What is Mesh Wi-Fi?
The mesh wifi technology system is built to eliminate dead zones and creates one big connection that covers all corners of your home. The Mesh WiFi system creates faster speeds and a more stable connection. It allows for better performance and less network congestion providing you with better reliability and greater wireless coverage.
How does the TP-Link Deco Mesh Wi-Fi system work?
The mesh wi-fi system consists of a main router that connects directly to your router and a series of nodes (a device or data point in a larger network) placed around your home for full wi-fi coverage. Only one node needs to be connected to the router, the one wired node then shares its internet connection with all other nodes in its vicinity. They are all part of a single wireless network that requires multiple devices to be set up around your home where you require the connection.

Questions you may have before purchasing the TP-Link Deco Mesh
Do I need to purchase a new router?
You can use the TP-link extender in tandem with your current router, you don't need to purchase a new router.

So even though the mesh systems will replace the router part, you still need to reply on the built in router.
Will a Mesh Wi-Fi network improve internet speed?
With Mesh wi-fi nodes positioned throughout your home, you get a much more consistent, even speed wherever you go in your home. Because there are multiple access points your going to get a more consistent signal spread across your home.
How far can Mesh Wi-Fi extend?
A good rule of thumb is to place the second node halfway between the router and the dead zone, the range can be about 30 meters or two rooms apart.
Does Mesh Wi-Fi need a line of sight?
No. Nodes can be placed anywhere within range of each other to create a mesh network in your home. While a line of sight is optimal to reduce the chance of any interference between nodes, it is not a requirement.
How do I know which TP-Link I should purchase?
The E4 Deco mesh is best suitable for fibre line speeds of up to 100Mbps. The Deco M4 is best suitable for line speeds of up to 1Gbps, the hardware mostly depends on your current fibre line speed for optimal use of the product.
