The editors didn't like

  • Need to replace your existing network
  • Continuous data sharing with TPLink could present some risks
  • Longterm pricing for the security package is unclear
  • No dedicated channel for data backhaul
  • Must use a smartphone or tablet for setup and configuration
  • Available in three-packs only
  • No web interface
  • Does not support dedicated band control
  • Flatout speed not up to par with highend routers
  • Few tweaks available to power users
  • Can get warm as heat vents are at the bottom
  • The M5 doesn't have a dedicated backhaul band
  • So it suffers from signal loss when its units are linked together wirelessly. It connects to TP-Link at all times and there's no access point mode for it to work well with an existing router
  • The Antivirus as a Separate Paid Service After Three Years
  • Has Some Advanced Features
  • But the List is Short
  • App-Only Interface
  • Not as many configuration options as a normal router
  • Will need to buy a switch if you need multiple Ethernet ports
  • Slightly slow at close range
  • Pricier than BT Whole Home Wi-Fi

  • Unstable Bluetooth mobile setup process, No web-based backend, Wireless AC devices have a 433Mbps limit, Shallow “advanced” features
  • At this point, we can't recommend this product. There are better performing, less aggravating, more robust solutions on the market today. Sure, the built-in anti-virus aspect is cool, but it's outshined by the setup woes and performance issues. Perhaps TP...
