Guest Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Anyone here use a mesh network for home WiFi? Any recommendations at tge budget end? Vaguely looking at the tp link s7 twin pack. It seems companies make 900 different versions with hardly any seeming difference and my will to live quickly erodes when looking at the details.

Fiddlesticks Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 (edited) Here at Fiddlesticks towers, we set the cable company router in modem only mode, and use an Asus gaming router similar to an RT-AX88U for wifi (I'll update the actual model when I get home). You can daisy chain a second one if needed, but ours goes three floors up and through two solid brick walls, so no need. Update: Ours is an RT-AC88U - but they look pretty similar.

keith1200rs Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I've been using the Tp-link X20 for a while now and they work brilliantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonio Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Got a Tenda Nova MW6-3. Was easy to set up, hasn't needed any fiddling with since. And it gets the wifi all the way into the garage, a nice plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I have these https://www.currys.co.uk/products/tplink-deco-x20-whole-home-wifi-system-triple-pack-10222658.html On in the living room one upstairs and one in the garage this gives me a good connection all through the house to the front garden and in to the back garden there is no dead spots within my boundary and it does extend further than that The furthest each one is away from each other is 12 metres or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Like Fiddlesticks the Virgin box is in modem mode as the security is poor. With that in mind I have the Amplifi Gamers edition, but for normal use I'd recommend the Amplifi-HD https://amplifi.com/amplifi-hd You get to tweek the settings per device for either normal, throughput or gaming.
