Will need some days to monitor but straight off there are a few things I don't like about the TP-Link Deco M9 Plus:

1. No Web UI, everything is managed using Deco app on my phone. A bit too radical for me LOL.
I heard about this. But don't know 2nd Deco can get more speed same as the main deco.
2. Deco app has such a simple interface. Culture shock sikit after coming from AsusWRT-Merlin.
3. Can't customize the wifi config. No channel setting or ability to turn off 2.4Ghz.
Cannot set Channel Bandwidth and Channels? Cannot Hide SSID? Like set to 40MHz?
4. Wifi coverage seems to be wider than my AC68U but speeds are not that impressive. More testing needed.
Do test more and let know ya.
5. Had to setup the Deco as my main router because some of the Deco's features don't work in AP mode.
What features won't work?

First few positive impressions:

1. Can finally retire my TP-Link AV1300 Powerline kit. Used to get below 200mbps on speedtest from my study room PC wired to the 2nd plug.
Oh, the speed was bad. Can sell off already
2. My study room PC connected by cable to the 2nd Deco unit is now getting 400mbps on speedtest.
2nd Deco can get 400Mbps and above. Stable all the time?
With room closed or opened?
3. No complaints from anyone at home so far.

Thanks for the updates. Just need the answers highlighted in blue.

How about 5GHz signal? Is it better than ASUS AC68U?
Can get full signal around the house over 5GHz?

Still no....tried every settings...

What is your firmware version? By any chance is the firmware bugs? Last time the noip ddns also got bugs, im kinda feel little shaky of their firmware and they hiding the firmware upgrade section...
*
BTW. I'm using Archer C9.
I have C1200 which is running on latest firmware, keeping in the cupboard now.

TIME Firmware hides the firmware upgrade section.
You can manually enter to this link.
http://192.168.0.1/userRpm/firmwareUpgrade.htm
Login to the router then only click the above link.

Try changing to Google DNS IPv6.

Thanks.

The 2nd deco unit (satellite?) does get lower speed. I can accept up to 100mbps loss vs the main deco unit since my internet connection is so fast already, personally speaking.
If I were you, I would accept 100Mbps loss or above too.
200 - 300Mbps is enough for me as my 5GHz Laptop up to 350 - 400Mbps near the router which is TP-Link Archer C9
I don't see any channel bandwidth or selection options in the deco app. Can hide SSID though.
OK. Thanks for the info.
Not easy to do wifi analysis on iphone. Plus I don't really have time to compare AC68U vs Deco M9+ in every area in my home with my wife's android phone.
If cannot, then Never Mind. Another member promised me update when he receives the Deco M9 PLUS
Unfortunately, I do not know if 5GHz is reaching to all corners of my home since I can't set different SSID for 2.4 and 5.0GHz on the deco.
You mean single Wi-Fi Name only? No separate band name?
For now, I can get strong wifi in my drying area and storeroom at the back of my home, better than almost zero signal with the AC68U.
That's good to hear. It's better than no coverage.

Yes, both 2.4 and 5ghz bands have the same SSID name on the m9 deco plus.
*
That's the reason it cannot change the Wi-Fi Configuration.

Try using 2.4GHz device and test and see.
I suppose it will connect to 5GHz Band if device supports 5GHz connection.
What's the link speed on 2.4GHz device only and 5GHz device.

Thanks.

Never mind bro. Appreciate your help bro.

Will wait for another member here to update.
My house having the most is 2.4GHz devices.
3 Phones and 4 Laptops under 2.4GHz.

5GHz devices.
1 Android Box, 1 Phone and 1 Laptop.

Just received my Deco M9+ today. Will be setting up later.
My current setup is 1800sqft apartment, Asus 1200G+ and TPlink AC RE305 extender.
Will post my impressions later.

Can't wait for your test bro.
Do test out 2.4GHz connection speed on only 2.4GHz devices.
And 5GHz devices too.

Thanks.

You're using Unifi 300Mbps?
TIME doesn't have 300Mbps.

Hope it helps!

If you can do the whole pull cable+install a strong AP that might be better. I have a total of 10 devices online most times and the Deco seems to be coping pretty well. Added bonus is I can shut down my kids' internet access with a click and see what apps they're using.
*
TP-Link Deco can do such features?

Able to monitor which Apps or Website visited?
And switching off your kids Internet Access? Is it Parental Controls?
Got Antivirus?

Thanks.

Yes sir. Can limit what apps you allow to open, how many hours a day internet wifi is given to each device, and also antivirus and intrusion protection.
I just changed the DNS for the Deco from TIME's to Cloudflare and will monitor the performance.

Thanks for the info.

Not sure which one is better. Google or Cloudfare.
Didn't heard about Cloudfare before.

but the wifi router they provide i feel is not that good, sometime i get no wifi signal and there was once the whole router just restart out of the blue

Hi, welcome to our TIME's family.

Ya, I agreed that the router stock they gave was not very stable.
Due to not sufficient RAM will make the router disconnect with a red globe.
