I was comparing a Mesh Force device side-by-side with my Unifi AC-PRO and to be honest overall I'm impressed with Meshforce. I've had it up and running for about a week now and have cast multiple devices to it including my phone and haven't noticed any issues. When I run speed tests (fast.com) I find reasonable limits since I live in an apartment and don't have devices that can work at full speed. but it was consistently 50+ Mbps faster than my Unifi. I wouldn't say that's a huge difference considering Unifi has a heavier load and Meshforce had brand new devices. But overall very impressive. Usually when I try to add consumer devices to my network it's a royal pain, although to do this I plugged it into an access port on my switch and opened the app and after 3 minutes everything was working. I was very happy to see that there is an option for bridge mode instead of a full router like many mesh devices do. In fact, most devices remove their grid function as soon as you put them in bridge mode, and this device doesn't seem to do that. I only have one unit given my flat square footage but I'm sure it will work fine. I noticed that in the app you can create an account and manage your network anywhere you have an internet connection, e.g. B. on their computers, which is a nice feature. Another cool feature I noticed is what's called the Smart Assistant, which lowers your network frequency to 2.4GHz for a period of time. Some new "smart" devices will only connect if they are on the same SSID (they check MAC addresses) and ignore that they are on the same layer 2 subnet. This feature seems to indicate that everything is enforced on the same network to avoid configuration issues. I can tell you that in the past, fixing some of these issues has been a real headache to get them working. I don't have either of these devices to test this feature. Guest mode is very easy to use and has a built-in validity period. If you don't want to be constantly broadcasting it, it separates your guest network from your internal network, which is a nice bonus, but sometimes you still want guests and the like to have access to Chromecasts etc. This should be a feature improvement. I've included some pictures of the actual device to show how small it is compared to my Goole Home. I was quite surprised by the physical size of the footprint. It seems like it could be smaller considering how light it is. My only real complaint about the device is the lack of multiple private SSIDs and VLAN support, although no consumer device has this on the market.
