Linksys Velop AC1200 Dual-Band Whole Home WiFi Intelligent Mesh System, 3-Pack Black (Discontinued by Manufacturer) - Find Limited Stock Now! Review

Because I have a large house, I previously had three different mesh systems to overcome the annoying delays of the WiFi extenders: Orbi by Netgear, Deco by TP-LINK and Tri-Band by Linksys Velop. Velop's dual-band mesh wireless system operates closer to TP-LINK Deco than its larger tri-band relative, mainly because its antenna range is limited, affecting stability. (Scroll down to the comparison section for more info on all of these systems.) If you have a traditional two-story home under 3,000…

I have about 50 WiFi devices in my house plus over 100 Zwave/zigbee. Do the setup in the evening. run updates. Half of the devices were not connected in the morning.

Problems with Velops start almost as soon as the box is opened. First of all, the initial setup of the mesh network seems to depend on whether the iPhone or Android app is running. Something is problematic as I will not assimilate into Apple's or Google's quest for world domination. Why Linksys chose to ship water for Apple and Google remains a mystery. Linksys tech support has also been ridiculously incompetent to provide a straight answer to a simple question: is it mandatory to have an…

I live in a two story house and use my phones, tablets, computers and many other connected devices in an area of 3,400 square feet. I have an Xfinity modem/router upstairs in my media room. When we moved in, the wi-fi signal from the modem/router would often drop from my office laptop downstairs, making things difficult. I've tried several different Wi-Fi extenders, but none of them have been consistently good. And when I was in the backyard trying to get my phone to drive my Sonos speakers, it

I expected this mesh to be a pretty average product. No, that is not so. Basically it's a huge two-hour crap that then performs below standards. Linksys requires you to use their own (low-quality) setup app, which really annoys me. No, I don't need another app cluttering my phone, especially the ones you've added just to be more present in your customers' lives. I have tried installing three units on each floor of my home (upstairs, downstairs and basement) but have been told repeatedly that…

So far setting up is a headache! I'm not at all impressed with how difficult these nodes are to set up. I bought a set of 3 knots to make my 3000 square feet. Feet, and the knots keep telling me they're too far apart! No more than 30 feet between them! I was hoping they would be easy to set up to cover my entire house. I even connected 2 nodes to the internet and one still doesn't connect. I start again on two other nodes. There's nothing quite like spending a few hours building and running…

I had a Google Wifi Mesh and found the coverage to be mediocre. Then I got this, oh my god, it's a lot worse. Not to mention the hours and frustrations it took to set it up. I was considering using this to replace my Netgear Nighthawk but I was wrong. I really didn't really like Netgear because all the last years of Netgear I had just broke and became useless within 1 year. But at least the installation was easy. But this Linksys really knows how to make life miserable. Why should I use your…
