I have several layers of soundproofing between floors, and it kills of
wifi.
My kids' rooms are downstairs, not far from my router -- but there's a
breaker box between my son's room and the AP - one room gets 30 mbps,
his gets 3...
I'm in the "if possible, run ethernet any way possible between floors
and chuck a cheap router on the other end of the cable" non-mesh
network. :)
I tried mesh, I tried wireiess extenders, I tried powerline - each
worked to some extent - but being able to have a router for my home
office with VLANs and to extend wifi, and backhaul the connection over
gigabit ethernet is a godsend.
