Deco X50-5G vs Deco X3000-5G - Updated recommendation
Hello TP-Link Community,
I'm about to purchase a 5G Deco system for long-term use (8-10 years) and need updated advice on choosing between Deco X50-5G and Deco X3000-5G.
I found this thread from June 2024: https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/671632 where @David-TP recommended the X50-5G as the main model.
However, we are now in October 2025.
My questions:
- Is the recommendation still the same (X50-5G), or has something changed?
- Which model will receive firmware support longer - the X50-5G or the X3000-5G?
- Are there any known stability issues with the X3000-5G I should be aware of?
Use case: Primary internet via fiber box connected to WAN port of the X50-5G or the X3000-5G, with 5G as automatic backup failover in case of fiber outage. Location: France.
Thank you for any updated guidance from @David-TP or experienced users!
