and I’m faced with round two of tech support nightmare.
Tech support told me distance between nodes should be no more than 20-25 feet, unless you live in a "perfect" house, that is, no walls, no interference from other electrical devices
I made one call to tech support for a quick answer and was very please with the experience.
I spent over eight hours on the phone with tech support just to get it to work

I have a compact two story house and this product does not cover what it claims to cover.
I may be returningI ordered this for myself & the 2 pack as a house warming gift

If you can run ethernet cables to each node I highly recommend the Ubiquiti UniFi system instead.
An affordable mesh system for basic Internet accounts is a wonderful idea, but it needs to work
Not a bad system
This is in theory a great home wifi system, I tried to implement coming over from a google wifi mesh system and let's just say the Velop is back in the box, the google wifi is back connected
Three stars because it is a decent system, but just that.

The zones between nodes was unreliable, and the coverage wasn't any better than I had before
For the price, I'd rather just buy a single WIFI router.....it would work better and provide more reliable coverage.
Didn't work as they say
I got better coverage from a single standalone top end wifi system.
Secondly, it appeared a mesh system would solve the periodic issues we had, such as getting consistent WiFi coverage in the home and reducing buffering

Now that it's deployed, the Velop system seems to be working great.
Adding different router did work but switching from one to another is not smooth and some device tends to stick to one even though there are much better access point around
So far it has worked great and the lag I was experiencing before was now almost nonexistent and the picture is great.
I reconfigured these to a new space , and they are still working perfect
cheaper.,with that being said this works very well right now

The Linksys is compact enough ( l actually love the size) but so far have been really inconsistent and within 15 minutes started losing the signal and then reconnecting
Fortunately it was not as bad as I

Three:-only the Linksys Velop-node 1 in middle of house-node 2 on outside wall closest to garageeverything wirelessMy preferred setup is one-only the Netgear R6700
The only negative was the setup
I don't mind less user-friendly setup through the web browser and wired connection on the Netgear
Setup of the first node was dead
Setup was fairly easy but finding a place for the second unit was difficult

We have gigabit fiber to our home, so this definitely was WiFi-limited, not internet-limited, and suggests the eero is doing a better job using wireless backhaul
This has definitely boosted the wifi so that it works better in the
Another benefit of going with a mesh system was no longer having to differentiate between bands when adding new WiFi compatible goods

Attractive and easy to set up, I was disappointed when my Ring doorbell (about 25 feet away from the main node) complained of poor signal strength
I reinstalled my old system and once again we have a strong signal
I installed a three piece system and added two more units to get as strong a signal as possible to my master bedroom where I do most of my 4K movie watching via Apple TV.
In my 3300 sq ft house I needed 5 of them to give all my devices a good strong signal.

It doesn’t work as it should, it’s essentially engineering beta level product and not ready for actual usage
An affordable mesh system for basic Internet accounts is a wonderful idea, but it needs to work
I also found it’s a good idea to have each note plugged into a battery back up so that if you lose power they will continue to work as long as your modem has an Internet connection as well
In the end, everything worked as it should and the support folks were helpful.

Summarized result: all dead zones within the 1600 square foot (ranch-style) home were eliminated
Some outdoor locations where I would like to also have a signal still have dead zones, pending additional tests over the coming days
The zones between nodes was unreliable, and the coverage wasn't any better than I had before
