Pros & Cons
Pros
This is the first time i installed one in our home. The garage is in the back of my house after my backyard. Coverage up to 3,000 sq. Mbps all over the house.
The app and instructions are very intuitive. It uses the same app and follows the same setup procedure. There is some customization, but if you're coming from something like unifi, you might find it limited.
Every connected device enjoys a seamless and lightning-fast internet experience. The velop pro's capability to support up to 200 devices simultaneously speaks to its scalability and adaptability. I have a laptop and a phone that support wifi 6e, and t... Read More
Each router has four directional antennae running the inside height of the device. If you name your wifi exactly the same as your primary router, it is important to put it on a different channel.
Before it took about 15 minutes to download something 100 mb, now it downloads on the order of seconds. My phone which is a pixel 3a which used to get wireless download figures in the low 500s in my 2 gbps system.
Cons
The only instructions you get in the kit is a card that tells you to download the linksys app for setup. I am sure that there could have been a way to get this working but my spidey senses tell me that it would involve a 3way call with me, linksys and... Read More
Highlights
Quality
As expected they offer solid performance and excellent coverage providing max wifi speed to every room
These are very well made great working devices
These aren’t made for that and honestly i’d recommend something like an mr8300 and flashing it with openwrt
It however lacks function from the software such as manually choosing channels and its limited to 1g ethernet port and you need... Read More

Unfortunately this is one way this is priced as is
Packaging/appearance

Both routers in this set are identical in hardware so they can be used interchangeably as the 34parent34 and 34child34 routers ... Read More
Compared to other mesh wifi systems that i have owned or tried the linksys process is below the competition
Both ports are 1gbps so if your internet provider supports speeds that higher than that you should probably look elsewhere

Although we are mainly interested in performance when it comes to network equipment good looks do factor in when the unit is on display with your stereoentertainment system

I do wish this product would also come in a matte black finish as well

Although you could join an mx6201 unit to an existing wifi 6 mesh network as a child node you would lose all wifi 6e functionality
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
You want the new mx6201 to become your main router or parent node and have your existing wifi 6 or 5 units joining your ssid
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
There is a specific way to make this integration possible firstly if you have any custom configurations on your existing parent node write it down because this node will have to be reset to factory defaults
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Before you start you will need to download the linksys app free for your phone or tablet
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Note if all you are trying to achieve is a basic mesh network this will be configured easily out of the box using the app only
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If you have child nodes to add important if your child units were from an existing configuration make sure that you factory reset them first make sure you add them very close to the parent node before you move them to their final location usually within 30m100ft of the parent node
