@balooo2 , with respect to your "daisy chain" description, not quite. To daisy chain something means that you configuring whatever to be in series with one another. However a *mesh* system is not "in series". Here's a good explanation:
https://www.tomsguide.com/us/what-is-mesh-wifi-router,news-24580.html
"With a mesh Wi-Fi router, one access point acts as the router or base station and connects to one of the best cable modems to get internet access. Meanwhile, the other nodes act as satellites, receiving internet from the base station and then rebroadcasting it to nearby devices.
All of these units share data back and forth and provide multiple sources of Wi-Fi. One of the best things about a mesh system is that unlike with Wi-Fi range extenders, they all share the same network, so you won’t have to switch to a new network as you move throughout your house."
I used to use simple extenders but keeping everything straight was a PITA. Not to mention all the SSDs to deal with. Messy. With mesh, you're not moving from one network to another. The handoff from one node to another is seamless.
Happy listening.
