Sky Max Hub or 3rd party mesch

Sky Q, 1x mini and SR203 router, no boosters. The wireless signal is unpredictable at best and we live in average size house. 2 dead zones where wireless coverage is very poor. Currently using Powerline to provide internet to the dead zones.

Option 1 – Sky Max Hub + one/two Sky WiFi Pods

I appreciate that extenders are not wifi6, but a stable connection is more important than speed.

Option 2 – Asus XT8 or Deco XE75 Pro

I have already turned off the wireless signal on the Q box and mini. I have direct ethernet from router to the Q box and Powerline from the mini. Q box is fine, but the connection to the mini is around 17-20 Mbits

I don’t know if the Sky Max Hub + WiFi pod is going to provide better wireless coverage than the existing SR203 router.?

@mitchell_paul_5

Are you full fibre or part fibre?

My leaning would be asus xt8 as main router and a few extra mesh nodes directly plugged into the full fibre ont

I don't believe the max of 3 wifi 5 pods can compete with asus wifi 6 triband capabilities
