Does anyone have any sense how the pro 6e will perform in the city with interference vs something like google home Wi-Fi? I’m having a lot of issues on video calls and hardwiring is not a good option.
If you have a 6E / 6GHz capable client, a 6E router will help a lot with interference. The 6GHz band is new enough that its not likely to be crowded.
However, since its so new, you're unlikely to have a 6GHz capable client... There are 6Ghz capable PCIe cards (desktop and M.2 form factors), but I haven't seen any 6Ghz wifi USB adapters.
I have a new Wifi6 in my laptop, but obviously dual band. I’m considering hardwiring into the nod which will be wirelessly connected to the mesh, but that may solve all issues.
In my experience, very well. I only tested Google Wi-Fi for a few weeks, but I was unimpressed with it overall. eero does a good job at adjusting things behind the scene. It does an RF scan nightly, and adjusts channels and works around interference better than any other mesh kit I've tested. Most just pick a wide channel and broadcast as loud as possible.
