New mesh network

This app is very intuitive and user friendly. The best app I’ve seen in managing home networks. Complete control for blocking and managing overall access and performance. Very pleased.

Good

Very easy to set up it basically did it all for me but make sure your light is blinking blue when you connect

Good representation of Home Network

I like that it shows in a single diagram the network status. I would give it 5 stars if the advanced menus would show more information, such as link speed for back-hauled daisy chained Decos
