Bought this based on other reviewers and I'm certainly not disappointed. I chose tenda because it's half the price of equivalent mesh systems and gets loads of positive reviews. We have a challenging house for WiFi that's long, with brick walls all over it. I really wasn't winning with the router and range extenders solution.
Firstly Set up: as promised by other reviewers, it really is a 20 minute job. Plug the first node into the router with the included Ethernet cable and download the app. Set up is self explanatory and easy. Then, simply plug in the other 2 nodes wherever is convenient in the house and they sort themselves out, appearing green on the diagram on the app within a few minutes.
The outcome: amazing seamless WiFi through the whole house and even garden. I can't believe we didn't do this sooner. If you have any doubts about the price of this mesh compared to others, don't. Just buy it. Works really well, Simple set up. What more is there to want.
Final point: there is the facility for wired "backhaul" with these units. It took me ages on the net to work out what this is. Basically, you set the nodes up wirelessly as above, but then you plug each one on to your router or switch via a single cable going from the tenda "wan port" to the router or switch. Ie 3 cables going though the house. This will speed up the WiFi to blistering rates by carrying back the way traffic from your device to the internet by the Ethernet cable, leaving the wireless channels to carry only outgoing traffic from the internet to your device. You certainly don't need to do this. I haven't, and I'm really happy with the speed. However I now have a project, and am going to run some Ethernet when I get a chance, to improve the system. It's nice to have the option, not all mesh systems have this.
Very happy customer, recommend tenda!
