Review on Wavlink Mesh Router: High Power Wi-Fi Extender for Whole-Home Mesh Network by John Graves

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A budget mesh system that works well

Disappointed with budget WiFi devices, I tried this mesh system. Today I am a happy tourist. My house is adobe style with very thick walls and is actually a Faraday cage due to the wire mesh. I was always struggling with constant WiFi throughout the house until this mesh system came along. Pros: Strong Wi-Fi signal everywhere, easy setup (like a techie. If I were a mom I wouldn't have a chance to get this right without help as no instructions are provided). Pure). Looks gorgeous with the ability to turn off the light in a dark bedroom. iOS app for setup - recommended via a browser, simply because the browser often requires re-entering the password. Cons: The instructions are poorly written and can be a problem for inexperienced users. The power cord is too short. Why sell a device that would typically be placed on a table or somewhere high up with a 3ft cord? Finally, the firmware options are limited, and there's not much customization you can do to meet your specific needs. Overall, for a system that's about half the price of the top sellers, a really good setup.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
