Review on 🏠 Enhance Your Home Network with the ARRIS SURFboard mAX Tri-band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System - AX6600 by Gary Flick

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simple Grid: Computers and Accessories

Just finished setting up this morning and so far very happy with the product. Set up was easy, just 2 minor hiccups that were easily fixed. The first problem was the inability of the control application to join the newly created SSID during installation. This is most likely an iPhone security feature that prevents malicious applications from intercepting the SSID. Quitting the app and using the iOS network settings got around the issue. The second problem was that after the mesh setup was complete, the security camera initially failed to connect. This is one of those cheap IoT devices that's just poorly designed. Restarting the camera solved the problem. Otherwise, all my devices are now above -65dB, which is the wireless voice quality signal threshold. Very happy with the performance. Pros + Easy setup + Fantastic coverage + Excellent performance (a quick satellite speed test measured 700 Mbps) + Nice, modern design I'm taking one star off the rating because I knew the cons and made the purchase with full knowledge of the cons have. If you're looking for a simple, high-performance mesh system, this system is a fantastic option. If you like fumbling around and tweaking your wireless network settings, this product isn't for you.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Some flaws
