understand the coverage map is an estimator, but just wanted to get some clarification on these as this is the first time I am using one.
Below is my current coverage map. The AP was defaulted at "HIGH" for Tx power. The red area was huge.
My plan was to put on where you see it on the map in the first picture, and another in the second picture. Sorry, only one EAP245 has shown up so far, waiting for two more (1 goes upstairs).  I plan on putting one up in the Office, and one upstairs.  I am worried my Nest Cameras will have issues connecting on 5ghz.

Right now they are set to HIGH
What worries me are the Nest cameras I have outside. I have two in front (one at the front door, the other on the far right side of the garage door opening).
We also use our phones in the backyard (pool) to manage our music in Sonos, so I have to make sure I get coverage there.
The yellow area after red, is this just weaker signal? Or do I want my areas completely covered in red?

Sorry for not having a full coverage map, my other two SHOULD be in tomorrow, but started to play with this now.

Also, should I be using two seperate SSIDs for 2GHz and 5GHz or just enabled the AP to do a single SSID for both?

So I installed my first one today. I am waiting for my cabling to come in.
Right now, I have it set to HIGH.
I moved the 2gh to channel 1 and the 5ghz to channel 149 based on congestion (lot of close houses in this sub division).

This just does not seem right. Have a look at my wifi analyzer.

I mounted it behind the TV. I do not think I can get up into the ceiling like Trip and I talked about before.
Wife threw a fit when I said I was going to mount to the top of the cubby, so I hid it behind the TV.

Here is what that room looks like:

You can see the red Xs were where I was thinking of placing the EAP245, and I ended up behind the TV.

I feel like the Netgear Nighthawk was stronger.

Here I am standing directly underneath of it. My SSIDs are DonkeyPunch and DonkeyPunch_5G (long story on the names).
If you see any others, they are just my other APs that I have not cleaned up yet.



This is me standing about 20 to 30 feet away, in the kitchen. Nothing between me and the AP besides the TV.

Here I am sitting in my wife's office, where the second AP was supposed to go.



5G in my wife's office

5G in my kitchen



Sitting in the kitchen on my laptop, I only pull down around 54MB on 2g and 200MB on 5G

Am I doing something wrong? Is this normal?
My real concern are my cameras in the front. I was hoping the AP in my wife's office would be able to have them connect on 5G.
