In the UK, super simple wifi only, have Sky Broad Band but have abandoned their router and wifi mesh completely. We have 5 of the BT Whole Home mesh devices, tried to wire the SkyQ tv boxes into them so we could turn off the Sky Wifi and discovered a bug where the Sky Router would basically kick the BT device of the network if wired to a SkyQ box. Ultimately bought a TPLink Router just for broadband and dumps the Sky one, works brilliantly now. So our setup:
TP-Link TD-W9970 Router
5 x BT Whole Home Wifi (one wired to router, two wired to the SkyQ boxes)
Went with BT Whole Home Wifi as it was cheaper than the other mesh networks and had good enough reviews.
We have actually kept the Wifi on the TP-Link router turned on as an additional network (hadn't planed to) as we had connection issues between the BT system and a Natatmo Indoor Camera, it would constantly disconnect/reconnect to the network.
