How to Set Your TP-Link Deco Speed Limit and Control Bandwidth

The Speed Limit feature on TP-Link Deco lets you cap the download and upload bandwidth for individual devices connected to your Deco network. This is useful for managing bandwidth fairly across the home — for example, preventing one device from using more than its share during peak hours. Speed Limit is configured through the Deco app on iOS or Android.

Key Takeaways

• The Speed Limit feature on TP-Link Deco allows you to set individual download and upload speed caps for any device connected to the Deco network.
• Speed limits are configured per device through the Deco app: open the Client module, find the device, tap Speed Limit, enable it, and set the desired speeds.
• Download and upload speeds can be limited independently.
• If the preset speed options do not meet your needs, the Deco app lets you enter a custom speed.
