I do not see any brands that offer all I need. I'll be setting up TMHI (T-Mobile), and a mesh network through the house, because the TMHI device will not be centrally located in order to get the best position for signal. I also have two out-buildings that need limited internet - looking at point-to-point for those, and access points inside. I can find everything I need, but not under one brand. Also - I need more than two hard-wired connections inside the home. but most of the mesh 'masters' I see only have two - one in, one out... SO - I'm open to suggestions, please! thanks in advance for any and all assistance!

You can have your TMHI connect over Ethernet to a switch where you'll have ports then there you can get your wired connections and your point to points and your mesh network all off that switch. If you need more ports add another switch.

I’d much rather go this route too, using “mesh” for WiFi just sounds like too much chaos for me. It’s not sexy, but it’s a lot easier to maintain and upgrade (the individual parts).
