I think you are the best at these reviews by far! Thank you!

Thank you for the excellent review. I was tossing up between the eero and google nest. I had not considered the tp-link until I watched this video review. Based on my use case the tp-link will actually be better for me so have now purchased the XE75 3-pack. I am so glad I came across your video.

I love what you do for all of us in testing all of these devices. I do however wish you would test them using 2.4 and 5ghz devices. Many of us have smart home devices that still run on 2.4.

I bought the x75 based on a few reviews and I was initially impressed. But then the issues began surfacing and now matter how much I wanted to like and keep it, I returned it after 10 days. The speeds were very good for web browsing and downloads and the app is actually OK. My first problem surfaced when my smart things devices would not connect. I disabled some options like seamless, beam, etc and tried various bands with no luck. I was willing to let this pass and just leave an old router online to support the smart things devices until a bigger problem came up. The speed between the access points is completely unacceptable. A did multiple small test backups between 5-10 gig from my PC to a NAS and it took over an hour... and yes the access point at the NAS could consistently got 800+ mbs to the internet across the mesh. This same backup took about 3-4 minutes using my old Google mesh setup -- no matter what changes I made, I couldn't get the backup to go in less than an hour. After some googling about the issue it appears to be quite common. Knowing this I was forced to return it. I really did like it, but the performance between access points needs a lot of work. Maybe I'll try tp link again when wifi 7 comes out.

I just bought the TP-Link Deco XE75 and it's working out great. I had Deco S4 previously. For comparison, my old speeds were 125-250 Mbps throughout the house. Now, it's 250-500 Mbps, basically double. Range seems better, zero dead spots. I debated with Eero, but since my previous Deco was fairly solid, ended up staying with TP-Link.

Eero subscription is my biggest gripe against them

TY, finally found what I was looking for: @13:16 "If your used to Asus or something like that...none of these..." stops video. I know this video is a year old, so I'm late to the party. But, if I'm looking for a 6e router is 2024, what manufacture provides simple options like independent network band passkeys (security certificates) and/or hiding the SSID? Access control? Blocking new device connection? Time to buy an updated Netgear?

I opted for the Nest Wifi Pro because the parental control is included (no subscription). Also I have it configured with wired backhaul. I've had it for about a month now and I'm really happy

I bought the Nest WiFi Pro and the Deco. I returned the Nest because, same as your review, the speeds in wireless backhaul are not even close. 800-900Mbps on the Deco using 6Ghz band exclusively for backhaul and 300-400Mbps on the Nest Pro. The latency was much worse on the Nest as well. Only thing that the Google Home app has that Deco is missing is testing the speed coming from your modem. Deco has this generic speed test on the phone that's useless to me as you can use any website or app for that.

Eero has parental control, I have been using one for the last couple of years. You can create profile for each users like your kids then tailor it to each individual.

Excellent video. Love the explanation, really helped me. Thank you!

I got the eero pro and had problems with devices going offline so I went and got the nest pro 6e and it’s rock solid, no issues or devices going offline and the speeds are fast 💨 the nest pro 6e is a great value especially if you have other google products like me. Very easy to setup and the app features are great.

TP Link Pro being returned. Originally liked the speeds and range, but my devices are constantly dropping the internet. Getting a lot of “unstable internet connection” errors on zoom video. Only have a modem connected to them. Tried changing a bunch of settings to no avail ☹️

Great video! Did you test the Google WiFi Pro with the recent new firmware update that is meant to have fixed a lot of issues?

really good reviews, thanks you have helped me choose a new Mesh system.

My deco only came with 2 ethernet io, I used a splitter/switch and from there created a wired backhaul.

Thank you for this video

The Orbi AXE11000 WiFi 6E Mesh System still reigns above all WiFi home mesh systems currently in my opinion

Wait do all of them require subscription?

If you were to get the Eero at half off let's say, a price far better than the Nest or Deco - would you still go for a TPLink? Btw.. thank you for your detailed explanation, it's been a while I haven't revamped my home network (10 yrs) and I am way over due, so I am little rusted on all the current WiFi technologies, thank you again!

