Linksys Releases Dual-Band Version Of Velop Home Mesh Wi-Fi System
Holy smokes what a step backwards. I expected some performance loss from the tri band Velop but not this much. I hate this Wi-Fi system infancy stage. With Netgear's firmware issues, Linksys' high price and now poor performance, it doesn't seem like anyone will offer a complete solution...- Seventh

Linksys Releases Dual-Band Version Of Velop Home Mesh Wi-Fi System
Yeah I gotcha, I'm just saying in regards to your "mesh performance won't be great" that the system might still work for me with a wired backhaul. Anyhow, I'm looking forward to your review. Your reviews are well put together and the source I trust.- Seventh

Linksys Releases Dual-Band Version Of Velop Home Mesh Wi-Fi System
That’s great news. Not long ago I wired my house with Ethernet drops in most rooms, so the wireless backhaul capacity is off little concern to me.

Extremely Confused and looking for some advice on a WIFI/ethernet system
First off, I appreciate the feedback. The advice pretty much echoes what is rattling around in my head, ie there is not one perfect solution and each system will have trade-offs. I really need to think hard about the salient features I'll be looking for in the new system. #1 is whole house...- Seventh

Extremely Confused and looking for some advice on a WIFI/ethernet system
I thought I had this all figured out but I'm starting to have some doubts in my plans and I am looking for some more experienced advice. A few weeks ago, my wife and I decided to renovate our bonus room and repurpose it into a home theater/play room for my kid. I thought this would be a...- Seventh
