...rather annoying that the model for Nighthawk WiFi 6 Mesh System isnt available in the "Model/recommended-helps community give the best answers" form.... but i already digress.
I just got an MK60 system. 1 MR60 and 2 MS60s.
i will be putting a small unmanaged switch on the output lan connection of the MR60 and connecting both MS60 sattelites with lan cables in order to use the backhaul channel capabilities.
right now all wall are open as we havent started our renovation yet, but eventually these will be in wall and not really changeable.
even if we outgrow these devices and dont need dedicated lan cables for our mesh system down the road, i still think its handy to have some network cabling handy so no biggie.
also, with zero obstacles, what is the optimal distance between router and sattelite?
so what im hoping for is some ballpark suggestions of where i should place the system.
i can from suggestions, buy some cabling, setup the system, then fine tune the palcements from there myself.
i have freedom to place wherever i want.
i am including a rough layout of our house.
its worth noting that the house is only 15' wide and has no walls that run front to back that interfere.
also worth noting that the back yard and basement arent as important, as i would buy more MS60s if needed for extra coverage.
the letters in the pic are for suggestions. so people can suggest which letter to palce a sattelite
also, fiber optic comes in at the second floor, the x is where the modem is, but i can run cable to wherever i want to put router, so it really is a matter of best pattern
any and all suggestions are welcome! please please please!
