I've posted previously about getting a third node for my Asus ZenWifi XT8 network. (LSS: you CAN buy just one). My question now is whether I should. I have roughly 1750 sq ft. of Living Space and 2 nodes. From the literature, it *seems* like a single node should cover the whole house but it doesn't seem to do that well. I'm guessing it's simply the layout and the walls are blocking the signal. Hence, the second node. Now I'm trying to expand a little into the backyard...no signal at all.
That said, I'm reading that you can have too many nodes. How would I judge whether adding a third node would actually degrade performance? I don't want to go to the expense only to discover it was a mistake.
