If it did what it promised, it would solve all of my issues without creating any new ones. After an Hallelujah moment where I nearly heard birds sing, I decided to give it a go. At first glance, I thought it was solely a mesh point for their existing AmpliFi HD router, but turns out it works with existing routers too. I was stuck.That's when I came across Ubiquiti's AmpliFi Mesh Point HD. I looked into repeaters, but it seemed that most (all?) would create an additional network, which goes against having one network for all the gadgets and smart home devices. More electrical outlets being used, more points of failure, and a complete new network setup. (I'm sure I'm not the first one to use a phone in the bathroom.)For a while I thought about upending the whole experiment and switching to a mesh system, but I'd need to keep the VR2600 as a modem and then use one of the mesh points as a router (none of the current mesh systems I've seen have a built-in modem or RJ11 port), plus place an additional mesh point to cover the entire house. So I often find my phones and tablets struggling to get a signal in the master bedroom and bathroom. Needless to say, the 2.4GHz network is being overworked and having trouble reaching the opposite end of the house with several walls in the middle.

I can't make full use of the dual bands because some of my smart home gadgets only support 2.4GHz and if I want to control them locally, I'd have to keep my phones on the 2.4GHz band, which means that my Google Homes have to be on it too, and so on. Most importantly, it had an RJ11 port, which is how our ADSL internet is delivered.But in reality and with several months of use, the situation wasn't completely perfect.

On paper, it seemed to fit the bill with speed, dual-band, guest network, parental controls, and a neat Android app. After a lot of research, I opted for a TP-Link Archer VR2600 that we had to place toward the living room side of the house. This makes the terrible internet situation in Lebanon even more challenging because finding a router system that reaches both ends is tricky.