I went with the Google Nest Pro and it works great connected to my Starlink Internet where top speeds at this time are a little under 300 down.

There's wifi 7 announced now for next year

Incredibly helpful comparison!

14:46 Sounds good! Just purchased the Deco from Amazon for around $233, upgrading an older Asus AC1700 of over 10 years+ Thanks for explaining wired / wireless backhaul this is all new to me. But since I already have a 25ft cable running from my modem to my old router. Ill change it up and use the first router connected to the modem at 3ft and then connect my other node via wired since the cable is already there. That way the two computers I have in the office will get wired connection and fastest speeds.

Just installed the Google wifi pro, very easy , only took a half hour to get all 3 running. Signals are strong and faster than the spectrum one we had.

What's funny is at the prices these are going for, there are some amazing PoE WAP's available, personally prefer a dedicated router and dedicated WAP's as they tend to preform much better but that also comes from me installing them day in and day out..... That said the TP-Link is the way to go if your going this route, especially if you want to be able to expand further down the line the deco don't have a limit on Ethernet connected nodes (the other two might be able to as well but I write them off automatically because I value some data privacy).

I have the XE75…. How do you turn on or verify the 6Mhz backhaul? Thanks. 🥳

Okay so I'm a little confused on this wired backhaul thing. I'm buying a new house and it's a 2 story. The main part where the wifi will be is downstairs but I have an ethernet port in my room upstairs. Does that count as wired backhaul If I plug the second mesh to that? Is that basically the same as running a cord without actually running the line.

If you call Eero customer service, they actually don’t recommend wired backhaul and believe there is no performance difference. Their CS is only set up to make sure your mesh is working. They could care less about network optimization

Great review wish I came across this a week ago just wondering does Eero combine all 3 bands into one ssid like Nest pro or has separate 6ghz like Deco?

Thank you for the excellent video. Here’s a question for you: I’ve got an external office, and going out to a ‘she shed’. I’m presuming with how high frequency 6ghz is, it would make for pretty crap wireless backhaul penetration (especially going through external walls and a brick structure. Did you notice any of them performing better than any others in penetration tests?

If the mesh (not the main one) is wireless connected to the main one, and a device is connected by wire to the wireless connected mesh, will this increase the speed to the device compared to if the device is wireless connected to the same mesh router?

Bought TP-Link deco, set it up, liked it, then packed it up.. as I am told of security issue with it.

Would be interested to know what is your actual test environment when you test the wireless back haul. If you are placing the ap within line of sight the result would not reflect real world use. Even with 5ghz across the room, the speed drops to 100-200 mbs. I find it hard to believe at 6ghz back haul in real world condition you can get close to gigabit performance. Most people would use this on different floors.

Now that Deco has a pro version with 2.5Gbps port, it's an even clearer winner, right?

I wonder if the Nest Pros would have benefited by being more the size of the nest audio. I feel like Google compromised on the internal antenna design/size but trying to focus more on aesthetics.

Hi a question please. Do you need to go directly from one device to the another device if you want a wired backhaul or you can go thru a switch?

You did not mention if the eero and Nest can be configured to use the 6ghz as dedicated wireless backhaul.

Can eero app force wireless backhaul on 6G band?

With Prime Day coming up, the Eero 6E 3-pack is $475cad. The TP Link Deco XE75 3 pack is $600cad. I would mostly be using wireless backhaul. With the firmware update to the Eero 6E, would this be the better option for the price?

Would you be able to do a review and test on the new deco PX50 with Ghn power line and how it compares to its older brother the P9?

Best comparison done ✅

would love to see a comparison to eg the Deco X90 or new x95 eg as they are also try-band but not 6ghz hence the wireless backhaul would be on the 5ghz I assume and if that limits the overall speed compared to 6gz backhaul. most people have 2.4 and 5ghz devices with 6e being still rather a novelty and the speed usually depends on the slowest device ( a wee bit at least)

Which one of these mesh allows you to name 2.4 and 5.0 with different names? The reason is when you buy one of those light bulbs or outlets that only work on 2.4 it's easier to pick the 2.4 by name to connect. If both are named, the same router will try to make it connect to 5.0 which will not work. I know some routes let you use different names, and some don't. Do you have a list of which router or mesh system lets your name each 2.4 and 5.0 different. I know my EA9500 linksys does but the guest network no longer works so look for new router or mesh. I want one that guest network works and can name different 2.4 and 5.0. Thanks for anyone help.

