if ur only like 20ft away id probly stick with the single router first, mesh can add a lil latency sometimes esp without wired backhaul. maybe try moving the rs3000 around a bit before spending extra cash
Thanks yeah it was time to upgrade . I picked up a Netgear RS300 to replace it with due to having success with my Nighthawk . Was nice but after 24hrs started having Wi-Fi connection issues with some devices .
Decided to go with Asus next
On 6ghz, at least in the eu. Nothing to write home about, NA probably okey. 2.4(mostly iot now) and 5ghz nothing has really changed recently range wise. The 9300 (the eu equivalent)had some sort of quirk why we couldn't use it in our laptop testing station. But it's not something that would apply to home usage. For the average user it's very overpowered though. And it being a Netgear it will probably come with Netgear issues. So check the web for that.
I recently returned a Netgear Nighthawk RS300 because the UI was quite underwhelming and it lacked isolated vlan capabilities. After some research I replaced it with a Ubiquiti Dream Router 7, which was a lot better, but unlike the RS300, the internal wifi antennas barely cover half my apt, and wiring APs all over the place is not an option.
Are there any consumer/prosumer grade wifi routers with great coverage and isolated vlan capabilities?
Are there any other home network setups I should consider?
What are my options here?
The use case is basically that I'm a paranoid dumb-dumb who don't trust my robot duster (or human guests) on my home network, and my girlfriend needs instagram while she's on the shitter, which is "conveniently" situated on the diametrically opposite side of the apartment from the router.
