So, I'm reading various reviews. CNET and PCmag both have fairly comprehensive reviews.
For some reason they separate routers and MESH systems which I think do the same thing. MESH covers the whole house though. Isn't that the goal 99% of the time? WiFi throughout the house.
Boy these things have gone up. Mine is about 14 years old. It has done well but is dropping signal. The WiFi that comes with my internet does not cover the whole house. So, I'm looking at Mesh more than standard router.

For now I'm leaning towards this one
Asus ZenWiFi AX (XT8)
Anyone else in the market? If so what did you buy?
