Our take

ASUS's ZenWiFi XD4 Plus is the mesh to get if you want control without a subscription: the small nodes tuck away neatly, coverage is strong, and ASUS bundles free lifetime security and genuinely deep settings. It's dual-band so heavy multi-hop setups lose some speed, but for most homes it's a smart, flexible mesh.
