Pros

Wyze's mesh network offers lightning-fast connectivity for multiple devices. The router supports wired backhaul and features 1x1 gbps and 2x1gbps ports. The wyze mesh network is available on amazon. Com for $99. For more information, visit wyze. Ether...  Read More

Wyze specializes in affordable versions of common home automation staples. This mesh router works great and easy to setup, but they run really hot.

The wyze mesh router performs as i'd expect. The upgrade is vital for it to work with spectrum. Otherwise, the router just works as i would expect. It's definitely still a work in progress that can be improved with software and firmware updates.

The speeds are as high as my isp advertises. I am impressed that a wireless router these days with the supporting device can get almost a gigabit speed. The fast and reliable wi-fi allows me to connect over 20+ devices without any lag or buffering.

This mesh system covers my whole residence. I have continuous coverage throughout my 2 story home, which has primarily thick plaster walls.

I generally like the robust configurability of openwrt; it’s just that this version has been reduced to non-functionality. Web interface lacks the most basic of features.

The items shipped with the older software, which struggled with spectrum.

Packaging/appearance


The unit comes well-packaged with the mesh router, ethernet cable, power cable, and some documentation.

The app prompted me to take the next box to the area it was to be placed & plug it into power.

Competitiveness


The wyze routers work well and are definitely faster than my older ac1200 & n600 routers, although the coverage distance is the...  Read More
