Even the Tenda app is easy to use and works great. You can see the status of each unit and the devices connected to them.
Super happy with it!
If you want a mesh router with basic regular options, affordable and most important No services / subscriptions then this is it.
I compare the wifi signal/noise between 1 mx12 node and my previous 7 antenna router and the tenda node delivers a better farther signal.
I was skeptical but this Wi-Fi 6 mesh really works great. I'll update if anything goes wrong.
I am very pleased with my purchase.
first, I have one unit that just randomly decides to disconnect itself from the network for no particular reason. literally. it's in my office room connected to nothing but my nas that sits idle 99% of the time as well as my office desktop and network printer which both are off 99% of the time. periodically I'll try to access the nas or Windows will give me an alert for file history being disconnected too long and I'll open the router portal and that unit will be grayed out on the tree. sure enough go into the office and the light is blinking green. power cycling the unit fixes it but this happens SEVERAL TIMES EVERY SINGLE DAY.
second, the 2 secondary units will just crash or something when faced with too much traffic. how much is too much? a single 1080p youtube video apparently, in some cases. ill be watching a video, then suddenly the wifi will drop out, i look over and the unit is blinking red. after a bit it will reset itself and reconnect, but this is still 2-3 minutes after failure so its not a short quick interruption. same for the other one, i tried to hook up and run a pihole (network wide adblocker) just to try it out and that unit would CONSTANTLY crash 2-3 times AN HOUR due to the entire network having to be routed through that unit to go through the raspberry pi.
finally, the primary unit will also itself just randomly decide "im out" and do the blinking red light. this kills the entire network for the house because even if the other 2 units (by some miracle) are fully functional at the time because nothing can connect to the local network anyway. this is the rarest issue of the 3, but still shouldnt happen in the first place.
note that this is with an entirely ethernet backhauled setup too, no wireless to wireless bridging, which makes this all the more damning.
before i bought the mx12 ive been running a mishmash of a couple entirely different routers (a dlink and 2 tplinks) that all just said the same SSID and password and disabling dhcp on all but one of them, effectively meshing them. i ran that setup for over 5 years, and it worked perfectly. seriously, i had probably 95-98% uptime that entire time, there were almost no problems ever. even going room to room the handoff between routers was seamless. i only upgraded because i wanted wifi6 and i didnt want to spend 300-400 bucks on multiple mid tier routers. clearly i should have.
Prime Day came around and this system was available at a great price but these have more problems. The bottlenecking is still happening (messages get backed up and then randomly come through all at once or I have to physically open up Messenger or other app so get notifications) and the speed is terrible.
I dropped my old router for a mesh setup but as a troubleshooting and verification step, I have been swapping in my old router to ensure it is in fact the Tenda system causing the notification issue. Also, my old router is achieving better speeds. As mentioned, I pay for 250mbps and no matter the device or time tlof day, the best I've recorded through speedtest.net is about 65mbps. All firmware is updated and all settings are correct and it's just not good. I have had several problems of YouTube videos getting stuck in a buffer loop and photos come through Messenger really slow, etc., definitely not something that should be happening with cable internet.
I have tested my wife's phone as well as my tablet and have also observed slow speeds on my laptop. Is quality control bad? Are they falsely advertising speeds to sell units? I don't know the answer but this setup is going back to Amazon.
Despite my problems, there is some good stuff. Setup was super easy with the Tenda app. They look really cool and match my decor well. The signal is strong throughout my house as well as reliable despite the slow speeds. The app let's you easily control a lot of different things so it's quite versatile. Oh, and the price is right.
I wanted to like these, and Tenda, but I'm not having any luck. Maybe down the road I will try again; third time's the charm, am I right?
