Best budget option for mesh wifi with dual band.
I'd go with the TP-Link Deco M5 solid budget mesh, dual-band, easy setup. Covers your size home fine. Wi-Fi 6 is nice, but not a must unless you’ve got a lot of newer devices. Deco M5 (Wi-Fi 5) should be enough.

Mesh network device
I’ve been using TP Link Deco M5 for 4 years. I bought six, three are in my house, one is on my back deck, one is in a garage and one is in an outdoor boathouse. I was able to blanket my whole yard (3 different buildings) in a mesh. The three that are not in the house, have been exposed to outdoor am

Gen 3 - Wifi and wired network at the same time?
I've got Gen3 and used both ethernet ports to connect to switches. Also, was using the wifi for a while too, but found it too weak so now use my old Deco M5 Mesh which seems to be holding up fine at the moment.

TP-Link Deco M5 & M9 Mixed Fleet - Intermittent Connection Failures
If you need that wireless backhaul in the kitchen, I'd arrange them somehow to make sure you get an M9-M9 backhaul. M9-M5 backhaul is not as good. The M5 only has 2 bands and the M9 has 3. Also... the 2.4 ghz bands although less theoretical speed than the 5ghz bands can travel further and through wa

How will I upgrade my router?
I’m not familiar with huawei products, but do you know what the lan Ethernet ports are? If they’re 1 gig ports, you could just disable the wifi on the huawei and hook up any 3rd party access point. A lot of consumer products on the market will probably be all in one routers with wifi built in, but t

Moved into a house with solar barely any info left by previous owner (now with pictures)
Yeah it will remember. The best thing to do is to grab a two pack (or three pack) of tp-link Deco m5 or m7 mesh WiFi jobbers. Set them up with a nice WiFi name ‘fozzie free WiFi’ and make the password ‘your phone!!’ Or something. Then whenever you change your router, you just turn the WiFi off and p

Is Unifi an all or nothing investment?
Not long ago moved from 3x Deco M5s running in AP mode on Cloud Gateway Ultra to 2x AP7 Lites. The WiFi coverage is better on the 2x AP 7 lites, than the 3x Deco m5’s in my 2 storey brick built 4 bed house. One thing to note on the Decos in AP mode is all your WiFi clients will show as wired in the

Questions regarding starting an AT&T Fiber basic home setup with Omada.
I'd buy an ER605v2 ($56) and one EAP610 ($90). Put them both by the AT&T ONT (maybe with the EAP610 up higher) and see if you get enough of an improvement. For less than $150 this will give you enterprise-grade Wi-Fi. This solved the Wi-Fi weak spots in my 2-story home. It is significantly better th
