I have a similar setup to the one in your demo. Initially, I had issues to set up a second node and had to restart the whole system from scratch three times before actually succeeding to set up the second node. The main issue is that I had the second node sitting literally 5ft away from the main node in plain sight (no walls, nothing) and the app kept me asking to move closer. I just kept repeating the same procedure until it worked. The third node setup went very smoothly and then I moved 2 nodes to their definitive locations and wired them with Ethernet and they were instantly connected to the main node (actually, to a Linksys LGS108 8-port Gigabit switch). I just finished setting it up and am getting 13ms ping, 404 Mbps download and 39.1 Mbps upload. And I'm getting full bars of wifi in all 3 floors and the back garden. It's very close to the speed in my contract with the modem provider and it feels great! Thanks for the step by step guide, really helpful.

I've had a velop 4 node setup for around 3 years now, and there is 1 BIG issue. I have changed my IP address range instead of using the default, added a bunch of IP reservations and some port forwarding; all very normal stuff for any regular router, as you can imagine it takes some time to set all these details up after the initial install. So far all is good and fully working, BUT wait until you have a power cut, guess what, all of the setup you did is completely lost, and the IP range goes back to default, so any static endpoint on your network will stop working until you redo the entire setup again! Normally I wouldn't care about such a problem, but there is NO BACKUP functionality! Do you literally have to go through the pain of setting everything up again every time! It's not just power cuts that reset everything, I've also unplugged the nodes to replicate them and guess what, yup all the setting disappear. Many have complained for years but Linksys have still not added the backup features! It's the 1 & only issue I've found, and because of Linksys' attitude I would not recommend this mesh router.

Hey bud, thanks for the comprehensive review. I'm looking at installing a Mesh at home and I'm considering if I should either get the AC3900 or the AC6600... first option being almost half the price and as fat as I understand, what makes it a lower AC number is that it's a dual band instead of a triband, which I don't really care as I'll be doing wired connections for the nodes so won't be using the backhaul. Can I assume that the AC3900 should be as fast as the AC6600 on a wired setup? The 2.4 and 5Ghz bands seem to be equality as fast on both units as far as I can tell and being a small form factor would be a plus as well. Would love to hear your opinion/recommendations. Cheers!
@Embattled52114 жыл бұрын
Answering for future questions. The difference between the two is based on "dual-band" vs "tri-band". What this means is how much total available bandwidth is available. On these units, it's around 860mbps per 5ghz band and 400mbps on the 2.4ghz band. Dual-band has 1x 2.4 and 1x 5.0, where as tri- has an extra 5.0. because you can only use one frequency band at a time on most devices, you pick the best one. This means the higher option (with 1x 2.4 and 2x 5.0) has about 1720mbps. The lower price has half the speed (and makes sense to be half the price). HERE'S THE CATCH: You can only use one of those bands at a time on most clients, so the maximum speed is still 860mbps. Because the max speed is unchanged on a single device, the second 5.0 band allows for 2x the devices at the same speed (it will put each device on the fastest band, so device A will run on band 1 and device B will pick the unused band 2). This means if you have a home fibre connection, you will never reach 940mbps on a single device, only 860. The Ethernet connections on the device are gigabit, so you can get it that way, but that's not why you buy this product. Ultimately, the decision between the two is for people who have both: more than 860mbps network traffic on each wifi node (on the LAN), or an internet plan with more than 860mbps AND a regular usage of more than one device demanding large internet usage (because you can split 940 to the two bands for two devices to get a full 2x 570mbps on each client). The higher version seems like a niche case for me, but for the home media enthusiast, or (more likely) a larger, business style deployment would take most advantage of the upgraded hardware.

One node stays plugged in to the ISP’s router/modem on the far end of this house. Second owner and not running cable, as I pay $17.45 for life thru the elderly assistant finance dept. I have two nodes to connect and one goes downstairs to family room other 56 ft to kitchen. The kitchen node should provide a signal to listen to talk radio or videos. I am retired and just my wife and I live here. Son’s and grandchildren come here and need the internet so they can swallow after chewing food or when to exhale! I have never seen anything like this. But today’s young ones are hooked. Mesh WiFi extender is the latest technology. Know it connects thru Bluetooth? Or is this a WiFi relay technology? Bluetooth is limited to 60ft if no walls, doors or appliances. I bought this used but in perfect condition as the owner needed more for larger house. It’s more to clean, maintain and god love them if they can afford a $2,890 monthly payment!

What's the pathway of your hard wire setup? You have two ethernet cords at each node, but where are they coming from/where are they going? Are you doing Modem->in/Node 1/out->in/Node2/out->in/Node 3, or are you doing Modem->in/Node1/out->Router/Switch that splits off to Node 2 and Node 3 individually? I'm doing a combo of hard wire and wireless in my house, but I only have one hard wire set up to each of my rooms. If I set up Node 1 at my modem and hook it up to Node 2, I don't have a second wire in Node 2's room that I could trail back to connect to Node 3 in a different room. Essentially I have one point of origin for my four rooms which is where my older 4-port wireless router used to be. So, could I get away with doing Modem->in/Node 1/out->4-port Switch and then have the switch connect to Nodes 2 and 3 through separate switch ports (ports 2 and 3, etc)? Thanks!

Thank you for the video... after watching all of the problems you had setting this up, and comparing it to how easy Apple is, you helped make my buying decision. Staying with AirPort!

Yeah, but if you compare the Airport to the AmpliFi HD or eero Pro, it doesn’t really compare anymore, mainly due to its age.

Do you always have to have one hard wired to your modem, even if you have a router?

These are not extensions of your router, they replace your router. If you are still keeping your main router, I would look into adding access points for your current system.

Guys! You could also use Laptops or WiFi PCs on setting up the 1st node by connecting to the Velop's setup WiFi network which is usually named as _VelopSetupxxx. > open a browser and type the default IP address of the system: 192.168.1.1 using a Browser and then just click the Velop Logo or just continue ['using a browser by clicking a highlighted hypertext']. > Log in using your Velop or Admin password or use your Linksys Smart WiFi account to log in. > then you'll be inside the Dashboard. > click C.A. at the bottom right corner of the dashboard's screen (be careful because ['C.A.'] is too small. > Connectivity. > Velop Setup. > Rename the 1st or Mother node's WiFi settings = then click ['Setup Node'] > then your 1st/Mother node is setup.

I have cable modem setup as bridge connected to MicroTek hEX router. I then have 3 connected wired Wifi routers configured as access points. If I replaced the 3 access points and put a Velop connect wired, can all 3 be access points working as a mesh network? If I am forced to have the master be a Router and not access point, then this is not good for me.

Trying to 'extend' my wifi router network to my condo garage to connect to my Tesla Model 3. Will this work for that purpose?
