I'm currently running a 4 node Deco M9 network. It's been starting to act flakey (dropping connections, slow speeds until reset) and I'm thinking it's time to upgrade. I've been looking at WiFi 6E networks. Currently the Wyze AXE5400 is on sale; I can get 4 nodes on the 'zon for $280. PC Mag gave it a good review, but it doesn't have a dedicated backhaul channel like the Deco. Alternatively, I can get 4 Deco AXE5400 nodes for $400, which does have a dedicated backhaul. I don't mind spending the extra cash, but only if I'll notice a difference. We don't do a lot of gaming here but we do a lot of streaming and have a lot of smart devices, and two of us work from home. Reliability is super important. I have a separate router to handle firewall and DHCP duties, so whatever I buy will be acting strictly as an access point.
Thoughts?
