Hi Sifuz,

Currently using Archer C5v (stock router from Maxis). Reception at upper floors not great, so looking to either upgrade router or change to wifi mesh. Appreciate your advice.

House type: Landed
Size of house: 3 storey
Features required: improve connection at ypper floors
Number of devices connected to WiFi: 4 HP, 1 android tv (mainly for Netflix), 4 computers (frequently uses Zoom, VPN)
Internet Speed: Maxis 30 Mbps (looking to upgrade to 100Mbps)
Budget: 1k

I wouldn't suggest single router setup for 3 storey houses. Wifi 5 mesh unit are quite adequate for 100Mbps. I would suggest 2 unit of TP-Link Deco M4 or maybe 3 unit if your house layout aren't conducive for wifi penetration.

Thanks for the advise. Will look for good deals for Deco M4.
