AC Mesh Series

UniFi has a great designer tool that will help you figure coverage with the different devices.

If that’s the case get a ubiquiti Unifi system. Gateway plus access points. Best performance per dollar with a wired backhaul

UniFi is the most solid networking platform.

switch to unifi from google mesh. Much happier

Unifi is no easier/harder than Omada. I'd steer clear of Mikrotik for Wifi unless you *really* know what you're doing.

Yeah. You dint need to do anything he said. Unifi is as complex is you want it to be. Using the app to set things up isn't too complex. If you go to thr web interface it can do everything, and can get complex. I like that it gets updates. I've had the same router for about 4 years now and it's got way more features than it did originally. They add all sorts of new stuff every month. It can also run cameras, which work really well and don't require a subscription. Nothing is stored in the cloud.

My mom has eero and I have a big unifi system. Eero is super basic. You can config a few things in the app. More advanced stuff is hidden behind a monthly subscription. It works, but the admin interface is terrible and has fewer features than the isp's free router. If you want to do anything more than have wifi, you'll be disappointed. Unifi can scale from a single wifi for an apartment to a full network, camera, and access control for a large company. Nothing requires a subscription. Yes, unifi is more complex but you can get the basic stuff up pretty easily enough. If you later want to get into complex network stuff, it can do that too. Eero came free from the isp. Beyond that, I wouldn't buy it again. It's way too basic for my needs.

You can build a much more reliable and scalable system for less money with much better components from Unifi. Consumer mesh is a joke.

Unifi by a country mile, and it's not even close.

love the unifi ecosystem and products ... but be careful, an addiction can form and you'll end up with 11 switches, 20 cameras and 10 APs

i'm in the "Mesh works great if you use it right" camp. i use a u6 pro which is wired to my u6 pro in meshed in my home office to devices that don't have WIFI (desk phone, PC, etc...), and a u6 lr+ which is wired to my U6 mesh in my garage which is meshed and have no issues. there's also a U6+ meshed to give better service to another part of the house (i didn't give it AP priority). both my wired AP's are in the basement (front and rear of the house), and both meshed AP's that are in the house are on the second floor. my cameras on the garage, what i do in my home office, and everything else on my network doesn't care what which AP it's on, works for what i need.

I have the same problem. There is form insulation everywhere, I can’t punch new holes in the walls or ceilings. I deployed the In-Wall 6 and Mesh 6s. The in wall in the office and primary bed room. Two Mesh 6s in the living room front of the house. Blanket coverage.
