I'm fed up with my prese t system of wifi extenders and aÂ* thinking
about a mesh system. I don't need high speed for gaming etc so do I
need to go for the more expensive tri band offers or would dual band
AC1200 be ok. The BT mini looks adequate but are there any catches?

Might not CAT5Â* cable be cheaper?

not easy to run a tablet from CAT5

well there you go. ditch the tablet!


Only a fool would do that when its so easy and
cheap to put an access point on the CAT5.

The sort of fool who is too stupid to even
answer an incoming call on a mobile phone.


The problem with multiple access points is that if you move around
roaming between them is a total pain. Devices seem to "stick" on a slow
AP. Total Pain.
