Excelente red mesh, tengo 6 nodos para 240 mts cuadrados sin interferencia y más de 40 aparatos conectados

Cumple con lo que promete. Ofrece buena velocidad de "download y upload" en todo mi hogar. Precio muy competente.

I bought these so that I could establish an IOT subnet on my network. I'm only going with 4 stars because I wish they had a web interface API so that I could mange them outside of being forced to download an app.

I was skeptical of these when I bought them; all the reviews I read said to go with either Google WiFI or Eero, but I really didn't want to spend $200+ on a mesh setup, especially without knowing how coverage would be in our new house.My personal set up is running in "APmode" with a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter (which I also HIGHLY recommend) acting as router, DHCP, and secondary DNS for my network, with a Synology NAS running primary DNS.-- SETUP --Setup was very very easy. Its pretty much plug in, turn on, and pair with the Tenda app.-- INTERFACE --I took 1 star off for the UI because there's no web UI as of this review. Tenda is supposed to be rolling a web management UI out as a firmware update sometime soon-ish, but its not out yet. As of this review, all management is done via the Tenda smartphone app. It works well, but isn't as full-featured as I would like, but I'm a developer by day and my depth of interest in customization or metrics is probably way deeper than most. In the app you can see your online nodes, what devices are connected, and all the usual info -- perfectly usable.-- ISSUES --The only issue that I had was related to DHCP leases for the nodes. When running in AP mode, the nodes aren't responsible for their own DHCP leases which has the potential to cause problems should leases expire and different IP's get assigned. This causes the nodes to not be able to communicate with each other, breaking the mesh. This can be worked around by one of two ways: 1) dont use AP mode, or 2) assign static DHCP reservations to the nodes on first boot BEFORE pairing. I didn't do this and had to re-create my mesh after a power outage, but have since assigned static DHCP leases and have had no issues since. Unless you're running a slightly more complicated setup as I am this should never be an issue, though.-- FEATURES --The addition of an Ethernet port on the nodes is brilliant. I have one node stationed behind my smart TV with the TV tethered via CAT6e to the node. This eliminates a wireless hop that would otherwise have to exist if I weren't able to hard-wire my TV into the network.-- BANDWIDTH --The stated bandwidth for the mesh is 1200 Mbps, however real-world bandwidth is closer to 90Mpbs with multiple devices and streaming IoT on the network (I have a few WiFI CCTV cameras, smart tvs, and other bandwidth-heavy things). I have yet to hit bottlenecks in bandwidth even when streaming 4K video over the mesh along with all the other crap on my network.-- CONCLUSION --If you want a hyper-feature-rich experience and Gigabit WiFi speeds, go look at Google WiFi or Eero, but if you want dead-simple, bulletproof, no-frills, no-BS mesh WiFi, this is the setup for you.5/5 would buy again

After using the Tenda Nova Mesh WiFi System, I found it to be an extremely underwhelming choice, even at its attractive price point. Here’s why:1. Poor App Experience: The app requests unnecessary permissions, including access to your SMS messages, call logs, and files, which raises privacy concerns. The setup process often leads to glitches, such as incomplete firmware updates that require a full reset and reconfiguration【9】【10】.2. Subpar Wireless Performance: Despite advertising speeds of 1200 Mbps, this system struggles to achieve 35 Mbps over Wi-Fi under real-world conditions. Wired connections fare slightly better, but even then, the performance doesn’t match its claimed potential【8】【9】.3. Limited Device Capacity: Tenda claims the system can handle multiple devices, but with as few as 15 connected, disruptions become frequent. This makes it unsuitable for modern households with numerous smart devices【9】【10】.4. Unreliable Encryption and Privacy: The claimed WPA-PSK encryption is substandard, and the device continuously communicates with a Chinese server to check for internet connectivity. This raises serious security and privacy concerns【8】.5. No Future Updates: The lack of software or firmware updates means vulnerabilities are left unpatched, and the device does not stay competitive against modern mesh systems【10】.6. Expert Reviews Agree: Technical reviews from trusted sources highlight similar problems. For instance, Digital Citizen and SNBForums found the Tenda Nova MW6 unreliable for consistent speeds, poor app design, and problematic firmware updates【8】【10】.Recommendation: For a better experience, I would recommend considering alternatives like TP-Link Deco or Asus AiMesh systems, which offer better performance, stronger security, and ongoing updates. The Tenda Nova MW6 might look like a good deal, but its issues make it a poor long-term choice. Save yourself the frustration and invest in a reliable system!
