TP-Link Deco X60. I wanted something simple to be configured through an app, I don't want to do network maintenance at home, I just wanted something simple that worked and this has been flawless.
Meh. Their software is getting worse and worse lol.
No deep links inside the interface, and it logs me out, when I reload the site. Why?
They redesigned the interface for the 10th time, and the Mesh overview screen still isn't shown on the mobile site.
Their mesh solution completely relies on magic and provides no solutions to my TV, which really likes that one ap which it can reach with 1Mbit/s rather than using the one next to it which would archieve 800+Mbit/s
They still persist on using DECT based smart home stuff. Get on with the times and integrate a Thread/Zigbee chip or support USB ones.
The NAS functionality is completely useless as it is way to slow.
No real VLAN support, still.
If you need a stable modem and basic wifi, and telephony they are decent. Anything else is better served by the competition.
Another vote for UniFi gear. I administer four homes for myself and my family, three of them all use UniFi equipment (and the fourth will next time I get over there, it’s in another country).
Only stuff I can reflash with OpenWRT. The glinet APs that come with their own flavour of OpenWRT preinstalled are also ok, but I tent to reflash them with vanilla OpenWRT anyways to get the latest upstream updates.
I'm running a UniFi Dream Machine and a UniFi BeaconHD while I upgrade my network. Works well enough for now.
Planning to build a pfSense/OPNSense router with Wi-Fi 6E APs and run ethernet in my house. That's a ways off, though. Maybe when I pull in more money.
I've got a old AC1900 in access point mode (it's failing tho after 6 years and 5-6 moves) and a cheap $30 Netgear access point from Amazon. Both linked to my.PFSense router. Works phenomenaly
I have an Eero mesh system, and honestly I don't recommend it. It's a little too dumbed down. The mesh functions perfectly, but doing anything beyond basic port forwarding is pretty much impossible.
Yet another Unifi user here. I use a UAP-AC-LR (long range). I have a two story house so I mounted it in the stairway landing wall. It covers the house pretty well.
I have two Huawei AX3 Pro Wifi6 routers (Chinese versions, since they have a much larger range due to extra amplifiers on one of the bands) which are connected together via a devolo homeplug system. I consider it pretty cheap and janky, but practically it works really well. Range is excellent and roaming between both routers is seamless. My only complaint is that you only get 3 free ethernet ports as one is needed for WAN/uplink, also you need to use Google translate to configure it as there is no English language option!
