Wi-Fi Router Vs Mesh System: Which Is Best for You?

wired.com Simon Hill 2025-09-29 15:00:00

We all want a good, strong Wi-Fi signal throughout our homes, but figuring out how to achieve it without overspending can be tricky. Even once you’ve decided to replace the router from your internet service provider, do you get a new Wi-Fi router or invest in a mesh system? I covered this briefly in my router buying guide, but I’m going to dive a bit deeper here. I’ve been testing all sorts of home networking gear for years now, so I’ll break down your options, weigh up the pros and cons, and h

Eero Pro 7 Review: Smooth Sailing

wired.com Simon Hill 2025-10-22 11:00:00

Amazon’s Eero mesh range is tough to beat for folks seeking a set-and-forget mesh Wi-Fi system for their home. Simplicity, with a side of smart home support, makes the Eero Pro 7 a compelling prospect. It strikes a nice balance in Eero’s Wi-Fi 7 lineup, offering the faster 6-GHz band and better all-around performance than the entry-level Eero 7, while costing far less than the top-of-the-line Max 7. While I experienced teething troubles with systems like the Max 7 when Wi-Fi 7 was new, my time

NordVPN will discontinue Meshnet on December 1

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-12 21:55:38

NordVPN announced today in a blog post that its Meshnet feature will shut down on December 1. All aspects of Meshnet will stop working on that date, though nothing else about NordVPN will be affected. If you were using Meshnet to connect computers, route web traffic through a personal device or share files, you'll need to find another solution by December. As I mentioned in my NordVPN review , Meshnet was one of the most envelope-pushing features on any VPN, letting users link their devices thr

REI Co-op Base Camp 6 Review: All-Weather, All-Season Family Tent

wired.com Scott Gilbertson 2025-11-17 21:00:00

When my wife and I had kids, one of the first things we did was get a bigger tent. Fifteen years ago, the nicest car camping tent I could find was REI's Kingdom 6. All these years later, that tent is still going strong (a friend is off camping in it right now), but it turned out that we never really needed all that room. I'd happily trade that room for little more strength in stormy weather, which always seem to find me when I'm camping, and a smaller footprint that will fit in more spots. That

Importantly, you can split the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz bands to show as two separate Wi-Fi networks. This is handy, as some smart home devices only operate on the former band. Similarly, there's a mixed mode for WPA2 and WPA3 security. Some devices don't work with the newer WPA3 standard, and some routers force you to choose one or the other, which can lead to issues.

Low WiFi in a large house can be quite frustrating, particularly when your ISP router is not powerful enough to cover all parts of it. Instead of relying on an average box that has a tendency of creating dead spots and lagging connections, it is worth investing in a more powerful system from a trusted brand like TP-Link. One of their best-selling devices, the 3-pack TP-Link Deco AX3000 WiFi 6 mesh system (deco x55) is currently selling at an all-time low price of $149, down from $199 previously
