Powerful Modem cum Router for Airtel.

[JB701]

if you want to cover two floors, you will likely need to get two A6/C6. One for each floor. Reinforced concrete will kill your WiFi.

Use one Archer C6/A6 as Primary router and the other as an Access Point.
Modem, use the one provided by Airtel in bridge mode.

You can try this. though no solid reviews yet.
One for each floor. I have brought 2 of these. Yet to be delivered. Was 3500 without sale. Supports easymesh which may be adapted in openwrt in future.
Comes to 5k after sbi discount for 2pc mesh.

@JB701 didn't see that the requirement was for two floors. In that case a single router will not suffice.

If you get 2 Archer C6's you can use them to create a mesh network under OneMesh functionality

 

[JB701]

Yeah as much as Mesh WiFi is suited for large areas. OP only has two 1000-1500sqft floors to cover. I think wiring up one router directly would be better for performance in this case.

last time i checked, this is not possible on official firmware at least.

 

[MadAxe]

Correct. Has already been tried by many. Don't waste your money.

Yes it is possible. I have the latest firmware and I can see the Onemesh functionality, also you can check TP-Link site to see supported routers too.

Is TP-Link Archer C6 good enough for 100mbps access point? | Routers Modems Dongles

Is C6 good enough for 100mbps access point? My really really old Buffalo router has become quite painful to use in the corner most room of the house 😩

C6 can operate as a base unit. But other devices have to be repeaters.
