The Difference Between The TP-Link Deco E4 and the TP-Link Deco M4

This article is for clients who want to know the difference between the TP-Link E4 and the TP-Link M4 Mesh WiFi systems. 

Watch this video to understand the difference between the TP-Link E4 and M4 deco mesh systems: 


What is Mesh WiFi and how does it work?

Mesh systems join two or more WiFi access points together, creating and sharing a single, seamless WiFi network that can be expanded and set up to cover even the largest of homes or buildings. Mesh WiFi provides customers with access to a stable connection with greater wireless coverage.

The difference between the TP-Link Deco E4 and the TP-Link Deco M4:

Externally the Deco E4 and the Deco M4 look very similar but there is a difference between the internal specs. The Deco E4 comes with a Fast Ethernet port, which means that it supports a maximum internet line speed of up to 100Mbps. The Deco M4 comes with two Gigabit Ethernet Ports per unit and can support speeds higher than 100Mbps.

 

If you have an internet line speed of less than 100Mbps, then the TP-Link E4 is the perfect solution for you. If you have an internet line speed that exceeds 100Mbps then the Tp-Link M4 is the best Mesh WiFi system for your home or business.
