Currently I'm on a 150-175mbps plan with comcast, sb6183, living in a single story home almost 2k sq ft. Current setup is 3 used orbis (one is the router, two are the satellites), and I have a additional orbi router and extra satellite I'm not using as all (for backup incase one fails). All in all cost was $55 (factoring in gas and misc cost to get them).
Two weeks ago i ran into a guy that sold me his apple setup for $55 (it was a extreme base, and 3x airport express base stations, and I cant think of the name of the other device that looks like a extreme base station but it stores files (I believe 2tb time capsule). No cords were included though.
Yesterday I found a new ac 5300 for $40 flat, and I used to have the 3100 rt but sold it.
My questions is, with the ax router era coming soon, is it better to keep the orbi, or sell the it and go asus (asus 5300 + go buy another 3100 to make a mesh network), or go apple? Would love to hear your thoughts?
