QUOTE(FnLockSpace @ Feb 22 2024, 04:05 PM)
Now I am using 3 D link R15 mesh router. 1 of them I set up as router. 2 of the mesh as extender.
I stay in a 3 storey house when I use the mesh, every corner of my house I get full bar but my internet speed dropped a lot.
Do I need to add more mesh to gain internet speed? I'm using unifi 100mbps. Please advice.

From best to worst in Mesh system (connecting from main to node):

1) LAN Cable / Wired backhaul
2) Wireless through Third band which also known as Tri-Band (Dedicated 5ghz[2] or 6ghz on WiFi 6E/7 models)
3) Wireless through Second band - Dual-Band (using 5ghz[1] as backhaul) and must place in open or direct area for best result

Basically Node (wireless backhaul here as example) is for you to expand your Wi-Fi connection.

Even you see it's full bar WiFi signal in the area of Node2 doesnt mean the internet strength of that node is full speed cause the jump between Main to Node through wireless already cut down the speed (but not wifibar cause you connecting to Node2 directly)
