Instead of using the shitty underpowered provided modem/router, I recommend buying a separate router and turning off the router functionality in the Virgin's device. You should also look into a mesh system instead of access points--access points can create isolated networks that have difficulty communicating with each other.\r\n\r\nI personally use the [TP-Link Deco M5](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06WVCB862/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_dl_EGGTDRQKNFJQN6TXQQ5X), which is regularly rated one of the best systems, but is also one of the cheapest mesh network options. But I'm sure there's plenty of advice floating around about mesh networks, do your own research of course.","subreddit_name":"homebridge","author":"Connguy"},{"body":"You have a couple of options. POE APs like Omada or UniFi, or a mesh system (in AP mode).\r\n\r\nThe latter is simpler to set up. Something like the [Deco M5](https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Deco-Whole-Home-System/dp/B06WVCB862) should work fine. You basically just wire up 3 nodes, put them in AP mode, turn off wifi on the G1100.","subreddit_name":"HomeNetworking","author":"Yo_2T"},{"body":"Limited-time deal: TP-Link Deco Mesh WiFi System(Deco M5) –Up to 5,500 sq. ft.
