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.
TP-Link’s Deco M9 Plus delivers fast mesh networking, network-level antivirus, and a smart home hub all in one pretty package.
Adds extra bandwidth to its dedicated wireless backhaul on the fly; Also supports hardwired backhaul, if you have the infrastructure for it; Built-in, if basic, smart home hub;
No Z-Wave support; Not the fastest router on the market; Low-profile enclosure keeps the antennas low, too;
