A mesh Wi-Fi configuration can serve as a substitute for powerline adapters. With two routers operating independently in different areas, you could potentially use a single router paired with a mesh network to deliver both internet access and wired connectivity without needing physical Ethernet cables. This setup might offer a more reliable and faster alternative, especially if the current powerline adapter is malfunctioning. Many users have reported success with similar configurations, though performance can depend on your specific setup and environment.
Google's tracking your online activity. For a mesh setup, consider Netgear's Orbi—it's likely the name they use. Generally, a single Ubiquity device works better than a mesh network since interference can become an issue. It really depends on your specific situation and what you're trying to achieve. Powerline might be another option, though it could depend on whether you live in an apartment building.
