Amazon's eero 6+ is, in our experience, an affordable Wi-Fi 6 mesh system for homes of all sizes. In our Amazon eero 6+ review, we found this system was fast, easy to use, and offered a clear improvement over the earlier eero 6, and proving very good value for money, particularly if you need a wide-ranging mesh for a larger home.

A strong choice for multi-room network coverage, the tri-band Linksys Velop covers areas of up to 6,000 sq ft and, depending on your ISP, handles speeds up to 2.2Gbps. However, it’s only Wi-Fi 5, rather than the faster Wi-Fi 6. When we ran our Linksys Velop review, we noticed you had to experiment with node (or satellite) placement to get the best signals. It’s a simple router that delivers decent speeds.
Save £65 Mercusys is the budget brand of TP-Link. The Halo H60 is its halo product, a triple-pack mesh that can cover up to 6,000 square feet and connect to 100 devices.

The lack of Ethernet ports for wired connections as well as more advanced features in the Orbi app might turn off experienced users as well.

With excellent security features to boot, this is a fantastic choice if you’re looking at the best mesh Wi-Fi systems on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
FAQs
What is a mesh Wi-Fi system?
A mesh Wi-Fi system is a way to expand the signal strength of a single router by adding in a network of interconnected nodes (often called 'satellites') which boost the signal strength around your home or business.
This string of satellites can help elimiate Wi-Fi deadspots or areas of weaker signal, with your devices connecting to the node that offers the strongest signal as you move around without impacting your internet connection.
For smaller homes, a single router is generally strong enough, but for those fortunate to have more rooms or a large office, the best mesh Wi-Fi systems can help keep you online wherever you go.
What is the best mesh Wi-Fi brand for me?
Each brand has its own strengths and weaknesses, with each often catering to a certain use case, price point, or coverage area. It is important to consider these factors when looking for a mesh Wi-Fi deal. Brands such as Google and Amazon focus on ensuring solid connectivity within a home or small office environment.
For those who require faster speeds, such as gamers, content creators, and serial downloaders, Asus has some of the fastest mesh Wi-Fi systems around.
Those looking for a security-oriented option, such as businesses or the privacy-conscious, can rely on TP-Link and Netgear to keep your data safe.
