Update - I purchased a TP Link mesh system, and it works fine. The Netgear system was a giant waste of money.

afThis is about the MK63-100NAS (Nighthawk Mesh 6) purchased from Costco. Netgear's list doesn't include it so I had to put in some router - the closest was EX7700.
I have been a Netgear fan for 2 decades, but that is coming to an end. I have the same problem - watching TV over IP, picture freezes every so often. When I use a Netgear 7900, I have to disable QoS to get it to work without freezing. When I use a Medialink router, it just works. Unfortunately, I need a mesh system to avoid running a Cat 6 cable over the carpet.
What is shocking is that such a product has been released to market. Why didn't QA catch it? And why doesn't your community forum list the Costco router? I'd rather use Netgear over TP Link, but have to find an alternate. I have not yet tried Netgear support - I will update this after I do.
