Today, we will solve this problem of those who have internet problems at home, all together. So how do we do this? It is a device equipped with both modem, router and mesh technology, which TP-Link calls Deco X20-DSL. In other words, you can use this device as a modem or add it as a router to your network. Best of all, if you want to have internet access from anywhere in your home and benefit from the internet at the highest speed, it paves the way for you to set up a mesh system. Well, there will be those who will ask what the mesh system can be, let’s briefly explain this right away.

What is Mesh?

Mesh systems are used as an ideal solution, especially for multi-storey and large houses / offices. This method is a more effective solution than network adapters, routers and powerline systems that extend the range we know and plug into corridors, back rooms. Because Mesh systems connect 2 or 3 routers to each other using the bridging method, mesh protocol, eliminating confusion with their setup, not reducing performance, and maximizing coverage. So with this system, we can say that you win in every sense.

We said 2 or 3 routers, but now we have only 1 of this device. Yes, Deco X20-DSL is included as a single device in this package, so if you want to buy a really powerful modem – router, you should choose it. However, if you say that I will install a mesh system, I will transfer the WiFi to other rooms or to the lower or upper floor without performance degradation, then you will go for 2-pack and 3-pack. While there is 1 main modem router in 2-packs and 3-packs, there is also Deco X20 router. Thus, you place this device in the center where you will distribute the internet, and then line up other X20 routers in the areas you want to extend. At the end of this process, the entire home or office is already covered with WiFi over the mesh protocol. Thus, you get the same WiFi performance at the other end of the WiFi connection.

How to Install TP-Link Deco X20-DSL?

The installation of the device is also quite simple. Those who have used TP-Link products before will know that there is a practical Deco application. You can complete the installation of Deco X20-DSL very simply by following the steps on this application, which has a completely Turkish interface. Of course, you also need to make the front cable connections and make the device work.

What are the TP-Link Deco X20-DSL Features?

Yes, we will come to the installation details soon, but first let’s get to know the device a little more closely.

Deco X20-DSL is a VDSL2 supported device. It has Wi-Fi 6 support and of course also shows IPv6 compatibility. Deco X20-DSL, which has the capacity to reach theoretical speeds of 574 Mbps in the 2.4GHz frequency band and 1200 Mbps in the 5GHz frequency band, will of course perform as well as your internet infrastructure at the end of the day. When the internet I use at home is limited to 100 Mbps, I saw 100 Mbps at the maximum point from this device, which I say is a good thing. So you will be able to get maximum performance.

On the other hand, even if you use this device alone, we can say that the WiFi range is quite wide. There is a corridor of about 10 meters in my house and the modem is installed in the back room. Under normal conditions, I also use a separate mesh system, but I can say that I get a similar performance with this device alone. I was able to receive a WiFi signal from the back room where I installed the modem to the living room. But of course, for full performance, if I buy this device, I prefer the 2-pack package containing Deco X20-DSL and 1 X20 router, so that I can get maximum performance at both ends. I think I can explain what I mean.

After installing, you can access many settings from within the application. These include parental controls at the security point and HomeShield security features. Who is connected to your device, which pages are visited; You can see all the security options through the application.

in a nutshell

Yes, we think everything is ok so far. If your house is already a typical 2+1 shaped house, this device alone will be more than enough for you. If you live in a slightly larger house with a long corridor like mine, then my recommendation would be to choose the 2-pack model of this product. Or if you live in a 2-storey house, it makes more sense to choose the 3-pack model this time – which was exactly how I used it in my previous house. In fact, the product I used was the 3-device mesh system of TP-Link Deco M5. Now at this point, you measure and weigh and decide for yourself. Yes, thanks for watching. There will be installation, there will be connection problems, it will be about which device you should buy, I am waiting for all your questions in the comments section below.
