I bought a three pack in 2018. So proud that I had great signal all over my home. To make sure my WiFi never went down, all three are on a dedicated UPS. And then, Samsung said this was no longer supported on their software. For the past two years, internet is intermittent. We can connect directly to the router's WiFi, but the lights on the mesh (sometimes just one or two or all) are ... green blink ... red/green blink ... solid red ... and the downtime just gets more frequent and longer. Downtime is probably one-third of the time now. Sometimes we can connect to the mesh and have no internet connection (but the internet on the router is still fine) and other times we cannot even connect to the mesh. Last year we changed internet providers and hardware .... no improvement. Swapped the mesh around .... no improvement. Single mesh only at the router .... 1/3 the problem, but that defeats the purpose. Trash this if have you are having issues and try something else. I am not sure what else ... but you are not going to be able to magically make this start working like it used to. Maybe because every unit runs so hot since I bought it - in fact - it has discolored every piece of furniture because of the heat. Glad they discontinued them.

I have had this hub and wifi setup and running for over a year now. Super easy to setup with a Samsung Galaxy phone...I can't speak to how it is with anything else, but it took 20 minutes or less to unbox and have it running. I have since added numerous smart home devices as well. Having the smart home devices on a different protocol is great to avoid any interference. I have a 2000 sqft house and I only run into a connection issue at the farthest points away from the hub. This will be fixed with a second hub. With the two hubs, I will have signal throughout my whole house and on much of my 1/3 acre lot.

Wifi is a decent upgrade from the junk your internet provider gives you. App is acceptable. The units overheat CONSTANTLY. This was with the power supply provided in the box. Now to just add to my fun, my lovely cat decided to chew through one of the cords. No biggie right? Wrong, after speaking with support they won't replace the cord since it was messed up by my animal. I 100% understand this, never asked for anything free. After clarifying my stance and repeating that I was wanting to purchase one they do not have them available and they cannot recommend where to get another one. Now I am going to scrap the entire system and go to a different one to dodge the headache.

We bought the original set through Crutchfield. Tried with their tech support, 3 times, Samsung support and online SmartThings chat. Still not working. Finally adequate proof that the devices weren’t working. Got our second set last week. Hours of attempts with the same scripted help and we still don’t have connection.

i needed a all in one affair while in school. got this since it combines the smart home hub and wi-fi together. i read the newest model uses plume to handle traffic, and plume itself had good reviews. well when i finally got it all working, plume runs at bare minimum since i am set up as a bridge to a wired router (as in this thing acts only as an access point). also, i'm used to granular control of my access points. plume does not allow this. luckily, my wired router can pick up the slack. but if you are used to having the ability to control what devices go to which ip domain or setting up qos, avoid this thing. once i have settled down into a house, the wi-fi part of this will be turned off (if possible) and i'll keep it as a hub only. wi-fi signal is above average imo.

I switched my Google WiFi for these to add the hub function with minimum hardware. The hub works great and haven't had any issues at all. I was expecting a decreased WiFi signal and I was pleasantly surprised to see a stronger signal throughout my house. I wish you can control all of the functions of the router with one app but I'm satisfied that you can control the advanced features even if it takes two apps. For basic functionality, the SmartThings app works fine. I highly recommend.

i bought this to compare and possibly replace my current mesh network. installing the device was very easy, and the speeds are faster than my current mesh. my only issue so far, is unlike my other mesh network, i can not seem to prioritize specific devices. i plan to continue with the samsung smartthings wifi, might even get a few more for better coverage. i would recommend this to anyone who wants a good mesh network.

we followed all instructions and the product cannot be set up. we checked online help and other reviewers' experiences, and there were many people with the same issue. the device should blink red/green to start set up, but it never came up. samsung help site suggests to reboot the device (what a helpful advice!) and we did that several times. please be aware that this device simply may not work!

i have a fairly small townhouse with one hub per floor. even with 3 hubs in a small house, there is still many dead zones with very steep drop offs. there is parts of my house where i get 100mbps, two steps in one direction i get 10 and then one more step i get 0.1. i wish i had returned immediately as theyre very expensive and worse than using the stock router that was provided by isp.

speed and coverage are good. device controls are not accessible without an "s" series or "note" series device. fortunately, i had an old apple iphone that would run the required smartthings app. device stays unusually hot, but not enough to cause burns. needs good ventilation!

I’m a huge Samsung fan but this product was so bad that’s I’m honestly considering my future purchases moving forward. If there is any slight change in your household voltage somehow (brand new home) it errors out. Red blinking light, so switched directly to a wall socket and it will still red blinking light everyone once and while. Never had this issue with my Google wifi, asus or my ISP modem/router. Swapped through all the hubs still have the issue. When you get it working it’s great until the power goes out, then you gotta rotate plugs again, you have to restart your internet modem in a way that the Samsung SmartThings wifi can pick it up when it’s restarting. If you don’t you will have to go through a series of changing plugs and restarting your modem. It will not connect back to your modem unless you restart it. I tried to combine my widow and SmartThings hub together. Don’t do it get a router that works and get the SmartThings hub with no wifi. Also the updates from plume are infrequent and their call centre really feels like their hands are tied because it’s not really their product.

As a hub, I can't complain with it. The big issue is that the plugs are poorly labeled in the app. All the plugs connect without much issue once you figure out which is which. Now as for Wi-Fi....oh boy is it horrible. Signal strength is mediocre. Can go past 2 walls and already there is barely anything left. A single unit can BARELY cover a 600 sq.ft. apartment. Now the major culprit i found is Plume. That service is horrendous. The AI must have barely passed pre-k. There is 0 customization. Pretty much every other dual signal router can let you limit to which band to use, 2.4 or 5 GHz. Here? It will flip flop you on a whim and screw you over. If you have it set to bridge mode, as I do since I have a gigabit network switch, your options are further limited to basically seeing what is connected. I am upstairs in new apartment and my computer one second says 4 bar strength with over 100 MBps connection, next it says 2 with 3 bar strength. Samsung really needs to get rid of Plume. It hinders what could be a super competitor in the Wi-Fi/hub space. Even the most basic of consumer routers have some amount of granular control. As is, I would only recommend this item if you are on a budget and want the router and hub combo. Once I am settled out of school and in a house, I will disable the Wi-Fi aspect of this thing and use it only as a SmartThings hub which is what it does best.
