Mesh systems are garbage.
As most people said, it's probably user error. I use Asus ET8s, have 3 nodes all connected wirelessly to the main router with 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz triband single SSID.

Is there a way to connect modem here and router somewhere else with coax
Just get a cable modem and then buy a separate wireless router with a 2nd node. I do this currently until I run Ethernet to a room that I want a hardline connection in. I get about 750 Mbps down but would get a full 1Gbps down with hardline. Its close enough. I use Asus ET8 wireless mesh nodes.
