Which one should you buy?
For most Australian households the TP-Link Deco X55 (3-Pack) at around $389 is the right buy. WiFi 6 with AX3000 dual-band is enough headroom for every common AU NBN tier (50/100/250) without overspending on WiFi 7 you can't use, the three nodes blanket a typical 3-bedroom home including the backyard, and TP-Link's AU support has held up across 18 months of editorial follow-ups with no widespread firmware-regression pattern.
If your home runs significant smart-home gear — Nest cameras, Nest doorbell, Chromecasts, Nest Audio speakers — the Google Nest WiFi Pro (3-Pack) at ~$549 is the upgrade. Built-in Thread border router + Matter hub means new IoT devices pair automatically, the Google Home app handles parental controls + guest WiFi in two taps, and the mesh self-heals when a node loses power. Pay the extra only if your smart-home device count is over 10.
The TP-Link Deco M4 (3-Pack) at ~$179 is the rental and small-apartment pick. WiFi 5 AC1200 is plenty for NBN 50/100, three nodes cover a 2-bedroom apartment, and at under $60 per node it's hard to argue. Don't buy this if your NBN plan is 250 Mbps or faster — the AC1200 ceiling will cap you below your subscription speed.
One honest limitation: none of these three is WiFi 7. If you're on NBN 1000+ Hyperfast or building a future-proof network for the next 5 years, the separate WiFi 7 picks (NETGEAR Orbi 770 at ~$1,497, TP-Link Deco BE65 at ~$818) are the right buys — covered in the body of the full article above.
