Hello everyone! I'm keeping it brief since I can. I'll add a photo of our home layout with dots marking the hardwire spots. Our smart box is in the laundry room, currently hosting the Router/Modem. It has a Wi-Fi 5 connection that struggles to reach outside and Bedroom 2 (my office). There are Cat5 routes to the family room and two bedrooms. I'm trying to stay within budget but need 2-4 solid 6E access points to boost connectivity, ideally with both inbound and outbound lines. No PoE, wall mounts are a big plus. I've considered a mesh system from Eero or similar, but I think hardwired connections would be more effective here. Thanks for any ideas!
