It has been a few years since we last rounded up the best mesh WiFi options in one go with our Ultimate Mesh WiFi Shootout. Until recently, the models we tested then were still worth considering. But WiFi 6 is starting to mature, and now there are some valid mesh choices that use the new wireless standard. So we thought we would put four of the best WiFi 6 mesh systems through their paces, to help you choose your next home wireless networking upgrade.
For standalone devices, WiFi 6 still feels more like future proofing than a necessity. But for mesh WiFi it makes a lot more sense, acting as the high-performance wireless backbone between the main router and its satellites. In this test we bring together the latest mainstream WiFi 6 mesh kits from NETGEAR, BT, tp-link and ASUS. Prices range from under £300 to over £600, with two or three devices in each bundle.
