About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
A very good price on the 4 pack, if you're looking for a well priced solution. I think most compare these against the S7, especially as we've seen fair pricing on those recently. That said, the M4s here are a fair bit cheaper with this deal, so they'll likely make sense for a lot of people, that don't need the extra features of the S7.
Here's the comparison list for the two models.

sorted byThey don't work when the Internet is down, so the whole LAN would also go down.
If set to Access Point Mode - in the event of a network outage or power outage, currently they'd come back on still looking to assign IP addresses and would 'fight' with the main router. The only solution is to power down all of the units and main router, then router back on and wait a while before turning the M4s back on.
If you have a power outage wait for the main router to come back on then unplug and plug back in the ethernet cable to the first Deco from your main router and it'll will sort itself out (owner of deco M9s)
One machine connected by ethernet to a second access point in AP mode.
And a Chromebook running Crostini / Linux layer over wireless ac. Using iperf3.
Next to the access point I got close to 400 Mbits/second.
Through a chimney stack in the bathroom next door I got 80 Mbits/second.
Then connecting to the primary AP with the laptop. About 170Mbits/second through one brick wall. The second AP is on the second floor through a wall/floor. So this is using the wireless interconnection between access points.
Which isn't that bad.
I'm not sure if the Linux emulation/VM will be bad on network performance or not, that's all I had at hand.
Of course that's all local traffic. My WAN speed isn't that fast, so haven't been able to really test these.

How do these compare to BT whole home full size disks ..?

If location prevents this, then powerlines would provide a similar effect. If none on these work for your location then it probably not the solution for you.
Still a great product (particularly at this price) for those it works for. (edited)
