Hello Sifu,
My condo recently installed Time Internet, and I'm new to Time.
It only comes with 1 device which is Huawei HG8145V5 (Modem / Router 2 in 1), and the WiFi coverage a bit bad inside my bedroom. So I plan to buy 2 TP-Link X20 Mesh routers (1 put beside the modem/router, another put inside my room.
But I've heard from my colleague (not sure how accurate is that) Huawei Router / Modem doesn't works very well with TP-Link Mesh routers because Huawei Router dual band WiFi are in 1 SSID and it switch automatically depends on signal strength , but TP-Link router will need to have 2 SSIDs for 2.4GHz and 5GHz. So I not sure should I buy TP-Link Mesh Router or some Huawei Mesh Router. Any suggestion?
Also, can I use Huawei HG8145V5 solely as modem, and add on another TP-Link router like AX73?
This is the router I got from Time
Huawei has it's own mesh you can buy from TIME if you want those togetherMy condo recently installed Time Internet, and I'm new to Time.

Otherwise, the best way is to disable wifi on the huawei (use as modem only) and use only the tplink mesh
Also pretty sure you can merge both 2.4 and 5ghz together on both
If you want to use AX73 also can
So either
Huawei Modem/Router 2 in one + it's mesh nodes
or
Huawei as Modem -> TP-Link Mesh
or
Huawei as Modem -> AX73
