Dear friends,

This not a conspiracy thread anything like that, and just shared experience.

I got this device-set here for Christmas https://www.tp-link.com/us/deco-mesh-wifi/product-family/deco-x90/ for my house 1600 FT^2, to improve my Wifi. This is fantastic device, technically. I would never have imagined that I would be able to span almost 90% of 1 Gbps Fiber connection out via Wifi. The main deco is next to my ISP Zyxel router since it contains the modem, and 2nd one is a small home office room. After having the devices run for the first 24 hours everything was fine, but then I download a firmware update the devices itself surgest, to provide a more stable connection it said. Then 24 hours later something wird has started to happen. When I am in my living room for a longer periode, like watching the main tv, then I started to get this somewhat mild headache. I then turned off the TP-link devices and reverted back to my regular wifi rooter, and tinkling headache went away.

I am not a conspiracy nutter in any way, but its like the devices after firmware update did something that sadly gave me a mild headache. I don't want to look like an idiot, so I don't if should to return them? Or contact TP-link?

p.s. I am not on any medication, or have I ever experienced something similar before.

Wifi is wifi the new tplink units run on exactly the same radio frequencies at exactly the same power. This is all stuff regulated by government.

If wifi causes a issue you would think using a phone or other portable device that is much closer to you would cause problems and you would have notice long ago.

It is very unlikely they are causing the problem. It could be something else I know I had a power block that made a high pitched sound that I am now too old to hear. A young visitor complained about how loud my power block was.
