Advice re WiFi Pods vs Mesh
So I recently upgraded to the Volt 1gb package and I'm awaiting the WiFi pod that they are sending out. Over WiFi I am getting around 300mbps in most rooms, though one room was less than 30mbps, hence the pod.
However, I have a mesh system that I've not yet set up, and I'm wondering if it is worth using still or if the router + WiFi pod will be better. I think the mesh is Linksys Velop Ac1300. The one thing I've noticed since I got the new 5.0 router is that it has a smart switching feature to be between 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands. I think I would lose this feature with my mesh system as it is only a basic setup with 3 nodes.
What would you all advise? How good are the pods? Thanks in advance.
