If you want a mesh router for your house, buy the Tenda Nova MW6. I got tired of multiple routers and SSIDs and extenders. Be careful as some of the “mesh” products marketed over the past year are really just powerful extenders.Broad brush, the advantage of a mesh system is that you can more effectively use the 5 Ghz band to get stronger/faster throughput (over somewhat shorter distances) compared to the 2.4 Ghz (farther/weaker throughput/noisier “Wild West of WiFi”) band.I bought the Nova MW6 Mesh Router from Amazon. My review would have been 1 star. The Tenda product support team was superb and efficient in helping me to overcome a problem. (The problem I experienced may be common in the US so I explain it below.)For $200, Amazon ships. The product is 3 mesh nodes in an elegant box. The product delivers an elegant solution:• 802.11r (fast roaming) and 802.11v (as well as 802.11 b/g/n/a/c• Dual bands, broadcasting simultaneously in the 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz bands• You set up with an iOS app or Android app.• The suggestion is to keep nodes no more than 45 feet apart. However, I have 2 nodes that are at least 70 feet from each other. YMMV.• 3 nodes, not 2.• If you have a truly huge house, buy more sets of 3 for less than the other alternatives. (3 was enough for me.)I believe that Tenda’s Nova MW6 product also supports Ethernet backhaul, but I am not sure that has been built yet into the app.You need the app to set up main node and satellite nodes. However, you do not need to create a cloud account with Tenda to set up the mesh network. I am not sure in December 2017 you can configure from Web GUI by just plugging Ethernet cable into the Nova.The problem I ran into was that, because of a restriction by Comcast, Tenda’s Nova MW6 did not work easily when plugged directly into the cable modem. Tenda support recommended that I instead plug the nova into my old router. The mesh system from Tenda now works behind my old router and broadcasts to the other 2 nodes (also connected to each other). Once I plugged directly into my old router, it took 10 minutes to setup. (Could have been 2 minutes but I use extremely long passwords.) My main knock is that I wish the option to plug into my old router had been explained as a setup option in the quickstart guide.The only other knock I might have would be that there is only 1 more LAN port from the main node. If you need more LAN ports for wired Ethernet at your main node (near your broadband connection), you need add an Ethernet switch OR . . . . install by plugging into your old router.)I disagree with the reviews posted here about lack of support from Tenda. My experience was different. Tenda was all over trying to support and truly patient. Maybe Tenda has amped up its support so those reviews are an artifact of the past? In my case, Tenda’s support was super responsive and ultimately effectiveHere are 2 videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-2hs05ZqKA and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW02nXksDeIIf you want to move toward efficient deployment of a mesh (where the remote nodes connect to each other) versus star pattern system, Tenda Nova MW6 is a compelling choice. The price is about half of the Netgear Orbi (does not yet support Ethernet backhaul), Google Wifi (that sucks all your data), or Linksys Velop. Compared to Zyxel Multy X, you get 3 nodes and not 2. I am not sure D-Link has a true mesh (nodes connect to each other) product yet. Luma may not support Ethernet backhaul. I had never heard of Milo, but it appears to just be an extender (“connect wirelessly from the edges of your existing network”). The price of the Tenda Nova MW6 is slightly cheaper than the TP-Link Deco set of 3 nodes.If you are installing a mesh WiFi in your house, consider Tenda Nova MW6.

Wow! Just wow! I'm 57 years old, worked in IT for 35 years, always tried to have the very best home router. I was running the Cisco/Linksys EA9500 which is huge and highly configurable. Despite having 8 antennas, my wife complained that her cell phone would sometimes drop the wi-fi signal and we saw several times where the router dropped the connection, or it simply stuttered, to my (Netgear) wireless bridge which connects up all of my A/V equipment (HT receiver, Xbox One, PS4, Nvidea Shield, Amazon FireTV, etc.). I'd read a lot about mesh systems and this Tenda Nova seemed to score highly as compared to the major brands,and not wanting to invest a lot in this new tech, I decided that this time price _was_ a factor. So, for less than $150 I bought the three unit mesh system. Installed the main cube on the second floor of my (three-story) home, the second cube in my Family Room on the first floor and the third cube in a bedroom on the third floor. I carefully kept all of the wrappings because I was pretty sure that for this cheap price it probably would not work well and I'd have to return it. Much to my TOTAL AMAZEMENT those three little cubes covered the whole house (three stories, 2500 square feet). Wireless N devices were showing maxed-out at 300mbps and wireless AC devices were showing around 433Mbps. Now my house has a lot of devices, probably close to 50. The main cube is attached to a 24-port gigabit switch in which all 24 ports are occupied and so far it's handling all of the traffic - again AMAZING. The only downside that I've seen is the QoS is broken and DNS is also broken because you cannot manually enter a preferred DNS, the fields are all there to do so but it won't let you enter the addresses into the fields. (manufacturer says new firmware is on the way) to address the QoS problem and more importantly due to the simple setup I really don't have any insight into how the devices handle security (SPI or firewall features??). The setup app gives you enough info to setup the system and make some popular changes (PnP, DHCP, DNS, etc.) but no firewall or security features that I could find. I'm hoping that the next revision of firmware will address some of these issues, but from a guy who spent hours configuring the Cisco EA9500 just to get it to recognize all of my equipment, I was up-and-running within minutes of installing the Tenda Nova system. That all being said, I'm sending it back, the total lack of security features and controls really bothers me. The Asus Lyra Trio has very robust security, some of the best and cost about $120 more, $120 which I think is well worth the investment for the added security.
