Review on Wi-Fi Mesh system TP-LINK Deco E4, 2-pack, white by Virot Wrintharawet ᠌

The device itself searches for a firmware ate on some "cloud", downloads it itself (into itself, as I understand it) and reflashes itself. The user does not have access to the firmware files and, accordingly, the ability to manually flash the firmware. On the mechanical side: there is no mounting either on the wall or on the ceiling - you can only put it on a table / cabinet / shelf. The operation indicator (changes color depending on the state) is located on top and is covered with decorative side walls - that is, you can see it only when looking strictly from above - hence it turns out that the maximum installation height is the desktop. But ask your employees or household members - who is ready to keep a WiFi hotspot on their desk half a meter from their heads? Although doctors have not yet proven the harmfulness of WiFi radiation, such a "neighborhood" will, to put it mildly, disturb. The power supply is organized according to the "traditional" scheme - through a separate power supply unit with a pin connector. It is not clear why PoE was not made - after all, the Etrhernet ports of the device are 100 megabits, and implementing PoE over free wires would be as easy as shelling pears. But no - you have to worry about the presence of an outlet for the power supply. And the power cable is only a meter long. Expensive, but at the same time quite a child's toy. All its work is covered in dark darkness - what it does inside it, to whom it transfers your data - no one knows.
