TELUS Boost or Google Wifi
 

Hello,

I currently have TELUS Gigabit Internet, Optik TV and TELUS Home Security. Our home is a 3 floor townhouse, ActionTec T3200M is currently in the living room closet where the patch panel is.

Need better wifi for the third floor, can barely connect to 2.4GHz band, 5GHz can't even be seen by devices.

Considering either TELUS Boost or Google Wifi.

TELUS Boost I read has some performance issues but really easy to set up, and can maintain security devices on the existing wireless network

Google also is east to set up, has brackets available to plug directly into the outlet and is highly rated.

My question is: if I go with Google, can both wifi networks operate well at the same time? Or should I disable the ActionTec wifi?

My plan would be to only use the ActionTec to connect my wired devices and only use wireless for the Home Security stuff. Mobile phones, tablets etc. would be moved to Google.

Is this a good practice?

Thanks,
