What do you recommend as an alternative?

IMO, the consumer grade mesh systems are basically commodities at this point.

Wire still wins - especially for backhauls between endpoint. However, it’s really nice being able to stick an AP anywhere you have an outlet to extend the range. I have a few outdoor devices (speakers, lights, TV) that daisy chain though APs while getting just good enough performance for what I need.

The closest alternative is probably tplink omada.

Teltonika also has started to create a similar solution but it is not in the same level just yet.
