Sorry, Frank, I was going for humor. Their’s is an open plan living room and dining and kitchen. 15 feet doesn’t get you into any of the bedrooms where the kids best should be studying. I don’t care what they say, 15 feet from the box is all one reliably gets. Nick Nicholas Thomps

Another vote for Eero. Three units worked for me when in Santa Fe in a house with some interior adobe walls. Here in NC in a “stick house”, it is probably overkill but still nice. The only downside that I know of for Eero is that it needs internet access for its configuration, so it’s not very
