I am looking for simple but effective. Want the satellites to be wireless and be fast enough to stream tv


Google and Ubiquiti are by far the simplest. Depends on the size of your house. Google Wifi range is under 5000 sq ft I believe depending on the placement of your satellites if you have 3 of them, Ubiquiti is 20000 sq ft. Google you can add more satellites, but I heard people have issues if you get to 6. Ubiquiti you are limited to 2 satellites that come in the package, you can't run a wire long distance to another building like you can with Google.

Google's app is also substantially easier to use since they simplified their settings. It's all app based too, Ubiquiti has web based tools as well as an app.
