Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I recently replaced my almost decade old cable modem and wifi router.
Unfortunately, the new wifi router didn't improve the dead zones we have in our house. (The house is a 75-year-old, 2,500 sq ft ranch and the walls are not wifi friendly). I tried adding a wifi extender, but it didn't improve coverage very much. The deal killer was realizing that the extender created another network that you need to switch over to when you go to the other end of the house, and then switch back when you return.
So, now I'm looking into wi-fi mesh systems and am curious to know who has one and what they like or don't like. (For example, my bro-in-law rails against getting a wifi 6 system, claiming that they're not ready for prime time).
Thanks in advance for any input!
