We have two buildings and i would like to use deco X60 3pack for that. is deco X60 good solution for that? if not can you recommend me other tplink product? thank you very much for answer

You will need Deco model with "Added schedule and bandwidth limit to guest network" feature. You can find list of all such Deco models here: https://community.tp-link.com/us/home/forum/topic/597476

 

Note that some have firmware beta that you'll need to install manually, and some have production firmware that should be installed by Deco app. Pay attention to hardware version, this part is very important. For example, Deco X50 firmware V1.2 does not support that feature, while X50 firmware V1 does.

 

---------------------

 

As a workaround for Deco models that do not support that feature, you can run Deco mesh with only 2.4GHz enabled on Guest network (disable 5GHz, WiFi6, WiFi6E). That will substantially reduce WiFi speed of devices connected to Guest network.

Deco X60 is not on that list.

 

With Deco X60, you can try workaround I suggested.
