PSA Mesh is fine for a lot of people

It’s not that UniFi is a bad mesh system. It’s that if you’re already resorting to mesh instead of wired backhaul, IMO there are better solutions that are easier to use and cost less. Eero is widely known as basically a completely bulletproof mesh system. High throughput, excellent range, incredibly

Looking for wifi router recommendations - fed up with my Deco mesh system

That is a weak example, mine has been hanging from a closet shelf off the Ethernet cable for 19yrs….well this is the 2nd upgrade AP in the same position. But the assumption that you sugg
