Thanks everyone,

It's a flat so it sprawls a bit and the walls are fairly thick and WiFi unfriendly.

I'm torn. I could cover most of the house with one well placed AP but coverage in a couple of rooms would still be patchy.

So place the AP well and just use one extra normal access point at a low power and cost to cover just the one room.

You can purchase Google Wifi from Amazon.com using your UK card and with international delivery.

I have ordered two packs of 3 for 299 dollars plus 65 dollars for customs. Amazon waived the shipping fees as they didn't have stock until next week.

That applies for all the US mesh systems, all available on amazon.com with UK shipping i.e., Luma, Eero etc.

Netgears Orbi system is already available in the UK and Maplin has the best price at £369. Orbi doesn't appear to be exactly the same as a mesh network but has its own dedicated wifi connection between the main router and satellite so it doesn't slow down.

Just installed 3 EEROs in a large house connected to a BT Homehub 5B. The wireless is turned off on the Homehub and the wifi is perfect in every room

I was curious about the Cloudkey so I looked it up. It's not 360, it GBP 80 (ish) at Cloudkey

Amazing! Thanks for pointing it out.

Ok, so we have Google wifi mesh, Eero wifi mesh and Netgear Orbi mesh all available. There's a review of them here

According to a thread in the BT forum here, BT also have a mesh system.

Are there any more?

Personally, my Eeros are fine

There's Ubiquiti Amplifi but they seem not to be available in the UK yet.

Eero or Google WiFi get my vote and this is a good solution for buying them

and another

They're like buses.

The Linksys Velop looks to be a good consumer level system for a couple of reasons, firstly because it's Linksys - secondly because it's not Google.
