      I have no problem, very stable, never need to reboot, must be yours own device.

      • @kml22 @superforever Same - no issues here. Been using it for a few years.

          +1 for no issues, we use them in a warehouse and they work perfectly fine, a little bit hindered by the metal pylons but thats a given.

      • Same, I have never had a issue with these.

  • +9

    I've got these and have never had a problem with them

  • +8

    Ive had this for a couple years now. Been rock solid and have had no issues.

    Paid $200 a month ago for these without the switch, don't even regret it as it has really improved my wifi coverage in my house and stopped all complaints from my kids and wife.

  • Agree with the others commenting here. I’ve had a 2 pack of the M9 units working together with these 3 x M5 units and never had a single issue. Do recommend for a no-fuss network.

    I have 5 of these, firstly 2 units then added another 3 from previous deal. used to be work fine, but last month suddenly only do 2mb speed. Reset all one by one, didn't work. Also parent control stop working since last year. When I change to ISP provided router internet speed is normal. Googled it and found many similar issues.

  • My router is located in the garage (can't be moved). It is not central location so I would like better coverage. Would this be suitable for my use? Easy to install and use?

    • This three pack should provide a maximum coverage area of up to 510m. Very straight forward to setup and theres always customer support or plenty of forums if you need any help.

    • For sure should help. I even have mine going to another in my shed that’s approx 50m - covers my shed in wifi.

      It'd be great for 99% of suburban homes, but there's no guarantee without knowing more about your specific situation (is your garage double brick with lead paint and copper piping, and 50m from your house? Then run some ethernet cable).

    About 2 years. Solid for me.
    Sadly, discovered early on to my horror that the deco app works when I am outside the house or inside with the phone wireless turned off, so it's doing some private tunnel thing to phone home. To leave that on, you really have to trust the manufacturer with your network so you can enjoy the fancy cloud controller thing.
    I do not.
    I run them as access points, so it still works when I block all services for the individual deco unit LAN ip addresses on the router - but no optimisation and such. I have to turn them back on for that.

  • Do these support upto 1000mbps speeds?

    • -1

      Do these, like other tp link and (subsidy) mercusys devices, disregard DNS server settings - bypassing pi-holes?

      • +2

        I have pi hole setup on these

        • Cheers. Curious as Mercusys didn't corporate.

      Deco M5 Wi-Fi 5GHz = up to around 500Mbps.
      Deco M5 Ethernet = around 850Mbps.

    Only 4 in stock left

    The IT guy in and office I work in used these for the office and had issues. Set up 3 around a single floor office using Ethernet backbone and still had everyone losing connection each time they went in their individual offices. Replaced 3 units with one XE75 unit and every person in the office now has a perfect connection.

    Seemed immediately obvious to me. They're flat units. Even with internal antennas, you need as much horizontal projection as possible.

    Probably still worth it for the price. Just don't expect amazing.

  • +2

    Only 2 in stock left

    • Ok got one, so theres probably only 1 left

  • I have a router which I plug 4 ethernet ports into. Can the same be done on this for whichever one replaces my existing router?

    • You can set M5 as router of WiFi access point but M5 only have 2 ports, if you set it as router you will need a switch.
