Reviews around hub (5.00 of 5)

  • i was able to connect both of my samsung smart tvs to the smart hub as well as my video door bell, and lighting controls
  • With this smart thing hub, I am also thinking to build and connect more smart home devices with it.
  • I've had the smart hub for a while, and it's been a failure
  • It connected in seconds.-CONNECT TO THE CORRECT NETWORKThe hub is actually a router, so if you already have a router and you connect the hub to your modem, you now have two routers
  • I went to Best Buy and bought the Smart Thing hub and the above devices connected easily

Reviews around coverage (5.00 of 5)

  • This definitely have much better coverage, bigger signal strength and faster speed
  • In terms of pure uniform high speed coverage, no mesh network I have used came close.
  • This was my first foray into "mesh" type wifi networking, and I've been thinking about switching over for some time because our house, while relatively small, is a tricky configuration to get good coverage
  • I have used many types of router devices in my home to improve wifi coverage
  • I was very impressed with the ease of set-up and now have great coverage for all those IoT items I have been placing all around my home

Reviews around product (5.00 of 5)

  • The other issue is that there are sensor vendors claiming they work with SmartThings but maybe not this product
  • While the solutions are similar this new product should have its own distinct support
  • One of the best products I had purchased on amazon, even when 1 single unit says 1500ft coverage I have perfect signal in a 2000ft home including the basement, no more dead spots, setup was super easy, internet speed increased from what it was with previous router, plume app gives you a lot of options to customize the settings of this device.
  • I just moved to a new place and was looking for a router and smart home hub products
  • Long story short, after doing some research, I realized this is a perfect product for my smart home, some of them are using wifi technology and some of them are based on zigbee.

Reviews around system (5.00 of 5)

  • If the caveats above are acceptable to you, I highly recommend this system.
  • We thought getting an extender for expanding coverage but was recommended this mesh system instead
  • I do think this system is faster, but just not reliable enough in my particular home perhaps.
  • I get that most professional Security companies would be reluctant to support a system that they did not set up
  • It performs well as a basic mesh wifi system, so long as you don't mind being forced to use two different smartphone apps for its administration.

Reviews around network (5.00 of 5)

  • It's a very nice kit, easy to use, and good network reliability.
  • this is a huge upgrade for anyone with smart devices in their home or just want a overall better home network. if you are on the fence about this purchase dont be you will not be disappointed
  • Been looking for a solid solution for wifi in the whole house since I work from home and didn't want to have different network names like a WiFi extender does
  • these mesh network devices create a seamless wifi network in your home or office that is all the same, the devices see it as the main network not an extender
  • For an old networking dog like me, the highly automated nature of the SmartThings WiFi installation -- as well as the fact that a smart phone is absolutely required for setup (as noted in fine print on the box -- was slightly jarring

Reviews around solution (5.00 of 5)

  • , then this would be a perfect solution for most medium to larger sized homes
  • Been looking for a solid solution for wifi in the whole house since I work from home and didn't want to have different network names like a WiFi extender does
  • If you want to set up a basic mesh network but don't have ANY networking skills whatsoever, I think this solution can work very well for you.
  • but if you are not tech savvy and are sick of your slow and annoying home wifi this is the best solution for you!

Reviews around setup (5.00 of 5)

  • This router seems not for a power user who likes to change network settings, does not support vpn, dmz, twin up or others, but this support tons of smart home devices and automations as smart home feature, thus if you want a mesh wifi system with easy setup and smart home then this is an absolute choice.
  • One of the best products I had purchased on amazon, even when 1 single unit says 1500ft coverage I have perfect signal in a 2000ft home including the basement, no more dead spots, setup was super easy, internet speed increased from what it was with previous router, plume app gives you a lot of options to customize the settings of this device.
  • The setup was easy and pretty fast, and the connection speed and coverage are
  • Once I figured out which one to use, setup was so easy that I think my mother could have done it, and she doesn't even have an email account.

Reviews around wifi (4.21 of 5)

  • these mesh network devices create a seamless wifi network in your home or office that is all the same, the devices see it as the main network not an extender
  • It performs well as a basic mesh wifi system, so long as you don't mind being forced to use two different smartphone apps for its administration.
  • I live in a duplex apartment (1600 square ft.) and for a good solid WiFi covarage I’ve been using 1 Apple Extreme and 2 Apple Express units since 3 years
  • WiFi also works well for all my devices including my Pixel 2 XL smartphone and iPad.
  • and so the reason for switching to Samsung’s mesh solutions was mainly because of the SmartThings hub (which I planned to add anyhow) plus the fact that the Apple Express units lack WiFi AC support and limited to 100Mbps Ethernet

Reviews around signal (4.16 of 5)

  • However, we didn't get strong signal across the whole house
  • THE SWEET SPOTI had to move my extra hubs (not the main one connected to my modem) to find the spots where they are able to get a good signal from the main hub
  • One of the best products I had purchased on amazon, even when 1 single unit says 1500ft coverage I have perfect signal in a 2000ft home including the basement, no more dead spots, setup was super easy, internet speed increased from what it was with previous router, plume app gives you a lot of options to customize the settings of this device.

Reviews around app (4.16 of 5)

  • Last, the app refused to work without location settings on and the VPN off.
  • Plug it into ethernet, download the smart things app, and all you have left is to connect your devices.
  • I continously use the smart things app and the plume app to monitor the speeds
  • From a setup perspective, the process was very simple-- using an app on the smart phone-- and very easy to follow questions to choose your WIFI name and choose a password-- easier than a lot of others I've experienced

Reviews around performance (4.07 of 5)

  • They said that SmartThings wifi learns Wi-Fi needs and optimizes bands and channels for the best Wifi performance
  • I installed the system with the full expectation of reverting back to my AEBS after a bit of testing, but the performance is good enough (actually much better in some parts of the house, a bit worse in others) that I am going to leave it in place and then fiddle with some SmartThings devices, after which time I will post an updated review.

  • Performance-wise, so far I am seeing very similar performance to what I was seeing with my Airport Extreme Base station system.

Reviews around zone (1.00 of 5)

  • Once I had it hooked up, I checked my Internet speeds, especially in the dead zone rooms
  • We have a new L-shaped house that has dead zones in the top of the L and the bottom of the L, so I put the main hub in the middle of the
  • I'm happy to report this mesh network replaced the router and repeater with much smaller devices and we are now consistently seeing speeds 3 to 4 times as fast throughout the house and have no more dead zones.
