cantdrv, I did a ton of research on mesh systems and at the end of the day couldn't find any good way to predict which brand would work "best" for me, but had confidence that any major brand would work "okay". Just pick one, on aesthetics or price or whatever. They are not that expensive, you can always add nodes/satellites or switch brands.

Mesh systems really changed the game. Before that I had to cobble together power-line transmitters, multiple AirPoints, etc. It worked fine but needed constant attention. I need to pay attention to my Orbi system maybe once every two years, and then it is usually because someone moved or unplugged a unit.
