I currently have an Orbi AC2200 for my townhouse. I’m thinking about getting a new mesh router. With my current Orbi, it feels like it struggles to reach through floors and walls. I was wondering what mesh routers would be good for this type of situation?

​

I was looking into the Asus ZenWifi XT8 and Eero 6E. The main questions I had were:

- How much does wifi 6e really add in comparison to Wifi 6? The added spectrum seems good for potential interference and distortion.

- Has anyone had any experience with these mesh routers inside a vertical house with lots of walls and floors?

Thank you in advance!

    Thanks for the advice! Your post was the first time I had heard of converting coaxial cables into ethernet. Do you mean by MOCA adapters? I looked into it a little bit and still a little unsure about how it works. I currently have a cable modem connected to one Orbi on the second floor. There is another coaxial cable on the third floor. Can I simply just buy a MOCA adapter and then connect an Orbi router via ethernet on that floor?
