eero (Amazon) - eero 6+

Mesh networking is the key. We have Sonic Fiber and Eero nodes around the house and it's awesome.

Yeah... the literal plug n play is worth a lot unless you're doing large data xfer for work or something. The second hand Eero repeaters are so cheap you can sprinkle them liberally too

Eero does 500mbps over WiFi, it’s hands down one of the best and easiest to manage. After 6 years of using it for all my security cameras and IoT it’s basically pointless to run CAT cable throughout a house in today’s world. Most people don’t need Gig network running throughout a house, it’s irrelevant Anyone saying don’t do mesh is honestly an idiot. Most probably live in an apartment or small house or just have know clue what you need vs what you want. I have 3 wireless cameras on my deck, 2 on my garage, one on my door, 2 inside my home. Including the other random 70 devices throughout my basement (movie room), office (2nd floor) in a 3500sqft home and have literally zero issues, from stream live security streams, streaming movies, gaming doesn’t matter Zero reason to not have a mesh setup in 95% of setups… plan and simple Especially when you can do outdoor mesh setups with companies like Ubiquity but unless you need outdoor internet to throw it to a barn or something… most get the job done just fine, like eero

On an android phone, you can download am app called WifiAnalyzer, it has a white wifi symbol and a green background. Itll tell you how many networks are in your area and should give an idea of if this is truly the wifi going out or just being talked over. Id also say to go into the routers gui and split the 2.4/5g bands and see if one gives better signal than the other, as most modern routers mesh them together via "smart connect" or similar language. A factory reset of the router is a last resort before simply buying a new one, as you don't really mechanically fix components in consumer routers anymore, they're too cheap. I like tp-links Archer series for a new simple router, and suggest Amazon's EERO if you want to get a meshed routing system for better coverage

I'd go with [Eero](https://productbible.com/product/amazon-eero-6-mesh-wifi-system). I'm usually terrible with networking related stuff, but this one was a breeze to setup.

Eero mesh with the outdoor unit on the main house probably.

Get eero or Tplink, you'll be fine. I went through 2 Google mesh systems and now leave them alone. BTW you don't need the wifi 7 or even 6E. Save some money unless you have Gigabit internet, then go crazy.

We have a basic ASUS router with eero mesh, but in-office WiFi is still better. That’s one of the actual upsides of 3-4 day RTO.

Re-iterating what others have stated. They work great when you hardware each unit. I am not a fan of wireless backhaul. In theory it should work, but in reality I find them lacking. I have recently done a Deco install and an Eero install, hardwiring all units for both. It is sometimes cheaper to do it this way than buying APs to wire in. Just remember to have the "Main" mesh unit first in the chain. I usually go Internet Modem -> First Mesh Unit -> switch -> satellites.

Spectrum customer here. I use the modem they supply and an eero mesh WiFi system. Very happy family with good and reliable WiFi throughout the house.
