@David-TP, I feel like the ask here is simple. You have linked to the spec sheet for one model, that does not specify the hardware version. So even with this there is no way to know when buying the device which features are included if the seller does not have the latest in stock. But let's say the seller has nothing but the latest models. Using the example in the original post, how does one know which mesh routers support VPN client? A simple grid with each model and each feature with an indication of the feature support. Pretty common. Here is a (inadequate) version from another vendor https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=47621, I think we would like to see this with a feature by feature view.

Thanks for your reply.

Without sifting through dozens of product sheet specifications it's not possible to easily distinguish what features are present/missing for one Deco device versus another. If, after sifting through many specification pages you're able to remember exactly what models have which features and what models they're missing from (along with the model numbers themselves) then you're significantly sharper than me.

It's so much easier when you can just compare products immediately (at a glance).

I feel that there's a good reason why other manufacturers tend to do this with so many different types of products and product ranges. These grids/matrixes are used for both technical and non-technical products, but I feel that since tech products have so much more information to digest then it's even more important.

Thanks again.
