What is OneMesh?

Unsure as to whether to replace your existing router, with a brand-new Mesh solution? TP-Link OneMesh resolves your dilemma. Just connect a OneMesh range extender or powerline extender to a OneMesh router, and enjoy the seamless Mesh Wi-Fi. *Please update the firmware of OneMesh devices to enjoy Mesh network.

 

  • OneMesh is a feature on select TP-Link routers and extenders that enables you to create a mesh network. This helps to expand your existing network and make high-speed Wi-Fi accessible throughout your home by using existing compatible devices, as opposed to purchasing a new Mesh system.
  • For a complete list of TP-Link devices that support OneMesh, please visit https://www.tp-link.com/us/onemesh/product-list/.

 

A few reasons to choose OneMesh

 

  • Extend Wi-Fi coverage to dead spots in your home.
  • Seamless Wi-Fi connections with one name so you no longer need to switch between router and range extender networks.
  • Easy and centralized setup and management of devices.
    • Manage your whole-home Wi-Fi through central node (main router) via the Tether app or Web UI to easily adjust or customize wireless settings.
  • Affordable network choice compared to other mesh networks.
    • Add on to existing OneMesh compatible TP-Link devices.

 

How to set up OneMesh

 

  • Make sure your existing TP-Link router supports OneMesh.
  • Connect one or more OneMesh compatible range extenders or powerline adapters to the router.
  • Enjoy your whole-home network.
  • Please note that you cannot create a OneMesh network between two routers.
  • For detailed instructions on how to set up: web browser, Tether app, and WPS button.

 

OneMesh offers an affordable solution that allows you to enjoy the convenience of a mesh network with existing devices.

Question - if I'm NOT using any range extenders, is there any benefit to turning off OneMesh in my router? Performance or anything....?

No because OneMesh needs either a compatible Range Extender or PowerLine product to properly function.

  @Carl So is it doing absolutely nothing then? Or is it polling for another OneMesh device, etc, anything that uses router resources?

Its not doing anything, nor is it using any resources.  If there are no satellite nodes (range extenders or PLC) that are configured as OneMesh nodes the feature does nothing.  OneMesh is a feature solely to make use of existing equipment to make a Mesh network.
