Huawei WIFI Mesh 7, AX6600 Whole Home Coverage, wifi 6, tri band £218.49 with code @ Huawei


About this deal
I've been looking for a WIFI 6 Tri-band mesh system without breaking the bank and this came up; I already have 3x Huawei AX3000 wifi plus units and hoping this will provide better backhaul between the main unit in my annex and the rest of the house (can't lay cat7 outdoor).

sorted byThe good thing with these is that the wireless backhaul is then over all 3 bands (2.4Ghz, 5Ghz(1) and 5Ghz(2)). So between my 2 nodes, my connection is normally around the 700-800mb can be lower into 600s but seen it go over 1000mb. All my games consoles are connected via ethernet so I max out my 500mb connection fully. Even using my laptop on wireless in the same room maxes out the connection and I get the same results from the 2nd node like the main 1.
1 thing I have had to do and thats more down to our phones was to separate out the Wifi bands into different networks as our Samsung A53s would have issues when it was between 2 nodes at certain points (It couldnt decide which to connect to and would be in an endless connect disconnect loop). No other devices had this. But what its allowed me to do is then use the 2.4Ghz band for low end devices like security cams, heating, nests etc and then use everything else on 5Ghz(1) as that has a maximum of 1200mb, then I leave 5Ghz(2) completely free for the backhaul as I don't want to interfere with the backhaul capability, as that alone provides over 500mb connection between the nodes by itself for the majority of the time. So while separating the bands seems like a pain as I now have 3 Wifi Network names, I do like the ability to choose what devices connect to what network.
They also have 4x 1Gb Ethernet ports so plenty to plug devices into, got all 4 used on the 2nd Node and then 1 spare left on the main 1. (edited)
This is a screenshot of my App just now. As you can see connection speed between the 2 is 881Mb using all 3 wireless bands. (edited)
And with ax6600 this should stamp out any dead spot (edited)
Just want to test the huawei with the virgin in normal mode, whilst i know it'll cause double NAT it'll be good to know it can work like that.
I'm on Virgin though would like to keep the 4 ethernet ports in use on my current hub (using 3 and sometimes 4 into another room) and if it has this mode then it gives me options. Also thinking that I loose the 2.5gb port from my virgin hub though I'd have these 3 1gb ports spare. So am I making more of this than i need too, especially with my current package being 500mb?
This does seem a good deal to get better wifi speed throughout my house.
This would certainly provide more coverage to the rest of your house and some of guys have posted interesting comments about their setups which show high speeds being achieved around their homes.
For the money, I don't think there's any other new WiFi 6 tri band mesh system that can provide the results I'm getting.
