The frustrating thing about your review is you haven’t done any homework on the product you are reviewing. Plume’s equipment optimizes itself in the cloud and studies your usage to improve performance. It also has an industrial grade network quarantine for malware and devices that are having unusual behavior. Plume has a ton of features other mesh providers don’t offer. I had Plume for years and really enjoyed them. Their support was excellent and based in the USA and 24 hours. I have eero now and enjoy them too, but Plume’s wifi6 SuperPods seem like they might be the market leader in performance and features.
Plus they do not extend your WiFi, these form a mesh network. WiFi extenders suck, they cause a lot of stability issues on the network. Mesh networks work more like cell towers handing off you devices connections from pod to pod. Plume website has a lot of info.
@@israelgonzalez5166 adding another pod extends your wifi though ? Are you saying these are better than extenders , completely agree I have three and my whole house and yard are covered.
@@brettgiddings9775 Extends your WiFi, in the sense that it makes your WiFi coverage area greater. But the way they work is completely different from WiFi extenders. Many people do not understand the difference and as a result may not even try mesh networks thinking they are just WiFi extenders. Calling a mesh network node a WiFi extender is like calling a 2 way radio a cellphone.
These devices are amazing and have made my home network better in so many ways! Definitely recommend! If you can configure them, that is. Good luck. Google is your friend.
Why do you have it plugged into your router???? The super pod is a router??? I install point broadband for a living and if customers use the pods the Ethernet come in straight to the super pod.
From experience, I can't get the app to work. I've tried to see if there is any administrative panel for the super pod my fiber connects to, but there isn't one I can find. So in my case, a router is the only way I can have administrative abilities over my network.

Thats fair, but they dont even explain that much in the instruction manual
