How big is your house, what is it made of, how fast is your service, how many users in the house?

Are you an advanced user, or set-and-forget type?

Hi,

Thanks for reply,

- How big is your house - 150 Square Meter / 1610 Square Feet

- what is it made of - concrete and blocks

- how fast is your service - 1000 Mbps Down/100 Mbps Up

- how many users in the house - ~20+-

- Are you an advanced user, or set-and-forget type - I don't care to setup and change values from time to time, but I prefer not to works this all the time :)

I tried to show this on the Roborock's map (Sorry for the hebrew),

All the 3 routers/mesh will be connect with cables (via Switch)

Regards.

With that I’d go with something like the Deco X20. They are affordable and support wired backhaul. They are easy to install and are very hands off. It is easy to add more nodes.

Only two radios within each unit, but you won’t have the mesh wireless backhaul “using up” the 3rd radio.

[–] HavivMuc@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Just curious, why do you choose Deco X20?

Yes it's affordable, but they also "weak" for performance no?

Today I have at Router 1 - ASUS GT-AX6000

And in Router 3 - ASUS TUF-AX5400

The Router 3 is in "mamad" room, if I close the door, I don't have WIFI outside this room.

Today I don't have WIFI in the room where Router 2 need to be.

I've been using the Deco in my 2 story house for at least 3 years and have had zero issues
