![]() ![]() You should really only use mesh when you have no other options. There is a lot of overhead in doing this so you lose a lot of speed and you now have 2 wifi signals that can be interfered with. To work properly the repeater/mesh must be placed where is can get good signal from the main router and still send a second signal to the remote room. It most times will be worse than connecting directly to the main router with the wifi in the end device. It will get a crap signal from the main router and then try to repeat it to the end client which tends to damage the signal even more. ![]() Now putting a mesh unit in the same room has the same problem. It is basically a wifi card that is connected via a ethernet cable and it will not function must different than a quality USB wifi nic card. This device will get the same crap signals the wifi radios in your end devices get. ![]() In the remote room it does not do a lot of good to put in a bridge mode.I assume you mean you want to wireless connect to the router. So you need at least one router if the device you purchased is only a modem. Wifi6e is now starting to get more common and this has much more bandwidth on the 6g radio band so it should let us use the 802.11ax encoding to it full potential. For a lot of people there is not a huge difference between 802.11ax and 802.11ac It is very hard to get it to run in 160mhz mode and many devices only support 80mhz. Although there is not a lot of difference in the price anymore I would not get to hung up on wifi6(802.11ax). ![]()
