I'm not expecting huge increase in speeds but lately I've noticed my Wifi a bit slow - especially as I have 1gb ethernet - likely due to 2.4 and 5GHz network congestion.
Most of my devices won't support 6Ghz, but I don't foresee the price dropping and for urban homes like mine, I'd gladly be an early adopter of improved WFH kit.
Most Asus mesh have 4 ports also some of the higher end Netgear Orbis also have 4 ports so thats what you want to keep an eye out for.

In short your overpaying but not getting a lot in return when there are cheaper systems that use wifi 6 that can get you better results if you dont care about being able to customize it, and looking for a very hands off system that just works.
I believe the connection speed between the nodes of this system is much higher than the previous generation.

Yes. WiFi 6+ promises a lot, especially in terms of congestion... Except most devices congesting the network won't be alleviated. IoT devices running on 2.4GHz bands of pre-WiFi_6.
And for people with the money for these are probably on ZigBee or alternatives that aren't congesting the routers anyways.
Unless... This has something to do with MATTER, I'm honestly not familiar at all with that.
note: sorry for the ramble, I just don't get it and hope someone will educate me
I just upgraded my Internet service to 900mbps and I currently have the Netgear Nighthawk R7900P from several years ago and its giving me 400mbps on 2.4ghz and 700mbps on 5ghz. My only problem is that I'm not getting strong signal in certain parts of the home. So I'm seriously looking at getting the following:
Google Nest WiFi Router 3 Pack (2nd Generation) – 4x4 AC2200 Mesh Wi-Fi Routers with 6600 Sq Ft Coverage - $199.99
https://www.amazon.com/Google-Nes...08F1YPMS1/
With the Amex offer, this would be as low as $160.

I own both the first and 2nd gen of google wifi. First gen was great honestly. 2nd gen was atrocious [https://www.googlenestc
To top it off, Google Wifi gen 1s and 2s had no advanced features. While this isnt a deal breaker, if youre a power user looking for extra features, the generally dont come with google products.
I will say, I did like the fact that google wifi gen 2 wifi points doubled as google homes, sadly that feature isnt added in the gen 3s. Also, Gen 2s were compatible with the Gen 1s. Gen 3s offer no compatibility.
All this to say, this Google Wifi gen 3 might be great, but the last version of Google wifi was bad on all fronts in my opinion, dont expect much more from Google, at least in terms of wifi. i'd love to be proven wrong though.
The main problem with these is that they only have a 1gbps connection between it and the WLAN/Modem, but if your plan is 900mbps you should be fine.
If I got this. It would be to keep 2 or split/sell the other 2.
I'm usually no more than 20-30 ft from my router(in a condo).
And thank you also on the MBA M1 info.
I thought my MBA M1 had wifi 6 all this time.

It's generally stable; until it isn't. The setup, configuration, and troubleshooting is incredibly unintuitive - so if you aren't working with it regularly; and then something goes wrong - you are plunged into a big pile of wtf.
I've spent most of my life working in tech; including networking. But after my last unifi issue - I'm keeping my eyes out for a (simple) replacement.
The issue was: one of the APs lost the ability to broadcast. Everything seemed 100% fine. It would survey, etc.
I'm assuming hardware failure. The issue isn't the issue; it's how much of a pita the unifi system is to work with if you aren't familiar with it.
You could read this all the other way: it's been stable and is a powerful platform. But I would never generically recommend unifi.
