Hello everyone,
just got M500 to the house but advised that the WiFi is struggling to get around.
can anyone advise on a suitable mesh network, have seen Netgear Orbi or Blackhawk. Or indeed anyone selling one?!

Like asking "what car should I get ?" 😎
Depends on your budget and requirements?
What will you be connecting to it - doing what?
And the size/layout/construction materials of your property?
Do you need external coverage?
Do you want wifi 6?
Will you want tri-band to reduce backhaul - to maintain top speeds?

Hi @jbrennand,
thanks for replying. Main purpose is for 2x Home working, 1x is a power user (Graphics)
alos have 3xHd tv, 4x iPhones, games console, 4x Echos,
looking for Tri band ideally and WiFi 6 to keep up to date WiFi. Only external coverage is to the garden, possibly garage but can get a satellite for there.

Depends on the budget - the Netgear Orbi's tick all the boxes at £500 for the 3-pack.

Router unit has 4 ethernet ports and 2 each also on the satellites to hard wire devices as well
