Our verdict
The entry Wi-Fi 6 Deco, AX1800 dual-band with a quad-core CPU (per listing). It works for flats and small houses, but there is no dedicated backhaul, so performance falls off in a larger home. The 3-pack was GBP 195 when checked. Newer Deco models give better value.
What can Home Assistant control on the TP-Link Deco X20?
No core Home Assistant integration covers Deco. The community HACS integration tplink_deco polls locally for device trackers but is in maintenance mode, and X20 support specifically was not verified. Treat presence tracking as best effort.

Frequently asked questions
- Does the TP-Link Deco X20 work with Home Assistant locally?

- Which protocol does the TP-Link Deco X20 use, and do I need a hub?
- The TP-Link Deco X20 uses Wi-Fi. To pair it with Home Assistant you need no hub — it joins your Wi-Fi network directly. TP-Link's own hub is not required when you integrate through a community integration installed through HACS (tplink_deco).
