What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Set up was a breeze, thanks to its user-friendly interface. Easy to install as all three units the same and already linked - simply the first one you setup becomes the master. Not overly sized either, so they're not an eyesore in the room.
Nodes, 3 plugs, 1 gigabit ethernet cable and instructions. All three link in mesh network with same ssid and iphone seamlessly hands over from one to the next. Fixed tvs get better connections as i have sited the mesh units to “go around” the big bric... Read More
Mesh wifi system offers blazing-fast speeds and supports up to 200 devices. The hubs are a great size, easy to set up and are so lightweight. Thanks to design they blends nicely and looks like accessory rather than bulky piece of tech.
The tenda app is used for setup and afterwards can show which devices are connected to which node. The app is easy to navigate and use. App really helps choose the best locations for the mesh routers (these require mains plug) but do look unassuming a... Read More
Each node has lan and lan and wan/lan ports. Plugged in the other 2 nodes or whatever there called and reconnected in less than a minute each. Works brilliantly with the requisite single unit wired to the router and two remote units.
Cons
Linksys velop has terrible wifi speeds. I have a * super hub 3 with 200mbps and the speeds once i'd setup the mw5g were mostly half that.
Wi-fi keeps dropping out. Fails to update firmware and constantly disconnecting from network. After setting this mesh system and changing subnet to the same as my previous one i find that i couldn't set any fixed addresses.
Highlights
Quality
I’m pleased with how strong, sturdy and durable the kit is and that it comes with an app for my phone.
Mesh wifi systema fantastic, modern wifi system, built to help provide high speed wifi service, throughout larger homes.
It detects the internet connection, goes through the motions but then says “failed to save” and refuses to complete the set-up.
The tenda mesh gave a solid performance in this respect for about 6 months, before suddenly deciding that only the primary node would work.
Price
A pack of three at such a competitive price is not to be missed.
For the price i highly recommend this, it is extremely user friendly and a breeze to setup, most importantly it just works!
I paid £50 each for same product a year or so ago.
Price is normally good for this performance too.
Shipping
This kit arrived and within minutes it was set up an working.
The new kit duly arrived and setup was completed in about 25 minutes.
Packaging/appearance
Great product comes in premium packaging but to be honest it is a premium pricetag for the ax5400 set with 3 units in the packa... Read More
The system arrived in a rather large box which contained 3 units of the wifi 6 mesh ax5400, 3 units of 12-12.
Competitiveness
Units comparing to my wifi pods from virgin media are big but thanks to design they blends nicely and looks like accessory rath... Read More
The average square footage of a house in britain is 700, so this tenda kit can cover an area more than ten times that size - id... Read More
But the reality is that a competitor’s cheaper mesh system is just as limited by the same setup.
I tried different ethernet ports both on the virgin hub and the nova, same result.

The signals pass through floors better than through walls apparently

This kit consists of three nodes one of which you set up as the primary node and then link the other two to it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The nodes are considerably larger than the nodes on my previous mesh system i suspect this is a consequence of the greater coverage on offer
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Unfortunately in my original kit one node refused to do anything and i had to send the kit back for a replacement

Even before we got any wifi 6 devices we were already seeing data speeds that were more than 5 times faster than the previous system
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
On my previous system from a competitor to tenda i would quite often find that one of the nodes had stopped working though often fairly easily repaired with a reboot
