Just applied Time 100Mbs from Times, its given EC230-G1 router
I found the coverage is quite weak, looking for extender

Got few question
1. Inside EC230-G1 website, its mention support easy mesh, but does this router support OneMesh?
2. looking for extender matching the router, currently focus on RE300 or RE305, anyhow having experience for it? RE300 support OneMesh as well.
3. Any better way to extend for better coverage/stability.

YEs it does. You can purchase another unit from TIME.

RE650 tested works well.

3. Any better way to extend for better coverage/stability.
Perhaps you could look into Mesh solutions if you have tendency to have seemless roaming.
Thanks, I cant found EC230-G1 listed as compatible list for OneMesh on TPlink webside
https://www.tp-link.com/sg/onemesh/compatib...tm_campaign=all

If you been test and confirmed RE300 able to work under OneMesh with EC230-G1, I'll give a try.
I not prefer get another EC230 as its unable mounting on the plug


For better Mesh solution like DECO M5, do we still need the router? Or the DECO M5 will be the router to replace my EC230-G1?

Hi all,

I plan to upgrade from 100mb to 500mb.
I saw the plan offer Wifi 6 mesh + Wifi 5 nodes.

Currently, I already using TPLink Deco M9 Plusm which with AC2200
5 GHz: 867 Mbps (802.11ac) - wireless backhaul
5 GHz: 867 Mbps (802.11ac)
2.4 GHz: 400 Mbps (802.11n)

I like to ask, what is the spec/model for Time offer free mesh + router? I though Node shall using same as Master, why its mention Wifi 5 node?
If its a downgrade, then I would just keep my current mesh instead

Keep your current mesh.

Does the Wifi 5 "node" actually just a Router that config into Wifi Extender?

Or its really a Mesh System?

Anyone had the Huawei model for both?
