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? And how do I go about configuring a Synology mesh network?

APC responds: You can create a simple two-device mesh network by combining your RT2600ac with either Synology’s new flagship Wi-Fi router RT6600ax, or its budget WiFi 5 router (MR2200ac. This should be sufficient to boost the signal to one dead spot in your home. You can then add extra MR2200ac routers as additional satellites should the need arise.
