Synology Mesh setup
I’m a long-time user of a Synology RT2600ac router, and my biggest frustration has always been extending my Wi-Fi network to cover the whole house. I've experimented with extenders and a Powerline network with Wi-Fi, but having to prompt my devices to move from one network to another feels like a compromise.
Mesh networks would fix this problem, so you can imagine how excited I was to discover my RT2600ac could combine with other Synology routers to deliver such a solution. What do I need for such a setup—can I keep the cost to under $150, for example? And how do I go about configuring a Synology mesh network?

You can create a simple two-device mesh network by combining your RT2600ac with either Synology’s new flagship Wi-Fi router (RT6600ax, $301 ) or its budget WiFi 5 router (MR2200ac, $120 ). This should be sufficient to boost the signal to one dead spot in your home.
