“I'm not seing why this is called a MESH router? Is this capable of combining 2 of the same models together for greater service? Its not in the VELOP family so I'm not seeing how MESH plays in, Could someone advise the MESH component/add-on?”

Hello, iNexxFear. The Linksys MR9600 is a is a Mesh Router that delivers true Gigabit speeds of up to 6 Gbps with eight-stream capacity throughout the entire home. You can also combine the same model to expand your network, and it is compatible to work with all Linksys Velop models.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.From my research so far, the software on this router allows for the addition of any velop mesh nodes or routers in order to create a mesh wifi network. So in theory, you could combine two of these routers, or this router and some mesh nodes, preferably ones that are also wifi 6 to avoid compatibility issues, and have yourself a wifi network with 0 dead or slow spots.

This is straight from the Linksys website, funny how they mention Velop: Mesh WiFi Explained Mesh WiFi, which is also known as whole home WiFi, employs a main router that connects to a modem and a series of modules, called nodes. The router by the modem mimics a standard setup while the nodes are deployed around the home or business to create mesh WiFi. This enables a more robust WiFi network, with better coverage and stronger speeds, available throughout the building or floor. It's like a wireless home speaker system with the main receiver and the satellite speakers offering the sound throughout the house — but in this case, it's an internet network.

Benefits of Mesh WiFi Here are the top benefits of upgrading to Mesh WiFi: Improved speed and coverage: A household or business may have multiple users and many connected devices. Traditional routers lack fast speeds and adequate range, which causes weak signals or dead spots within a home. A Mesh WiFi system can help overcome these obstacles by delivering reliable, fast, and secure WiFi throughout your home, backyard, and garage. Increased security: When you upgrade to a Mesh WiFi system, such as Linksys Velop Mesh-WiFi, you'll have more control of who can use your WiFi network and how. For example, you can give network guests their own username and password and also limit internet usage for the kids with Parental Control features. Customizable: A modular mesh WiFi system like Linksys Velop Mesh-WiFi enables you to customize where and how you want to expand your home WiFi. You'll have greater flexibility when you decide where to put the Mesh modules and nodes.
