  r/homeoffice · best mesh wifi system for dealing with dead zones in a concrete house setup? →2026-04-29T08:46:44

  Best is wired APs - nothing beats this. But I'm assuming that's not an option since re-wiring is not something you're keen to explore? If it's your home and budget permits, this is the way. Next option ==> Consumer grade mesh routers. I have 1 in my bedroom in AP mode connected to a UniFi UCG ultra gateway. The other mesh node is in the living room. You can add as many nodes as you want since they just need power and no cabling. TP-Link (though Chinese) is probably your best bet in terms of price and availability. If you're concerned about telemetry etc (Like I am), all my traffic is routed via Pi Hole + comprehensive firewall rules on the gateway. Not all TP-Link mesh routers are the same. Get the newer ones with stronger signals/ gain and try it out. E.g., I have the older models (X20), but they work for me. There are many newer ones including the Omada range. You will need to do some research/ speak to your local micro center/ equivalent.

  r/Zen_Internet · Using TP-Link Deco X10 AX1500 with the fritz!box 7530 ax? →2025-06-18T07:32:40

  Hi. I recently had Zen / City Fibre installed (was with Virgin) and bought a pack of X20s with the intention of replacing the Fritzbox, as well as improving coverage (we had been paying for a Virgin Mesh extender). The X20s work well, but I could get the one I wanted to be the router to connect directly to the internet. I ended up plugging it into the Fritzbox, which is fine, but should be unnecessary. Do you know what the issue might be? Thanks.

  r/HomeNetworking · Greenhorn advice needed, router for 500Mb ONT connection...Wireguard? SQM? What makes sense for my basic needs? →2025-04-17T21:32:36

  Thanks for the input on the SQM. After some more research I'm not certain the issue is really bufferbloat. When running the test on waveform I usually get an A or A+ but randomly will get an F...idk. I'll try to sort out how this might apply to my situation. The VLAN tag is just to get the ISP to ID the signal correctly, their modem has a tag for internet traffic. It's not actually for dedicated ports (I think I'm saying this right...?). I will be trying out my old Deco x20 which supports VLAN only for this specific purpose, so I can at least rule out the ISP supplied router being the issue - but it doesn't support SQM so it might not help.

  r/mauritius · I finally got the TP Link Deco X20 (not X10) from MyT as part of their special smart wifi package for Rs3000 if you have 200Mbps or more internet subscription with them. →2025-03-18T09:20:42

  I tried to let them install myself but they insisted it has to be installed from them. Once they left i had to reconfigure it to my liking. May i ask how much you paid? I got my next bill and it still not on the bill.

  I bought a set of three x20s from MyT but without the subscription but I am quite startled that the installation is limited to something you could do yourself given the monthly fee. I installed mine myself and wired them all with ethernet resulting in a homogeneous bandwidth in any node with no latency impact. Some times back My.T announced FTTR (Fiber to the room) for optical backhaul but it seems to have been abandoned.

  Well considering that at MyT they can get on your router and configure stuff remotely, they can therefore see a list of all my devices connected. I also cannot change the DNS server on the myt router i have but with the deco, I now can.

  r/TpLink · Deco ethernet backhaul megathread →2024-11-14T05:53:30

  Hi, yes this is still working and showing as connected via ethernet backhaul! Only thing I noticed was that when powering on the decos I found it best to have an Ethernet cable already connected instead of connecting it after booting up. Though not sure this is by design or if this was an issue at my old configuration.

  I have it working with DGS 1210-52MP so it \*should\* work with yours too, sfp link is just like any other link. however, the fact that you're using Decos as the router (and I'm assuming the gateway to the internet) potentially complicates things because it is very dumb let alone being able to manage traffic across different VLANs. not sure how you have configured VLAN but the general idea is you should have a dedicated VLAN for ALL the Decos (let's say VLAN 10), and set up the ports you want the Decos to be connected to as Access Ports (as opposed to Trunk Ports). But you're not done yet. 1. Either your router needs to be able to hand out DHCP to all VLANs (IP ranges of different VLANs must be DIFFERENT AND MUST NOT OVERLAP), OR switches can route between VLANs and you configure static routes. Static routing requires IP addresses to be handed out via DHCP to all VLANs otherwise you can't configure the IP address you want routing to occur. However in your situation, this is complicated by a) Deco in Router Mode will NOT manage VLANs, and b) User of DGS-1210 say it can't route properly even though the feature is available 2. The router in your network is configurable to forward traffic from a VLAN destined for a different VLAN. If you don't do this step, VLANs remain insulated as though they are different physical networks and you WILL NOT HAVE INTERNET TO ONE OR MORE VLANs IN YOUR NETWORK. The Deco does NOT do this, and I strongly do not recommend putting them in Router Mode if VLANs are involved. What I suggest is: 1. Put Decos in AP mode 2. Acquire a router capable of VLANs - consumer or commodity (such as an OpenWrt box on a NUC) 3. Set up IP ranges per VLAN (router), inter-VLAN routing (router), VLAN access ports (switch), set the SFP link to trunk all VLANs that are in use (switch)

  Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, so I thought I'd post my experiences here. I have 0 networking knowledge so would appreciate any feedback. Ethernet backhaul not working with D-Link DGS-1210-08P and DGS-1210-10P Using 4x Deco X20 (mix of hardware version 2.0 and 4.0, main Deco is version 2.0, firmware 1.2.4) Deco is set up in router mode. I'm using the above switches between 2 buildings with an SFP link and was hoping to use the same network throughout. I think the switches either don't support IEEE 1905.1 or maybe I haven't set up the switches correctly. As soon as I connect 2 or more decos to either switch I lose internet connection in the Deco app. I tried using just 1 of the switches and testing EB on that but it does the same thing. I also tried setting up a vlan and tagging ports used by the decos but that did not help. My question is, does AP mode use a different protocol for the decos to communicate? If I used a different router and changed to AP mode would this set up work? Or should I consider buying new switches?
