Wired wifi mesh or Ethernet all over would be my prescription. You basically have Faraday cages in every room right now!
- kstrauser 1y agoI’ve strung CAT 6e from one end of the house to the other to link 2 of them. The 3rd’s in a place not amenable to cabling without way more effort than I’m up for, but it’s close enough to one of them that they mesh alright.
- esseph 1y agoEthernet/fiber is far better in that scenario. You may even have better luck using existing coax and moca adapters than wifi in those scenarios.
