I put a three station Deco mesh setup in at home a few months back. It uses powerline networking for the 'backhaul' comms between the stations. Wifi coverage is absolutely no longer an issue, lovely strong dual band everywhere. The system also has pretty good built in content filtering, you can apportion bandwith to devices, prioritise certain types of traffic etc. Expensive but would recommend.
