    Wired + Mesh Wifi is the best combo. House not wired? Try powerline Ethernet. It does degrade the more you have so I only have it for my computer and PS5.

      That’s what I have. My house is quite long, so I’m guessing my landlord ran a cable from the front wall in the lounge through to the office/bedroom at the back upstairs. As a result, we have two mesh nodes hardwired to the router, then a wireless one in the middle to just fill in any gaps. I’ve never had better wifi.

        Sounds like you might have lead paint or thick cement in the walls.

        I would just add another node using a powerline near your most popular spots. I would limit it to 2 max.
