New Around Here
Working with a friend with a new home. This is a 2 story 3500sq ft home (1750/fl). Cable modem is located on the second floor in the center of the home. Within reason, money isn't a major issue.
Primary use is internet surfing. Remote VPN into fortune 100 company. Watching netflix/youtube on multiple tv's. Gaming is not a consideration - they are not gamers.
Was thinking of using an AC5300 as primary located with the cable modem in the center of the second floor. I was thinking of using 1 or 2 AC86Us as needed for full mesh coverage.
This was the plan until they said - we use T-Mobile and our reception sucks in the house. Should I reconsider the above configuration and add or substitute T-Mobile AC1900s to facilitate better VOIP for T-Mobile? I realise as delivered the TM routers will not work as mesh routers. Are they better off using the TM routers as delivered and pass on the benefits of AiMesh?
Thanks for any insight you can provide.
