Linksys

Easy to use and to see what’s on the network

Setting up Velop mesh router is buggy with circular instructions. They don't tell you what indicator colors mean until after you've completed setup. Turns out, my setup was complete but the app kept asking me to finish setup. And, speed test crashes every time. Had higher hopes.

Fast and easy set up works great!

Devices are constantly mislabeled as other devices… it’s a mess. It also freezes 1/3 times I use it.

I recently upgraded to 4 MBE-7000 nodes which are WiFi-7. The app makes the setup and management incredibly easy and only takes a few minutes. No matter where I am in my home it’s like having a wired Ethernet connection ( fast and reliable ). The auto channel scanner is also helpful to avoid congestion with neighbors network. :)

You can’t change the device icon within the app. Unreliable online/offline device list. Would not buy anything from them again.

It takes time to set up multiple nodes, and something it fails. Then you have to start it over.

The Linksys mesh wifi works like a charm. Unfortunately, the mobile app is painful to use. It hangs frequently, and often it takes many attempts to change configuration settings.

I have NEVER experienced an app with so many bugs. Disappointing.

I spent a whole day trying to setup a router in AP mode and the app was so buggy I had to give up. No keyboard when asked to create a WiFi password. Having to wait through “looking for internet” when you know it won’t find it (because I want to create an AP not a router) random pages not displaying properly. It was a mess. Returned and got a Netgear, setup was much easier.
