TP Link Deco 6e and Deco 7 have worked very well for us in two homes. The Deco app is very intuitive and easy to use. One of them (Deco 6e) has 26 components on it. This link is to a post I made a few days ago about a feature to look for when shopping for mesh WiFi systems. Lots of dissenting opinions about the advice. But the indisputable fact is that I had connection issues with five components and the ability to manually select the WiFi band fixed them and they stayed fixed. Good luck! https://www.reddit.com/r/sonos/s/L5Owua2okN

Tp-link DECO BE65 Pro is pretty good. I believe that is the DECO equivalent to the tp-link HB610. I used the HB610 as a main router for a while before my ISP upgraded me to the HB810, and now I use the HB610 as a mesh node. The HB810 is equivalent to the tp-link Deco BE85. Works great. I get 1800 Mbps over wireless with the HB810 on a 2 gig fiber plan

Yeah ubiquity did my head in. Their roaming is in experimental and it pushed it to be enabled on AP automatically and caused major problems for a client. Was hoping automatic updates wouldn't be that bad so we could save time and money for the client but there's just constant issues nowadays that we are back to square one in babysitting these devices. Tplink (including omada line) has still been flawless and forgot we had a client on it since we only had to touch it because they wanted another AP in. Use TP-Link at home and the only time I've had to restart it was because we had a crazy power flicker that made it unhappy. But it was just a quick reboot. Wish there was more advanced settings for their home routers but in the end, if your aren't doing crazy homelab stuff they walk over their competitors in the home space

It depends on how many devices you want connected. Straight up, TP-Link is really good for home use, especially if you can cable in a few access points (mesh is fine if you don't need super low latency and have the devices close enough that you don't have a massive performance drop). Most devices really only have a few stable connections and they "switch" between them. It's fast but can be noticeable if two devices are playing a game. Something like TP-Link Deco BE65 Pro would last you a long time, and honestly handle 90% of households without breaking a sweat. I'd stear clear from ubiquity, it's great but you do need to tweak settings, issues with them aren't as straight forward to solve especially if a firmware update is the main cause of issues.

I just bought TP-Link BE11000 3 unit mesh, $365. I have had it for 2 weeks now. No issues, great coverage with router plus one satellite. Highly recommend.

Im using Deco BE11000 as my 2 main nodes (plus a few smaller deco devices to extend to other parts) in an apartment, wifi 6 disabled (as i don't have anything that supports it yet), fast roaming disabled. System works flawlessly and consists of a full Arc Ultra setup, Sonos Amp, Era 100 and several Symfonisk speakers.
