Luma, a new easier, faster router

Supposedly less dead spots and better home wifi with mesh technology.  Control network with single app on phone instead of going thru the convoluted local ip address of your router. 

My tech skills are limited, especially with home networks.  This should simplify things.  Now I can put my printer in my dead zone den instead of out of place dining room. 

Pre-order 3 for $250, I'm a sucker for these gadgets..  probably get the 3 pack. (they have gold color!).

Interesting technology. It sounds like they are using future WiFi standards to create a wireless mesh network. I wonder how much of a speed penalty you pay for this type of network. It also allows you to snoop on other adults/kids in your home and see which websites they are viewing. This could get some people in trouble  >

Hype all they want, it basically a wifi device with extenders.
