Which questionable things did he bring up?

Are there any decent routers or DWS that are capable of using DFS channels?

I'd like to know more about the middle 5GHz channels as well. Particularly for use in the USA. I've never seen a device that can properly do middle/DFS 5GHz channels here. Is it illegal? Is it worth trying to find a router/firmware that will do it? Assuming it's legal, of course.

I live a crowded building in the city, so even the 5GHz spectrum is fairly clogged, I'm now on netgear powerline 1200. I...

As I understand it, Velop doesn't deauth clients, Tim was talking about Google WiFi, which uses RSSI-based deauth band steering. Velop uses 802.11k and v steering to just communicate with compatible clients, urging them to switch BSSIDs. Pretty much no common consumer client supports this except...

I got my 2-pack a week or so ago and my biggest complaint so far is that the ethernet backhaul feature is broken, and a tech on the phone said the devs knew about it. She volunteered this information immediately, which was nice. Also, I moved my switch to a different node and it broke Velop...
