Hi
I have Virgin BB and if my wifi app is to be believed I get speeds of over 800mbps when close to the router.
My house is spread over 3 floors and is over 3800 sq/ft, and has quite a few solid walls. The virgin router has to be downstairs by the front of the house because that's where the cable comes in.
I have cat5e ethernet distributed to quite a few rooms, about 6.
Wifi coverage was a big issue so I plugged a Linksys router into one of the ethernet sockets upstairs towards the back of the house.
This has provided a solution of sorts but there are still issues. There are still a few spots in the house where there is no decent signal, there are two separate networks and devices don't automatically flip from a weaker to stronger as you move through the house.
With my sonos some rooms are on one network and some on another which is a real pain.
I'm assuming that a whole house mesh system would solve all these problems and not introduce any new ones?
Or since I have wired ethernet sockets in many rooms is there a different solution that would be better?
Thank you?
