Background: I am migrating from a Gen 1 Google WiFi mesh router and pulled the trigger and bought this router on prime day. TP-Link Tri-Band BE19000 WiFi 7 Router (Archer BE800) - https://a.co/d/en9OlMz
Huge upgrade, outside a few spots in my house where it’s pretty spotty. I cannot easily move the router due to not having a basement, nor approval from the wife to break through a bunch of walls to wire it up how I want it.
So the question is… Do I get the BE11000 range extender that is currently $300
Or
TP-Link Tri-Band BE9300 WiFi 7 Router Archer BE550 - https://a.co/d/bUat5G4 which is currently $250. The speed difference isn’t a deal breaker for me on the other devices. My computers are hard-line and happy next to the router.
Or do I just say screw it and return it and go back to a mesh system.
I am currently unable to connect the second node to a wired connection, but I have a plan on getting that done this coming year once I get wife buy-in…
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!
