Best mix of PoE APs and wired consumer mesh? Eero? TP-Link? Netgear? Engenius?
Post Body

I currently have an Eero Pro 6 mesh, but all 3 units are using a wired backhaul -- no wireless mesh. Additionally, I have 2 ceiling PoE Engenius APs.

The problem is that clients really hate to switch between the two devices. They will stick on a distant AP rather than automatically switch between Engenius and Eero.

Is this behavior due to mixing and matching devices? Because the SSID settings are the same across the network.

Would it be better to stick with a single brand for the entire network? And, if so, does any brand have both PoE AP and wired backhaul mesh that plays nice together?
