    How does this compare to the P9 or M4

    The X60 has a much newer, and probably faster, Wifi standard (X60 is the top end of Wifi 6, both P9 and M4 are Wifi 5).

    All the Deco models starting in an X use Wifi 6, though exact speeds vary - the X60 is the fastest of those I think. The latest Wifi standard is 6E - the XE75 has that, but most devices can't use it yet so probably not worth the (considerable) extra cost, unless you use it for backhaul:

    With mesh wifi you can either have the units communicate between themselves wirelessly or using ethernet - this is known as backhaul. The XE75 can technically use the 6Ghz spectrum for this, leaving 2.4 and 5 Ghz for actual wifi - though the range on 6Ghz is short so the devices will have to be close together. The P9 can use the electricity lines in your home as the backhaul instead of wifi or ethernet, though how reliable this can be will depend entirely on your wiring (I've had mixed results with powerline networking in the past).

    TP-Link's website actually has quite a good comparison feature - see here: tp-link.com/uk/…616

    Note all Deco models can be mixed and matched on one network.

    These are pretty decent but you do get a variable drop off in speeds as each unit gets further away naturally (that's without ethernet backhaul for me although futuristically I am trying to make that happen with some loft ethernet cabling) the range of the signal is good though. One important thing to mention is sometimes if you need this for zoom , it can cause alot of problems for that and video calls will drop out even when you are near one of the units, on the deco forums the company are aware of it .

    Ethernet backhaul where possible, for fit and forget functionality. I have 3x S4 with eth backhaul and been wonderful for years.

    Have been using it for a day now and so far so good. Can't comment on the speed because I only have a 75MB broadband, but coverage is great which is my main purpose. Testing with fast.com I don't see noticeable extra latency even if I'm connected to the satellite. (Around 12ms)
    It comes with enough basic features I need for now. Extra plus is the ability to have a dedicated IoT SSID (on top of guest SSID, so it can have 3 SSID) to keep the most risky devices away from the phones and laptops, and let me turn on WPA3 only for the main WiFi.
