Just name brand, these from a performance standpoint are not even in a top 5 or top 10 anymore. I would not pay over $100 for a set new, let alone $180 for a refurbished set, lol.

what makes the 1st gen better is every unit is both a router/access point. second gen has 1 router, and you add access points.

The IP range is one contiguous /24 subnet but if you look at the gateway - they will defer based on which AP it is connected to.
