This new Wi-Fi mesh router costs $20, and that's not a typo

It may not be Wi-Fi 6 or support gigabit wireless speeds, but does it need to at that price?

You may not have heard of Vilo before, but barring any major issues, I think it's a name you'll be familiar with going forward. The company has just announced a new mesh Wi-Fi system — a boring subject, save one detail: The Vilo Mesh Wi-Fi System is a mere $20 per node (plus shipping) and $60 for a three-pack. It may not support the very latest Wi-Fi specifications, but that's a crazy price.
