great access point, great support, some critical flaws for guest networks
Great access point and range for indoor use. The white status LED is not too bright at night and the 3 ports on the bottom are great for connecting additional devices if needed. Easy to mount to a standard single-gang electrical/data box.This was installed as part of an Omada deployment for a campground guest WiFi network that was replacing aging/outdated Ubiquiti equipment. Coupled with outdoor WiFi 6 EAP610s, these indoor units were used in trailers and campers that had weak signal from the outdoor units. Overall, these are great APs for short range needs like single rooms and small areas and works just fine. However, there is an overall flaw with all Omada APs regarding guest networking that was confirmed by TP-Link engineers that is important to note.TP-Link Omada access points of any flavor do not support Layer 2 client isolation. Even with guest network settings applied in the controller (or on the AP itself if using standalone), Layer 2 communication between clients still works despite not being able to ping those devices or reach any kind of a webpage or open port. While the guest settings do block the above types of client access, multicast packets still flow freely and everywhere. As such, our guest campground network let anyone anywhere wirelessly cast their screen via AirPlay, Google Cast, or Miracast to anyone's unsuspecting smart TV without warning. That is a huge security issue not to mention asking for problems to occur, so unfortunately I was left no choice but to return all of the Omada units and return to Ubiquiti equipment.With that being said, if that is not an issue for you, they work great in any other environment that does not require L2 isolation. they boot up incredibly quick, offer good signal and speed, and overall are a great product for the price. After escalating this issue with support, I was eventually put in touch with their engineering team running diagnostics with them and submitting Wireshark logs to get to the root of the problem. They said it would be added to a list for future firmware development, but I cannot wait for that to happen. It was upsetting to leave TP-Link because I know for a fact I would not get this kind of support with Ubiquiti (part of the reason I was trying to leave that ecosystem), but I didn't have much choice.

Great coverage and speed
Bought these to upgrade our home network. Was tired of spotty coverage, bad luck with repeaters and hated having to manually switch networks with other APs -roaming was never very effective. So the idea of fast roaming was really appealing. I didn't need a mesh system bc we have a lot of ethernet ports throughout the house so the 615 wall APs seemed like a good idea. I'm really pleased. I use 2 of them on the main floor (3 floor house), one on each end. The coverage is great for our house (~3500 sq ft). Sitting in the same room as the AP, I'm ~450+ Mbps (500/500 up/down for our ISP). Great coverage for the floor above and floor below the APs. Worse coverage in the house, I'm still pulling 250 Mbps. I use these with the SG-2008P switch and the omada controller software, which does a good job with fast roaming. The APs are easy to mount to replace an existing ethernet wall plate, just note they are POE. Not much bigger than the wall plate and no antennas sticking out. Much less intrusive than a typical AP with antennas hanging out on a table to shelf. Has 3 ethernet ports on the bottom for direct hard wire connections, which is really convenient. Easy enough to configure the network with the omada software, although I wouldn't recommend their router (tried it and returned it). Overall, very pleased, and would highly recommend.

Out-Performs The Ubiquiti UAP-IW-HD-US For Much Less
I don't have any .ax clients yet and I mounted both the UAP-IW-HD-US and 615 APs on the same wall box with the same network. The TP Link is 50 to 100Mbps faster to my Wifi 5 clients and has better antenna coverage to my far clients in a dense wifi area.I almost bought a second UAP-IW-HD-US until I started reading around and saw the 615 is like half the cost, so I bought two. I wound up installing both 615's but it's probably overkill in my case. One 615 was connecting fine to clients that the UAP-IW-HD-US could not. The UAP-IW-HD-US's antenna coverage doesn't seem to be very good at the edges. I wonder if the metal trim on the cover has a negative impact. A lot of people like the Ubiquiti console but there isn't a compact low cost stand alone console like the Omada system offers. I haven't tried Omada cloud yet, but it looks more straight forward. I don't need Omada Cloud or controller yet as the standalone mode with the app and logging into the AP's IP works perfectly for me. I set one to 5G and the other to 2.4G.If I ever need a new wired router I will try the Omada model and the controller unless the cloud is free. Currently, I use an Ubiquiti ER-X 5 port router with the HW routing enabled and it's a great little router. After that I connect the TP-Link TL-SG2008P for my cat5 outlets and to power the 615's. I just pulled 390Mbps over the air to my 2015 MacBook Pro.The next .ax version of the Ubiquiti should be faster, but until then there are better options, and even then the price premium for Ubiquiti doesn't seem worth it unless you need that ecosystem. The 615 is fast and great for a home application like mine - love having no router around the house taking up space.Before this upgrade I had a Nest Wifi and it was fine. The Nest wound up devolving to a state where it would be so slow and it wouldn't recover without a power cycle or for many hours. I'm pretty amazed how much faster the TP link 615's are.
