    “mesh” is a buzzword that doesn’t make much sense (to me at least) if we are talking about wired and routers… what do you mean by it? can you describe your setup?

    edit:

    Let me clarify :)

    Unless I’m mistaken, mesh means that one a bunch of devices, usually wireless access points, connected with each other (in a mesh) with possibly low-quality connections that automatically switch traffic for each other.

    If you have ethernet running from the router to the APs, you always want to use that and so you don’t want a mesh at all.
