Modem/WiFi Router combo to do a mesh system. Your the MAN!! 🙂

I don't understand why switching the base router to DECO is so much work for your IoT. Can't you use the same wifi name and password and do a perfect swtich ?

[ItzWraggy]

One of the best videos regarding wifi 6e very detailed and you explained things very well and clear. I think i’ve decided to get myself one of these Deco mesh systems I think it will benefit my gaming needs

[MSUAZ]

This is a great video!! Thanks for the in-depth info! I’ve been researching mesh systems non-stop and the TP-Links seem pretty sweet. My wife and I are moving into a new house so having one upstairs & one down will be awesome.

I bought two of the non-pro systems and I'm hoping they play well together in my three separate network home. I have a VPN network for my surfing, a non-VPN network for my work and streaming, and an separate VPN network for my IoT devices. I've had several tp-link devices over the years and have been quite happy with them.

I'm currently running separate amplifi HD devices on two networks using a mesh setup, and a third amplifi non-mesh setup for the IoT devices through a pfSense router/firewall. All the older Wifi5 standard. What sold me on adopting 6E is the dedicated 6 Ghz backhaul and three nodes to use as APs to hook my network drives and Plex server into. I frequently move large files across the network and hope I'll get the speeds promised by tp-link.

Anyway, enjoyed the review, thanks!

Great review. I've already bought these and will be transporting them to a house overseas, so not yet tried. One question, why did you leave the 2.4GHz network on the modem/router? Why not just disable all wifi on the modem and set up a 2.4GHz network with the same access point name on the Deco? I've swapped out routers using this technique and all my smart light bulbs etc continued to work without any intervention

Using the XE75 fixed a ping issue I was having. An MMO I play was indicating a 83-117ms ping with the ISP gateway, but after changing it to bridge mode and using the Deco XE75 it dropped it down to 58-62ms.

i liked how thorough you were with your review and commentary. keep it up :} *liked and subscribed

[MannyRataul]

This was a very thorough and informative video! I am definitely picking up these nodes for my home wifi network.

[StuartBelote]

My last 3 network upgrades I have not had to migrate any of my IOT devices. I simply reused my SSID and password from my old router and all the devices reconnected.

[PindCanada]

So i have a question, so main router shows its Wifi name and Deco Access Shows other, so how can we use 1 name only for both ?!!! Or we have to bridge main router

[LifeOfaMatt]

Awesome video. THANK YOU. I’m grabbing the 3 pack tomorrow to replace my Telus boost wifi unit; its been nothing but problems since installed last week.

[NadirHemani-bprc]

Hi this is Nadir hemani. Thank you for video which was very knowledgeable. Got a question. You said that shut down 5 GHz on your modem and shit down 2.4 Gha on the Deco Ace75. And to use deco in ACCESS POINT mode.

How you can do that?
Do you have any video for this

Can you please help

[goldviper]

I learned a lot from your video. Thanks so much for the info.

I just bought a 3-node setup today (Dec of 2023 for $350) and plan to hook it up tomorrow.

My current router is a dual band, and actually has 2 SSID's (2.4 and 5.0) - All of my devices have to connect to one or the other and be switched manually if I need to.

From what I gather, this XE75 system will just have a single SSID, and each device will automatically connect to whatever band it can get the best signal on? - (Does that sound right?)

- Some of my devices are 2.4 only, so those I am not too concerned with. I am wondering about the last 3 security cameras I bought that can use Wi-Fi 6 (not 6e). I am hoping those connect automatically with the higher speed of the 5.0 band, while using the wi-fi 6 higher speeds?

My wife works from home and her Cisco Meraki has to connect with an ethernet cable, so I am hoping it can plug in to one of the lan ports on a node and get connected, without my having to run 75' of cable to her new home-office we are setting up for her. (fingers-crossed)

[avijitjha]

Great video. Im new to the mesh system. My old router sucks. I cant get good speeds on my android tv in another room. Cellphone gets gud speed in the exact same place. Will the deco improve the signal on my tv?

[Stormyism]

The more powerful, and more expensive Deco XE200 is out now. Worth a look if you are wanting even more capability / future proofing. They have better range (more internal antennas) and sport a 10GB WAN port and 16 streams, 10 more than the XE75 Pro. I'm probably going to pick up at least 1 of the XE75's though for one of my out buildings. I do love how these all play well together.

[sponge]

Thank you for the video! I just purchased one of these mesh kits. I have a question, I understand what you did when you used the deco in access point mode, however, wouldn’t you lose the 6 ghz back haul feature?

[pedrovervaeke]

I used them for a week. The range was a disaster. I returned them and went again for the asus RT-AX86 and the RT-AX55. Another thing, I don't like the paywall for the additional features.