A little confused. I just bought one of these. Do I need 2? I use a laptop and a voip (dialpad) The reason I'm getting this is because my Google Pixel 7 pro can't keep a stable connection to my spectrum Wi-Fi.

Informative !!!

Which is best from these 3 planning to upgrade my 1st Gen googles

Great video

Had the XE75 Pro 3 pack in the UK to go with my 900/900 near gigabit line . Upgraded from a 3 Pack M9 Deco. Positives for the XE75 Pro was slightly better range that the M9s ( all units in same place ) dont have 6e devices so on 6Htz backhaul and on AX210 Intel wifi on laptop fastest wifi speed was about 800mbs ( Main unit ). But found the system buggy, got hit by DFS radar strikes alot ( 160htz band ) so kept knocking the satellite's out. Basically hardware good but firmware support is terrible. TP link have a single person on firmware who only works Tuesdays for the whole world 😥, Very Very slow firmware updates. Returned to Amazon and went back to my Deco M9 plus, not fully using my my gigabit currently but more stable which is more important. Waiting to see if the firmware improves before rebuying either XE75 or XE75 Pro later.

I have a 2400 sqft townhouse, it's 3 floors all above ground. Do you think 2 of the deco xe75 will work, or do I need to go for a 3 pack?

Are there privacy issues with the TP Link devices?

Can you hook them up with Ethernet backhaul but without daisy chaining them? I want all of them to be hooked up directly to my switch and act as accesspoints

Thanks for convincing me to buy the Deco XE75

I have Google nest 1st Gen paying for 1,000mbps att fiber, and now they pick up 175 mbps on Speedtest

Exactly the video I have been waiting for. Thanks! I am invested in the Google nest and Amazon Ring ecosystem and want the matter hub to connect my google nest and Amazon RING devices via a single app (Apple Home Kit or Google Home) so the Google wifi 6E seems to be a good choice but there are other better choices for a matter hub i.e Google Nest Hub Max which I own. Google will also update matter on all their devices via a firmware update this year. My question is should I go for Wifi 6E or waite a few months and go for Wifi 7 which will be announced at CES in January. Deco has already announced their Wifi 7 router. I want to get something that I dont have to upgrade in the next 5 years.

Just the review I was looking for, bcos I have XE-75 and just wanted to know if the Google Nest was better. But I concur with you, the XE-75 is better with more Lan ports... but, in my experience, the Deco mesh with a default "channel width for wifi 5Ghz at 160Mhz" will not work with Samsung Wi-Fi 5 compatible devices: except the width channel is changed in the Deco App to 80Mhz channel. (Not sure if Samsung S23 and above can at 160Mhz)

Both the Nest WiFi Pro and the Eero Pro have Thread baked into them. I don't think the TP-Link does. That's a consideration for us Smart Home aficionados...

Good analysis, but I strongly disagree with range estimates here because when speed falls down to single digits, wifi is useful for email only. You should not consider any distance where speed goes below 25 Mbps both up/down. That is a safe speed to avoid buffering when streaming or Zoom / MS Teams meetings. Walls, big mirrors, plumbing, and other obstructions can significantly reduce range. Your ISP speed may vary greatly at different times of the day. This is our experience from installing over 5000 WiFi routers / APs in condominiums and HOAs.

I think the biggest piece missing in landpet review is the speed test on main router vs satellite routers. You have a sort of speed test with a range but that doesn't tell you if was per router or on 1 or 2 satellites. Also, would like to see how the mesh configuration affects the speed from each satellite connecting to main router vs daisy chaining routers. I think some brands do it one way over other.

would u still suggest these? ive tried eero and decos.. decos seem better.. but do u think the asus mesh is better?

