    If having "wifi" problems.

    Run some cat 6 buy ubiuiti AP's

    Everything else is a waste of time and money

    Yes if you are gaming, if you are simply looking for decent wifi to do calls etc around the house it is over the top.....the mesh wifi works perfect in that situation

    Over the top in what way?

    The cost is practically the same as similar items posted.

    I'm not understanding why 100+ per unit is working out so much "over the top" expense for basically enterprise grade wireless

    So we have gone all this way to get back to what I posted originally


    If you are gaming etc then worth investing, if not then other mesh wifi is perfect for 130 odd quid


    P.S. try running a bit of cable in that ceiling :-) might take longer than 20 mins ;)

    No bother at all.

    They can also go on walls etc. so you could run the cable outside the house and come in on the wall etc

    I don't game very often but I've had enough shiote wifi over the years.

    I guess it also depends on the speed of your connection and local requirements are. e.g fast internal transfers etc.

    After trying many I just wouldn't waste time or money on anyting else.

    Especially if you have Siro/FTTH

    I seen somewhere yesterday that if you spend £200 on Amazon you get a £20 voucher, spend £100 and get a £10 voucher etc. I cant find any word of it now, anyone know if this still applies?

    I've read that that deal is UK customers only. Anyone here actually get it?
