Mind you that I only have 100Mbps Spectrum internet but I do stream/direct play 4k videos from a Plex media server to several Amazon Firestick 4k devices without issue. Overall IMO you would be hard pressed to find such relatively decent hardware for so cheap; especially a Mesh network.
It wasn't all smooth at first mind you. I kept getting disconnects; especially with the streaming IP cameras. But I discovered by disabling Express Forwarding all my streaming issues went away. (CA>Connectivity>Administration>Express Forwarding)
I'm guessing that Cisco's/Linksys' proprietary Express Forwarding routing protocol was causing havoc with the IP cams streaming capabilities. Also, disabling Node Steering seemed to make things more stable as well; mesh nodes no longer disconnect from the router when Node Steering is disabled. (CA>Wi-Fi Settings>Advanced>Node Steering)
Of course, user experience can vary so feel free to experiment. if the routers are giving you problems, try turning these features off and see if it works
It's not a deal if you never receive it.

The ap still has an ip and you can access thr webif from a browser. Look up the Mac address on the router and locate it's ip.
Real issue for many are bad ISP upload speed and inconsistent latency outside home. I hate FiOS as a company but must admit it's been solid for decades. It can also be $30-$45 for 300 up and down or faster.
1. Connect pfSense output to router's WAN port
2. Assign static IP address in pfSense to a router based on its mac address.
3. Reset router's default admin password to something different
4. Setup Wifi SSID and Password (My router is still in "Router Mode")
7. Put static IP address generated in PfSense in a router so that it can be accesses via Web UI.
5. Disable DHCP (As IP addresses are handed over by PfSense)
6. Now put Router in "Bridge Mode"
7. Reboot Router
Am I missing something here?
I am sure I tried couple of days back and couldn't access UI.
I managed to hard-wired internet when I swiched to internet ports and not using WAN port for pfSense but wifi wasn't working and UI also wasn't accessible
That thing from woot won't ship for half a month! Unbelievableā¦.

Yes, the 5GHz2 band which is 4x4 is used for the wireless backhaul. Using the CA menu from a desktop browser you can even assign a different SSID for this band if you want to have it dedicated to the backhaul.
