" ... Providing WiFi coverage throughout a very large, three story historic building is a real challenge. ... I like that the units communicate with each other through a separate out of band back channel, freeing normal WiFi channel bandwidth for doing the work we bought the system to do. ... "

" ... Our house is 4600 square ft we bought a router and 3 satellites and everything works amazing! ... "
" ... Range is awesome. ... "
" ... But what can I say for an inexpensive mesh network? ... "
" ... I changed the default wlan1 SSID over to my old one and all of my devices attached without issue. ... I used to have 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz SSIDs and rather than set up wlan2 or wlan3 to the old 5Ghz SSID I just moved the devices over to the wlan1 name. ... Network throughput is terrific with very little drop-off compared to dirt connection to the router and the signal and speed stay consistent across the building. ... "
