Orbi Setup with Cable drop upstairs far end of home (2650) Sqft

So the Orbi isn't magic? That is certainly comforting to know as I had assumed it would make me coffee too. I have used several Mesh solutions recently and been fairly disappointed by their ability to communicate between nodes and I was asking if the Orbi might be better at communicating in this rather less-than-optimal situation. I thought I explained my situational limitations with power and placement options and that I had not had success with other mesh products pretty clearly and that I wondered if Orbi might do better?

 Again, I am asking if anyone that has this system had a similar situation and found that the Orbi performed better in that circumstance. The signal is so-so under the stairs with R6300 and it covers the entire house, it just doesn't cover it well,given its location, which again, I thought I explained in the original post. Enter 5G and the coverage is reduced from there. That so-so signal seems to be causing the mesh routers some problem that prohibits reliable function.  I am considering trying the AmpliFi system as that has the direct to outlet sat's which really appeals to me. 

I have considered paying to have the drop channeled into the other upstairs office or the catwalk over the main Living area or just doing it myself, but obviously I keep hoping that someone will come up with a better router or solution that will save me having to get in the attic and run wires.

I don't know, the Orbi really sounded like it might be a good fit, but you have convinced me otherwise with revelation that it doesn't perform magic and all. :mantongue:

Thanks. AmpliFi sounds like the next choice.
