Thank you Steve. I immediately paused your video and went to my router Admin screen and updated the firmware and also selected the automatic updates going forward. Thank you for teaching us this important step.

Hi Steve, and thank you for sharing. Is there a maximum length of ethernet cable for the mesh devices? I'm getting one of the TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi systems and I would like to set them up using cable. Also, what type of cable do you recommend?

Hi, thanks for the video, but I don’t have access to the router. I travel around the country in an RV and work out of the RV. Most parks have very poor signal, and sometimes my hotspot signal is also not usable. What do you recommend? Thank You!🌷

Do you have a video on configuring a gateway (say AT&T) with a deco mesh. Maybe talk about the IP Passthru or Bridge mode

[fjay]

Is it possible to change the WiFi channels on the tp link deco mesh system?

[butrosajang]

Thank you so much for all the support information I learned a lot from you God blessed you can give you more wisdom.

What difference does it make if the DNS server tracking my searches/sites/usage is my ISP vs. Google or Cloudflare? Aren't all 3 of them going to collect my data and sell it?

[biglouie]

Already seeing improvements with each episode. Thanks! Spent much time with the cable tech who actually didn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.

[MercerAR]

How do you change channels using the TP-Link App? Thanks

I’m purchasing the TP Deco XE75 and wondering if I set up the two XE75 as AP on the Xfinity XB7 gateway still using the gateway as my router, will I be getting the same performance from the XE75 as I would get by putting the gateway in bridge mode?

Hi Steve. Hope all is well. Excellent and enjoyable video as always. I have watched a few in your series, but have honestly not watched them all yet. While I truly love all this tech, I am not so tech savvy, so my questions are very basic, although you might have already answered these questions in another video in this series. If so, I apologize and will appreciate it if you could just point me to the right video. Anyway, I have the wireless modem that xfinity supplied to me 4 years ago. Can I play (should I?) with settings on their modem? And, if I can't, can I just add a mesh system to improve speeds, or am I stuck with whatever I am getting from xfinity. Honestly, I really can't complain too much about speeds because it is just my wife and I and our various gadgets plus the 20 wifi cameras (hahaha) that are not continuously recording, and a video doorbell. I also currently have a 2 unit Orbi mesh system that's about 6 years old. So I don't feel an urge to make changes, but think I might want to upgrade soon. Thank you as always!

Thanks for simplifying this overwhelming issue ..question? How do you improve signal strength for ring cameras on a brick structure?...I have tried extenders such AC1750, ring extenders and yet no solutions only wasted money and efforts. Thanks again

[valyndaturner]

I love vide. You always received great information. I also enjoy watching your tank. I have a reef tank.

[thomasm]

Great video Steve. I am considering subscribing to a Verizon's $25 per month 5G internet service. Will a mesh network work with this? Thanks.

[matthewh]

Fantastic information! … if I knew what you were talking about. Lol

[batuksri]

I dont understand this wired backhaul malarkey.
If I have to run cable backhaul, I wouldn’t need mesh.
I’ll just get a regular router and an AP.

I would love to enjoy your seemingly informative video but my WiFi keeps quitti...

Why is this so ridiculously complicated? So angry right now.
