2 google on hubs vs google on hub and google wifi

[dentalexel]

I live in a 4 story townhouse. My on hub pretty much covers the whole house but i was thinking of adding a second one on the third floor and creating a mesh with that. Would that be better or worse than using the on hub with google wifi. I have both and will return one.

Since you have the equipment for both, read Wired Bridge with two WAPs using the same SSID to see how to run two routers on the same connection properly. It's a step-by-step hand-holding "manual". (But be aware - routers [hubs - same thing] are designed to transmit and receive horizontally - going 4 floors may require 4 routers arranged so that they're not sitting one on top of the other. [The path loss for two devices with horizontal antennas sitting one above the other, about 8 feet apart, can be enormous. That's why you'll see towers with 2 two-way radio antennas one above the other. Just the placement keeps a lot of the transmitted signal out of the receiving antenna.])
