Review on Vilo Mesh Wi-Fi System AC1200 Dual Band, 4,500 sq ft Coverage (3-Pack) | 3 Gigabit Ethernet Ports, App-Managed Parental Controls | Router & Extender Replacement by Jennifer Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Poor and intermittent bandwidth

I just received this product and yes it was easy to set up and I got 158Mbps download speed initially compared to the 38Mbps I got on my old one device got. After setting up another mesh module and updating the firmware, the throughput dropped to unusable download values of 2-3 Mbit/s and rose to 20 Mbit/s. I restarted the cable modem and then the Vilo devices, gave it about 15 minutes to stabilize and still experienced intermittent performance. I had to go back to the original settings and will try again but for now I am not happy with this product and am planning to return. Update tech support contacted me via email, at their request I performed a factory reset, downloaded the log files, but didn't solve the problem. As I work from home I need a stable internet connection and had to revert to previous settings.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Very expensive
