I’ve an unusual layout in my house and WiFi placed in the middle of the home would not reach either side of the long narrow floor plan. I tried various mesh options including ubiquitis prosumer amplifi but that proved very unreliable. Before going full enterprise grade I tried the Linksys Velop WiFi 6 that has 2 Access Points. It has been tremendous thus far. I have WiFi well out into my yard(live in country area on acreage) and aside from occasional hangs the system has been stable and covers the entire home.
- dont__panic 6y agoFor me, 2.4 ghz has worked very, very well for penetrating pesky walls full of HVAC/washer/dryer/giant metal beams. I keep my office devices either plugged into ethernet or connected to 5 ghz where they're in clear view of my router. Especially if you're not right on top of other apartments or anything and don't require >500mbps download speeds, any decent router should serve you well on the 2.4 band.
