Every year I have been upgrading my eero mesh network. I got my eero (1st-generation) in 2017. And in 2018, I added an eero Beacon.
In 2019, I am going to replace the gateway node with an eero Pro.

Synology Mesh Router MR2200ac Review
The Synology Mesh Router MR2200ac was launched in Singapore this week at a recommended retail price of S$199.

Linksys Velop (Dual-Band) Review
One of the main concerns of the Linksys Velop (Tri-Band) wi-fi mesh system is the price. Linksys Velop (Tri-Band) retails their 1-pack for S$349, 2-pack for S$599 and 3-pack for S$749.
With the introduction of the Linksys Velop (Dual-Band) on 28th July 2018, Linksys manage to solve the pricing problem. It is friendly to the wallet because is about two times cheaper. Linksys Velop (Dual-Band) retails their 1-pack for S$139, 2-pack for S$269 and 3-pack for S$399.
eero Beacon
eero Beacon usual price is US$149 (S$199). But on 27th December 2017, they had a sale where it was discounted to US$99 (S$132) with the discount code BEACON99.
Shipping within the US is free, and hence I sent it to my favorite fright forwarder, HopShopGo, and get them to ship to Singapore for me.
Google Wifi Review

Aztech AIR-706P AC1900 Dual Band Gigabit Mesh Router Review
Aztech AIR-706P is the first mesh router from Aztech that was launched in July 2017 and is retailing for S$269.
The AIR-706P is a budget router that can expand its range using another AIR-706P via mesh network rather than a wi-fi extender.
