I had issues with a TP Link wireless router (not mesh) constantly dropping and ended up returning it.



Before switching to Ubiquiti, every all in one wireless router I've had (Asus, Linksys, Netgear) all failed or started having issues after a couple years.

My Ubiquiti gear is going strong after 4 years with no issues. Don't get me wrong, I expect something to break eventually. However by having seperate router switches and APs, I'll just replace the piece that breaks.

Routers get hot, switches get hot, and WAPs get hot. Put them all in the same box and it gets hot hot hot. And we demand absolute silence from them so there are no fans.

It costs a bit more up front (especially if you pay to have some wires run for your APs), but I think it pays off in the long run.