I have the xe75s now and the speed is great but they drop devices like crazy and TP-Link has been 0 help with getting it working. Im going to be switching to the nest wifi pros and those out.

I hope you could help me solve my problem with my Google Nest Wifi pro. well the mesh is working great but my 2nd node that I put in the master bedroom is keep loosing the connection of the wifi even though that the node is not getting offline

Why your internet speed showed 1547 for a single router when your mentioned your top speed is 1gig?

You should have used the Deco XE75 Pro in the comparison.

Question when hooking up a wifi mesh to my modem do I need to turn off dhcp on my modem?

I have the netgear Orbi RBK50(WiFi 5) would the defo be an upgrade on that?

I've read horror stories about the Deco networking going completely down if the internet goes off-line. Have you heard of this or experienced this?

Which is better the xe75 or 75 pro

I'm so confused has to what to get I'm think eero mesh money no issue i don't want a orbi had bad experience with orbis

I bought nest pro, super buggy, could not get IPV6 to work at all. Very unstable, points kept dropping off network even with wired backhaul. Returned and got Eero6e. So much better. IPv6 immediately worked. Ultra stable. Lower latency, faster speeds, no drops.

can we mix them?

would something like this work with a network of 15 mbs ??

If you want stable connection! where you forget about wifi! go with google! nest ! if you want headache: go with Eero

No idea how you were able to connect a wifi 6 device to the wifi 6 band on the Wifi Nest Pro. I set up a 3pk over the weekend and could only get my wifi 6 device to connect on the wifi 4 protocol. Numerous people having this issue. It's shame because there are things I loved about the router but it's packed up and being shipped back. Amplifi Alien back up and running yet again.

I do not trust TP link. had a gaming router. which worked really well until it stopped working out of the blue TP link will not replace it due to four years old.

can the eero wired backhaul through a switch?

Hi, the promocode is not working

The Deco Pro has the 2.5gb port

tried the deco pro and returned it, decent coverage, great speed but horrible uptime(many drops)

Subscription for service is a non starter for me.

On my experience, google Wi-Fi more than four year is the best

Why do you guys that make all the comparisons of these systems never check the number of devices that connect to the mesh system, I have somewhere around 30 devices, and with my Tplink systems X60 (old network) and AX5300 (Old Network), my 2.4 Gh devices would drop, I worked with TpLink tech support for about a month and found out that they lie about the number of devices that can be connected to there mesh system They created on both of my systems a separate software from what comes with the routers and I still had issues, so I am now trying the Google Nest wifi Pro and so far not impressed.

my home is 10.000 ft2 with 2 story. which is one the best for me?

I think I know you from CSUN

My experience with Google products esp their speaker has been terrible. I switched to the Nest WiFi Pro Mesh a month ago. Unfortunately, the switch did little to help. More over, Google's support was terrible. I'd stay away from all of their products because of their support.

I think overall the Google Nest is the optimal choice.

I'm disappointed in Google... This is what they came up with after 2yrs of waiting for a wifi6 mesh? Lol a company as big as Google... Here we thought their wifi 6 is going to be close to Netgear.

They advertising it like "wireless" but you have to do wires to connect it .

Any grown man who asks me to smash his like button immediately gets a downvote for me. 😐

Google nest is garbage no customization and nothing at 2.4 works with it. I took it back to Costco and got the deco and I am super happy….

It’s too bad that you substitute the names of the products with the word “this” about 100 times. Because as you’re blazing through the differences in each product, you are using the pronoun “this”…So I don’t know what the heck you’re talking about unless I am watching your hands to see which product you’re describing. And they are all three small white objects.

LOL SMASH LOL

lol over peeps who think they need more than 1gig..

not having luck with any of these systems. Tried all three in my home but the walls are too thick for wifi to even broadcast outside and I can't get a constant mesh. Is it possible to use 3 Asus routers, use one as the main routers and run hardlines FROM the main router to the other 2 routers at opposite ends of the home? And can I assign the same wifi network to each? Thanks for your vids and your opinion
