D-Link COVR-X1863
Main features
Next is D-Link’s COVR-X1863. Don’t be discouraged by its placement on our list – while it is a bit pricy and has fewer features than, for example, TP-Link and ASUS, it’s still a pretty great system. It offers Wi-Fi 6 standard, up to 600m2 coverage, and WPA3 encryption standard, among other great features. You can get a set of two or three nodes, and devices are low-key and compact enough not to stand out much in any environment.
Ease of use
Setting up D-Link shouldn’t be too much of an issue. There is a handy step-by-step guide that could make the whole experience run pretty smoothly. Just like most systems, this one also interconnects automatically, so once you have set your main device up, the rest should be a breeze. Just like TP-Link, this system also has an app, so if you’re not a fan of applications, consider it before buying. However, a great feature is Alexa and Google Assistant compatibility.
Value
Overall, COVR-X1863 offers great coverage and general features. However, compared to higher-ranking devices, it doesn’t have as many features or anything particularly unique. The price is reasonable, but not something that could be considered affordable. So, overall, you probably wouldn’t pick wrong if you opted for D-Link, but you should consider all the pros and cons before you do.
