There's an old adage that says "Home is where the Wi-Fi connects automatically" but if your home Wi-Fi network is stretched thin that means you might not actually be home until you're standing right beside your router. A mesh system can be a suitable option for extending your wireless broadband coverage at home. TP-Link has recently announced their latest offering to the mesh networking market: the Deco X55 Pro AX3000 Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 6 system.
An upgrade to the previous Deco X55 system, the Deco X55 Pro can support wireless coverage of up to 6,500 square feet (which TP-Link claims is roughly four to six rooms of coverage) for the 3-pack while the 2-pack can cover roughly 4,500 square feet. If you're not trying to provide wireless coverage to half of your neighborhood, however, you can make do with a 1-pack covering approximately 2,500 square feet.
