why is this router so expensive vs getting a mesh like the tp link deco X75e's? What do you really get?
The big issue with mesh system is that, when you are connected to a node and move to the next nearest node, chances are that you are still connected to the farthest node. With AXE16000 it offers excellent coverage and offers multi-gig ports.

is the coverage really boosted that much more? I always thought it didnt really matter since 2.4ghz has the longest coverage and the slowest speeds anyway.
I get this router has 2 10gb ports and a 2.5 port but for wifi does it really make that much difference?

Depending on the setup if you change the mesh power level to <75%, it will better connect to the nearest node. When it transmits at 100%, that's when you tend to connect to the farthest node. I keep my Orbi 960 at 50% power level for 3 nodes to cover 3000sqft and backyard and it receives signal from the nearest node really well.
