Pros and cons

According to our router expert

  • This system supports WiFi 6, which gives you a more stable connection if you connect a lot of devices.
  • Thanks to the screw holes, you can mount the WiFi stations to your wall or ceiling.
  • This mesh WiFi system has 3 stations, giving you coverage in your entire home.
  • You need suitable devices in order to take advantage of all of the benefits of WiFi 6, the WiFi points always set up an improved connection with each other.
  • Dual Band routers connect via 2 frequencies, which makes your connection less stable.

Description

Provide functional internet to every corner of your home with the Deco X50 PoE routers. You can connect an Ethernet cable to the port with 2.5Gbps transfer speed. Your TP-Link mesh router shares this data to all your devices via 2 frequencies. The 5 GHz frequency reaches 2400Mbps and the 2.4GHz band transmits 570Mbps. The routers don't need a power cord, thanks to PoE. So you can mount them anywhere, even to your wall or ceiling. After setting up the routers, you have seamless internet because of seamless roaming. That way, you don't lose connection for a second when you're walking through your house.

Functions as described, but not safe

  • WiFi works fine and fast
  • Wall/ceiling mounting or freestanding
  • Configuration only via app

The system itself works fine. The only remark is that if you want to use the system as a wireless router, you have to put the main unit between your modem (or switch) and the other two units. I already had a router, so I set them up as access points. I would recommend reading the manual carefully before purchasing. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend the product because of the following: 1) I cannot configure the WiFi network from my PC (it is possible to view the settings). Apparently config only goes through the app, which requires a TP-link account. So everything goes through their servers, i.e. I am completely dependent on TP-Link's security measures and good will. What if one of their employees looks at my network settings, or worse, logs into my network remotely? No one can guarantee that such a thing will never happen. 2) Even if I am ok with working everything through their service, there is another problem that I cannot secure my TP-link account with 2FA. So anyone anywhere in the world can view and change my WiFi settings if they have my password. This is no longer of this time. Somehow you expect such a brand to be concerned with security. Hoping for improvement is pointless when I see TP-link's forums. Despite many dissatisfied customers citing exactly the two issues above, there is clearly no intention to do anything about it. I also find it strange that Coolblue has such products in their range. Perhaps this won't bother most consumers (they should be), but for professional users it's not acceptable, and a warning wouldn't be out of place.

Recommended for home use

  • Easy to install
  • Reach everywhere in the house
  • Choice of PoE or adapter
  • Registration required with TP-Link

Purchased this set to replace TP-Link EAP225. Made use of the current connections in the house. Installation is very easy and the operation and range is better than the old access points it replaces. In addition, my house is a 1970's house with concrete floors and stone walls. For home use I recommend this set over that of "real" access points. Unfortunately, not the entire advertised speed is achieved, but the speed remains between 300 and 500 Mbps. Which is better than what I got with the old access points. Maybe things will get better when my old equipment is replaced with Wifi6 capable equipment. It is a pity that you must have a TP account when installing. It is a true “set and forget” system.
