Model: Archer C5400X  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.2

Hi, I replaced an Orbi (RBR40) + Satellite (RBR30) in a small house due to capacity limitations, +/- 50 devices connected. These include an IP camera system, gaming consoles, laptops, 4K smart TVs, etc., spread around on the house. I got advice from the hardware store to replace the system with an Archer C5400X, which is supposed to have a much better range and capacity than the Orbi system. In general, the whole network performance improved, and the Archer system is never above 35% of usage on any of the four processors. Nevertheless, the WIFI network coverage is shorter, and now I have two blind spots on the house. Can you help me to identify the best WIFI extensor for the Archer? Is the Archer compatible with OneMesh extensors?

These are OneMesh capable devices. Unfortunately C5400X is not one of them.

The good news is that when you're choosing a RE, you're not restricted by this list and can choose whichever you like.

@terziyski it's a shame such an expensive router underperforming to a 5-year NETGEAR entry level router system.

I know my c5400x has an outdated firmware. For an expensive router we get such a bad support from tp link. I don't think I will buy from them after this.
