@Michael_JCWS How is the Ubiquiti working out? I am in the same boat as you, and want to move off the M5/M9 hybrid I have, to the X90, but keep seeing the Ubiquiti offering!

@Michael_JCWS 

I am not looking at the BestBuy offering very favorably.  at almost $160 more for only 1 extra 5GHz radio.

Also the x96 isn't looking very promising as the Wifi 6E 6GHz band appears only to be used for Mesh Traffic, and not device connectivity.  If you are like me and backhaul Ethernet everything (the right way) then it doesnt appear any better than the x90. - on paper.

I was mostly complaining about the lack of consistency and the total bungle of a release strategy.  As an IT leadership professional myself, I would be very upset wtih my Marketing, Engineering, Web developer, Distribution departments.  Failures across the board.  But maybe they have their reasons...  (*cough* CES awards *cough*)

Perhaps someone else on the forums can help us clarify.

@Iconic The UDM is awesome, haven't looked back, does everything I need and gives me a great speed throughout the house. Importantly I can configure the channels allowing a reduction in interference

Hi All,

I'm currently using 2 M9 Plus. 4 pax in my house so at least 8 devices (4 computers, 4 phones) at any one time so probably my M9 is struggling (lag at times even on my new computer)

Was thinking to add a X20/ X60 as the main node but then realized they are both Dual Band.

If I add a X60 as the main node, will it do more harm than good?

If yes, I will have to wait for the X90 to be sold here.

Thanks
