If you are still using the "classic" blue and black router you bought 20 years ago, the ultra-low list price of this three-pack TP-Link Mesh Wi-Fi system of $110 may finally convince you to charge your Wi-Fi. Philippines. This is an incredibly good price for a mesh router with three units-this particular system is worth the price even at the usual $150. Paying only $110 on Black Friday is crazy.

You will get three TP-Link Deco Mesh S4 routers in this package. Unlike the trendy old routers, which work well when you are in the room but terrible when you are in the garage or backyard, the mesh system allows you to share the signal at home. Even better, unlike your friend’s cheap Wi-Fi repeater system, it requires multiple fashionable network names, such as JEFFREYS_WIFI_REPEATER_5GHZ. The mesh system allows you to roam the house while maintaining a single signal.

With a mesh Wi-Fi system, you can set up a unit near the modem, plug the second unit into the living room, and then place the third unit in the room upstairs for maximum coverage. According to TP-Link, the kit can well cover a typical house with an area of ​​5,500 square feet.

Deco Mesh is a dual-band system, which means that some of the bandwidth between the units is used as a "backhaul" connection, but since each unit has two Gigabit Ethernet ports, you can operate between all three ports Wired connection is regarded as "wired backhaul." This is obviously easier for people whose homes are pre-connected to Ethernet (as is the case in many modern homes), but by running wired backhaul, it is much more expensive than running wireless backhaul mode. Compared with the frequency system, you can basically get the same or even better performance. However, if your main concern is to send the signal to your garage in a reliable way, then running a standard wireless mesh network mode should be fine—better than that ancient standalone router you might rent from an Internet provider Much.

Our last suggestion is why replace that bad old router even if it means buying a new system? If you pay your ISP for faster Internet bandwidth, but cannot use it in most places in your home, then you are paying for unused services. It is worthwhile to invest in a solid network backbone for your home-especially in this Black Friday transaction price.
