BTWhole Home Wi-Fi, Pack of 3 Discs, Mesh for Seamless, Speedy (AC2600) Connection, Coverage in Medium to Large Homes, App for Complete Control, 3 Year Warranty

Don't often write reviews but this deserved one.I've been struggling with intermittent wifi and poor range from my TPLink Archer VR800 wi-fi router/modem for over a year (TalkTalk are my ISP), often having to reset the router multiple times daily to restore the wi-fi connection. Hard-wired over ethernet was never a problem and always provided 36MBps, so I eliminated the incoming broadband as the issue.I tried several options to resolve the issue including range extenders (flaky connection, poor wifi speeds) and powerline adaptors (1920s house, so cabling was not up to the job) which were either too complex and/or unreliable. I was starting to burn through hours and hours of my life trying to sort it out and getting increasingly frustrated.A friend mentioned mesh networks to me and after some research, I came across the BT Whole Home product. Reviews seemed good and the price OK so I took a punt.The installation was an absolute breeze and took all of 30 mins from opening the box to being fully set up. You hard-wire one of the discs to your router/modem then the other 2 discs connect wirelessly, using the BT app to determine suitable locations for them around your house. I have one in the lounge, one in the kitchen and another upstairs and I now have 36MBps in every room of the house (same as the incoming line speed) and so far the connection hasn't dropped once. Devices switch connection automatically to the closest disc as you move around the house. You can then disable the wi-fi on your router/modem.I can't recommend this system enough if you have a have poor/intermittent wi-fi and dead-spots throughout your house. It provides full speed broadband in every room and is an idiot-proof, plug & play installation with virtually no configuration required. It's simple and it just works, which is exactly what I wanted. Perfect 10/10. Well done BT.

I live in an old house and the location of the single master BT point is in the lounge - the oldest part of the house, and the room with the thickest walls. Brilliant for insulation, a nightmare for wifi.When I moved in I chose BT to provide broadband (a rural location, so figured BT would be the best choice as I would be ahead of the queue when they upgraded the exchange to 'real' broadband), and worked through the BT hubs 4, 5 and 6. None of them were able to penetrate the thick walls and give me wifi throughout my property - which I understand: I don't doubt they are predominently designed for newbuilds with walls that allow the signal to penetrate.I have tried numerous signal boosters, but all have suffered from one draw back or another, and none have proved reliable. I also replaced the BT hub with an [expensive] ASUS gamer router with multiple antena - again, it was not able to provide a good signal throughout my property, and definitely wasn't as reliable as the BT hub .... but that is the subject of a different review!About a year ago (when I moved from BT to EE for my broadband provider) I invested in a BT 2 disk system, on the assumption that I could use the second disk to utilise mesh technology and provide a decent signal to the rest of my property. Hey presto - it works!The 'base' disk is plugged directly into the router, and the second disk has a decent line of sight to the base router, and this provides more than a good relay signal (completely workable) to the rest of my property.Move on another year, and I decided to go with Blink cameras for security. To explain for the purpose of this review, the Blink cameras (located outside) need a good wifi link to my broadband in addition to a good link to the Blink hub - something which I would imagine is difficult in many households, and although my two disks provide me with a 'good' signal throughout my property, the second disk doesn't provide a great signal throughout - I don't blame this on the device but on my very thick and old walls!Given previous positive experiences with the BT disks, I invested in the three pack to expand my existing network, locating the disks in rooms near the Blink cameras.The results? I now have EXCELLENT wifi throughout the whole of my property, which extends to the nearby perimiter completely sufficient for the Blink cameras which show a 5 bar wifi signal .... and inside, I have absolute coverage of excellent strength wifi in all rooms.I haven't needed to contact support, hence no rating, but I would happily recommend this product as a best buy for a number of reasons:1) if you can have 'rough' line of sight between some of the disks, they can extend your wifi signal transparently to all devices throughout your household (my smart home technology just links to the best signal, and yes, I have seen an improvement in responses since I expanded 'the mesh').2) even if you don't have line of sight, you could potentially use a network over mains adapters to connect the devices remotely to your base router and share the signal throughout the house - I have tried this with numerous options, but I really didn't find it as reliable as allowing the disks to be able to relaythemselves. In my experience, providing one disk has a semi-decent line of sight to the 'base' disk, the others all work very very well and provide a good signal: useful if your phone point it located somewhere with thick walls.3) numerous devices nowadays need a wired connection to your router - I have an alarn and CCTV (separate to the Blink) which need a hardwired connection to 'the router' - the RJ45 network connection on the back of one of my disks (each disk has a connector to plug in a network lead) works perfectly well, and each devices 'believes' they are plugged in to the router.4) I really like the guest wifi option - this is a separate wifi network you can set up which is kept isolated from your main wifi network, so guests can connect to the internet without being able to connect to any of the devices on your home network - great, as you don't have to rely on your guests having antivirus and malware protection, and potentially infecting your network devices (it's also useful for connecting 'suspect' devices to your network when the company doesn't have a clear privacy and security policy, e.g. IoT monitoring cameras, though I'm not talking about Blink ... of which I'm a huge fan!).5) linked to 4, you can switch the guest network on and off without impacting your main network, and you can also pause your network - stopping internet access - the nice part being you can specify which devices this affects. I would imagine this would be useful for adults with kids, or guests who are streaming annoying music!6) I like the phone app (also available via a web portal) that allows you to see what/who is connected, the signal strength between the disks, and to easily control reboots, guest network and numerous other settings such as if the disks lights are on or off.7) I like that you have the ability to block specific devices from connecting to your wifi - my guest wifi is setup with the default BT Hub 4 settings, as this is what my guests previously connected to. As the network is quite easy to hack, several uninvited guests took the opportunity to utilise my broadband connection - I don't blame them ..... but their MAC addresses are now blocked. Not infaliable, but it makes it harder and so hopefully they will move on to another wifi network.The only downside, and I wouldn't say this is a reason to not purchase [more feedback for BT], is that there is no option (currently) to turn off the LED on one disk - the option is for all disks and it is either off, low or bright - personally, I want to keep the LED switched on for my disks as it is a good indicator that things are working well (or not!), but for the disk in my bedroom, I would like to be able to switch it off - but you currently can't for a single disk. In the meantime, duck tape means my bedroom isn't lit up with the [good status] blue LED.No matter who your broadband provider is, I would highly recommend this product - it's REALLY easy to setup either via the web portal or preferably the phone app, and it works. I am a very satisfied customer.
