Setting up is relatively simple but a bug in the app meant that it dropped half of my ISP login as it is an email address. The app dropped the @vodafone.com from the login, but techsupport were very helpful and solved it quite quickly by logging in directly to the router GUI instead of the app where I could see and correct the incorrect login. It's definitely NOT worth upgrading from Velop V1 or V2 to these unless you really want WiFi 6 which won't speed up your Internet connection, only the connection between your local devices. ## Features - Powerful Whole Home WiFi: Going beyond just fast internet, intelligent Mesh Technology & WiFi 6 bring connection stability, greater bandwidth, eliminate dead zones in your home - Seamless Streaming: Stream 4K UHD videos unbuffered with 4x faster WiFi speeds up to 5.3 Gbps, work at home efficiently with coverage up to 6000 sq ft, support for 100+ devices - Kid-Safe Internet: Enable Parental Control features to set time limits, schedule WiFi access, restrict explicit contents on kids, apos; devices so they can browse, play safely online - Easiest App-Based Setup: Get online in minutes with a simple setup process in the Linksys app, set up separate guest access and remotely manage your home mesh network in the app - Unbreachable Network: Backed by 3-Year Limited Warranty & Tech Support.

There are so many options and the market is so confusing that it took me a while to decide which one I wanted to get. I've gone for this 3 channel system to get the dedicated back haul channel between devices. I started with 2 with the thought that if I needed a better signal in the garden I could get a third. I have about 2200 sq ft house and about 40m of garden from the house and the two devices. It's a tech house so there are quite a few devices on the network with a mix of 2.4 and 5ghz devices. With two people at home on conf calls and two kids either streaming hd to phones/tablets or laptops and an xbox gaming all at the same time haven't had any problems with any of the devices. Only the LG tv occasionally buffers but this is a poor tv design as it was doing it with the old system as well. BEST THING! This system was turn on with the app and just worked out the box. Connected the second point device and again just worked and connected. Every device has just connected quickly and easily. Guest access network all setup and simple. If you want to do much more in a technical level though this device doesn't give you much of an option. WORST THING! You can't turn off the light on the top of the box! I contacted Linksys as the master device is in the bedroom and when the room is dark the led light on the top of the device is very bright! Other linksys devices you have an option to turn it off. Not on this one, I have asked for it to be added to the next linksys update. RECOMMENDATION! If you are not tech savvy, like 90% of the world and you want great range and performance then this just works! Turn it on, follow some really simple instructions in the app and you are away! If you know how to download an app from the mobile store then you can get this working! You will be free to wander the house and never loose wifi or even notice you are changing which device you are connected to. It is expensive, Mesh systems are, but if you have deadspots in the house my experience says you won't after! Little technical: Moved from a standard BT hub was generally at best getting 20-22mb download connection with 30mb download occasionally using a samsung s22 as a test using speedtest on 5ghz connection. I now get 32mb download regularly. Upload is now normally around 10mb up from around 9mb. I still get 24mb+ (on s22) from the bottom of the garden (40-50m from devices which are inside the house). It was no problem to Stream a whole disney+ film without any buffering or degradation of the picture on a laptop. ## Frequently Bought Together - Linksys Velop MX10600 Tri-Band Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 System (AX5300) - WiFi Router, Extender, Booster up to 6000 sq ft, 4x Faster Speed 100+ Devices, MU-MIMO & Parental Controls - White , Pack of 2 - Velop MX5300/ MX4200 Tri-Band Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 System (AX5300/ AX4200) WiFi Router Wall Mount Bracket Wall Mount Stand Holder, Easy Installation and Space Saving(1Pcs) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/211010363-velop-mx10600-tri-band-whole-home-mesh-wifi-6-system](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/211010363-velop-mx10600-tri-band-whole-home-mesh-wifi-6-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
