A:Answer I'm using a gigabit ISP myself, and the only thing I'll note is that due to the limitations of a dual band system, you're probably not going to get more than 300-400mbps on your more distant nodes. That said, even using a gigabit+ wireless router and extender I averaged slower speeds than this mesh network when combined with a gigabit internet connection, so I honestly wouldn't worry out the band and throughput limitations if comparing this against stand-alone routers. You can opt for more high-end mesh networks of course, but personally that seems like a rather steep jump in price without a whole lot of real-world gain when it comes right down to it.
