Highly suggest and recommend you do a comparison to Ubiquiti's - Amplifi HD mesh wifi router. 

Guaranteed it will preform better.

Its cheeper, supports AC 1300, and uses a separate link backbone from router to mesh point. 

LOVE MINE!!

We've requested this from Amplifi and will report on it as soon as we have it.

Happy to see all kinds of info and comparisons on 'all' mesh systems.

Same request for Portal mesh router. I'm extremely pleased with it and I'm curious to find out how it compares with the competition. I heard your coverage of the eero in the podcast and... Sounds like the Portal would trounce it.

I just bought the Orbi. And let me tell you good people, on a wireless iMac 5K w/a 150Mbps Xfinity connection, from Florida to Georgia, just oh my goodness!
