You can create your own "mesh" systems out of wireless routers, but it wont be nearly as seamless and it's more work to get them setup.
Orbi, Google wifi, etc give you a near plug and play mesh system to expand your wifi

aight.
i'm gonna go with google (bleah) at least initially to do some prototyping. i need to figure out the best placement with my sprawling house and many family members who consume my data in addition to my pool which is a bit odd because its on the SIDE of my house (long story short, house is on 3 acres but most of that is a wooded hill so the only way to expand is on either side)
the one thing that gives me pause is if you go to google's store...they don't even list 'google wifi' in the hardware section that comes up. you have to search for it which concerns me a bit.
its all a crapshoot these days. i think wink is on its dying breath now but smartthings doesn't seem to be doing much better so i wish SOMEONE would integrate zwave & zigbee into a hub that will actually be around in 5 years.
