Ubiquiti is good.. But wouldn't call them the best mesh...the Asus BQ16 would likely outperform any ubiquiti system that has a wireless backhaul.

Amplifi Alien has quite good reviews and reputation, but it's quite expensive for even a two-node system. I prefer not to buy systems with one router + one satellite

Lots of things to be answered before you pick. 1. How large is your home? (SF) 2. Single Story or 2 story? 3. How far from your office will your modem be? 4. Where do the current dead spots exist? 5.

Just to be clear here, several points: * **Firmware favors direct connection.** If you have deployed mesh-capable devices (not using long-range mode), the firmware will strongly favor a direct conne

Is the system connecting with normal range zwave or long-range z wave? If they are in long range mode, they won't ever mesh

Ubiquiti once again is a brand and if you choose the wrong models, then you are going to be blindly saying Ubiquiti is rubbish...
