Setup is simple and easy, the app is pretty intuitive. Fast speed, reliable connection, and no deadzones that I have found. Alexa native features work well with other connected devices throughout the house. Handles all the devices and streaming going on in the house no problems.

I use a virgin broadband router in modem mode connected to a Netgear 2.4 cheap hub that gives 300mbps, my virgin is the 100mbps, max speeds I have been getting is about 40/50 on WiFi, haveing lots of wifidevices phones computers televisions and hive I thought it was time to upgrade router was about...

The Wi-Fi is working perfectly and with strong coverage in a multilevel house (3 storeys 2000-2500 sqft). Only area of improvement is that I have notbeen able to set up VPN yet...

The Internet used to be easy. If you're only watching low-resolution videos and checking your email, then you don't need that much bandwidth from your Wi-Fi connection. But these days, we have much greater expectations.

With a rank of #5 out of 15 Wi-Fi systems tested, the Deco M9 Plus lands right at the bottom of the top third of products. The good news is that its subranks are good for benchmarks that count, i.e. system, capacity and 5 GHz RvR.

The Deco M9 Plus offers better performance than its predecessor, and integrates support for IoT devices, but does cost more.

Strong coverage and performance; Easy to setup and configure; Parental controls and antivirus included

A little on the pricey side; Not all smart-home devices are supported (yet

As a mesh router, the TP-Link Deco M9 can't touch the Orbi RBK50, and Netgear remains the only game in town if you want a legit outdoor node. But the Deco outperformed the tri-band Linksys Velop in three of the four indoor test locations, and it did the same in the outdoor locations.

Over the years, I have reviewed several networking products, including powerline and wireless extender solutions. For Mesh Wi-Fi systems , I have reviewed Google Wifi , ASUS Lyra , Aztech AON Mesh. I am very satisfied with TP-Link Deco M5 and has been using it since September 2017.
