I use a pre-historic Linksys EA3500 (with OpenWrt) for precisely that. It's an 8/64 device, but it works. It's not the smallest (though smaller than its successor, EA4500), but can be had very inexpensively. I also use a Linksys WHW01 (with OpenWrt) as an access point, so I see no reason why you can't use one as a wireless bridge. It's a tiny tower about 3 inches square at base and about 6 inches tall... Equally easy to get on the cheap (in my neck of the woods, that is).

Now we’re getting some where! The numbers look good according to: https://devicetests.com/what-is-a-good-ping-speed That’s really good ping time. You will need a mesh wireless system if you are not comfortable with wiring APs, or access points. The APs act as transceivers for a better signal/connection to the WiFi. The mesh system will try its best but, it’s a second best when it comes to wired Ethernet. When choosing a brand, do your research. They all have pros and cons. I have a Linksys Velop mesh system. It’s the ease of the setup that made me it a good choice for me. I got it at a steal, which is a plus!

I get by right now with some Linksys Velop. You can find some used for $20-$40 a node. They are easy to set up and very stable if done right.

I have just moved to Unifi from Linksys due to the constant issues with the Velop mesh. All wired and seems to be working very well. Even the Mrs is happy

Well, the good part is that any Wi-Fi router should be able to transmit at about 600 megabytes per second minimum. However, you're only paying for 100 megabytes per second into the house. That means anything you're accessing over the internet is not going to be a problem with the cheapest router you can purchase. As has been stated already in other comments, your biggest decision-making should be based on coverage. If you have a large home, it might be best to go with a router that can have mesh devices added to it later if you find that you'll need them. For instance, a linksys, velop line of routers work pretty well.

Linksys Velop was a game changer for my Google Home experience. 4 Refurb nodes. Were inexpensive too. https://www.reddit.com/r/googlehome/s/f0uwyP1uNK
