Linksys Velop WHW0301 Tri-Band Whole Home Mesh WiFi 5 System (AC2200) WiFi Router, Extender & Booster up to 2000 sq ft Coverage for 20+ Devices with 2 Gigabit Ethernet Ports, MU-MIMO - 1 Pack, White

Product Information

The top and two of the four sides are punctured with hundreds of small holes for heat dissipation, and there’s a small plastic clip for cable management at the bottom, for the ports which are located in a recessed section directly underneath. We tested Velop by running Speedtest.net across three rooms in an average sized home, first at short range, in the same room as a single node, which was used in the same way as any other router, connected directly to the modem.

For comparison, I set up the three Linksys nodes in the same way as I did the BT system, hooking up the primary node to one of my Sky Q Hub’s two Gigabit Ethernet ports. Setup took around half-an-hour, and once I’d finished I ran a signal strength survey and two throughput tests to test speed and range around the house.

Then we plugged in a second Velop node in a downstairs hallway, right between the first node and our test laptop and measured speeds again. EU RESIDENTS.

Wireless Connectivity: IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, AC2200 2x2 Wi-Fi (expandable mesh; dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz, MU-MIMO) On the other hand, the dual-band Velop with three active nodes is better suited to covering somewhere between 4,000 and 4,500 square feet, which is still respectable. If you have a small apartment or condo, the dual-band system is no doubt ideal, though it can also definitely prove its worth in a standard home. Due to the tri-band Velop having twice as many antennas that can utilize beamforming technology to deliver a better signal farther away, you should realistically be able to cover an area somewhere between 5,000 and 6,000 square feet with three nodes. If you're living in a large home with five or more bedrooms, the tri-band Velop might make more sense no matter your basic internet speed.

If your home is already wired with ethernet, you may want to take advantage of these connections to increase the range and speed of your Velop system and reduce wireless interference. It seems you can’t move for whole-home Wi-Fi systems at the moment, with the Linksys Velop following hot on the heels of the Netgear Orbi and BT Whole Home Wi-Fi. Just like its recent forebears, the Velop is a “mesh” Wi-Fi setup designed to extend a blanket of strong wireless coverage across the whole of your home. b) To the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of the Product Terms is not enforceable, the court may modify the provision to the minimum extent necessary to make the provision enforceable.

Flexible and a doddle to set up, but the price is high and overall performance isn’t as good as rival systems

In our throughput tests, however, I found that the Linksys Velop lagged somewhat behind BT Whole Home Wi-Fi. Testing with a 15in MacBook Pro equipped with a 3×3 MIMO stream adapter chip, the Velop averaged 50MB/sec up close, and 27MB/sec in the kitchen, with the laptop sat two metres from the node at the end of the chain.
