Damn, I paid the full price and it was worth every penny. Only thing I don't like about this system is it won't let me throttle certain devices. Even though I was able to set up high priority devices I still get latency issues / high ping when I game on the high priority device while other devices are using bandwidth such as streaming at the same time. So if you value that try to go with something else.

How does this compare to the EAP245? I'm actually quite underwhelmed with that model in terms of signal performance.

looks like they are lowering all these older gen mesh wifi units before the new release of the new wifi6 compatible mesh systems.

TP Link Wifi 6 Mesh systems have been out for a while now. Which models are you talking about?

I just picked up the Tplink M9 plus 2pk from amazon....huge help with the wifi in our house.

Used to get dead spots near the front and back and now all good.

Was hoping to get a 3pk just to make sure good coverage on the main floor but hard to find the 3pk...

I wanted Triband, otherwise would have picked up this set!

Good price, highly recommend the 3pk for 3500+ sq ft homes!

I've had the M5 for about a year now and its been great. I just have Fido 150m and I'm able to get full bars all over my house (4,000 sq feet) where I struggled before with a lot of dead spots.

Literally just bought the 2 pack yesterday for 167. Looking to add it to my x60 mesh network to fill in some slow spots far from the nodes.
Great deal OP. Thank you!

Up and Atom!!!
If my thread or post was helpful, a "thank you" is always nice.

The E4 has a 100Mbit WAN port from the looks of it.
So if you internet connection is faster than 100Mbs, it's garbage.

I actually don't have EPP, so I just assumed it would be cheaper. My bad!
