Cons

Oh and here's the kicker. This mesh is horrible. Just a completely unusable product. Very frustrating to say the least.

The settings of the router are only controlled by the mobile app. There is a web interface for a browser, but most settings can't be changed with a browser. It has almost no customization. The app and web interface are horrible.

Dropped to my 5g from 160 mhz to 80mhz, turned off fast roaming and beam forming. But after rejoining my network, signal almost immediately cuts out again. Secondary (repeater) unit keeps disconnecting, was only about 20 feet from the main unit.

The deco app is designed with multiple mesh networks - realistically there's only one mesh network that 99. Of the time takes me nowhere. Every 2 to 3 months the deco network i set up is forgotten by the app. They probably use the ip address to rememb...  Read More

I pay for 300mbps download and 20mbps upload from my isp.

Competitiveness

It was better priced than the eero and was easy to setup and use.


Compare and contrast with the asus mesh i tried and despite being technically competent was never able to make work.
