Tbeam and meshtastic home wifi

Very new to this and just working out how it all works,
I’m just wondering if this can be used for a home mesh wifi to allow strong wifi signal through the home and property. Similar to the Google nest mesh wifi
Any info that would be great

alas - I think not a good fit for that. lora is quite slow usually, and even when run with the fastest possible settings it will be much slower than wifi.

I see so the tbeam really is for basic communication, none the less I’m impressed with the tech as a prepper network or homesteading of grid network, wa thinking if there’s away to hock up with bigger antennas connected to a solar panel to increase range.

Better antennas definely help range (some folks here have gotten 98km per hop).

Ok thank you for the help my head runs away with me at times and was thinking of a SHTF or underground network were you could secretly stash self substaning nodes through out towns and citys lol I love how this is a open engineerd project, the everyday hobbyist doing the testing and ideas ect
