You just missed all of the black friday sales unfortunately. I would get something like this [TP-Link Deco AX1800 Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 6, Wireless, Up to 370 Sqm, Parental Control, Seamless AI Roaming, WPA3 Security, Easy Setup, App Control, Gaming & Streaming, Smart Home (Deco X20(2-Pack)): Computers: Amazon.com.au](https://www.amazon.com.au/TP-Link-AX1800-Whole-Wi-Fi-System/dp/B07G392VCD/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3JJ56I78JB82Z&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.-JClX5wCCBWWgnADv8Dsk4nqzfo20y_phFqpbfEIofTgD2LI2jXkIblcJRXG1xBmMgqgAyfUq5Rdwl2DzwHM15wKIUTRo8uP55hjR8wFMypcy0IpxK4dn6PQ148yyYpmAHcbux7OHZHWu1quCIaxoz0-nVVqjeT66ebH6CVp2HPz1XPeggWJcgv0MV1k_roYz5lS0tp3lfAW-iYIbVsJe6E65JiP_DZo1mhN8oXC85a8giZLEFEuVNPRZP-tG83by9QG22DCIxGGre8SHwluEa2N5wghAtWWOFTSzE0XA-Q.3zxXKl9uM2c_nmn0fkqX6jiTWv-P5QwO2XNxx9sUMkY&dib_tag=se&keywords=eero%2B6%2B2%2Bpack&qid=1764914181&sprefix=eero%2B6%2B2%2Bpa%2Caps%2C244&sr=8-5&th=1) or look for something second hand on facebook nearby - there will be heaps in innercity melbourne.

What speed internet? I used these exact Deco units for a 2,600sqft town home, no complaints. I used 2 Deco X20’s in my old apartment which was about 1200sqft and they worked great. I’m now currently using a mix of BE85’s and XE75’s for faster internet speeds and they’re working great as well. All that to say… TP-Link Decos have been great for me. Just make sure you have wired backhaul to get the best performance.

Best is wired APs - nothing beats this. But I'm assuming that's not an option since re-wiring is not something you're keen to explore? If it's your home and budget permits, this is the way. Next option ==> Consumer grade mesh routers. I have 1 in my bedroom in AP mode connected to a UniFi UCG ultra gateway. The other mesh node is in the living room. You can add as many nodes as you want since they just need power and no cabling. TP-Link (though Chinese) is probably your best bet in terms of price and availability. If you're concerned about telemetry etc (Like I am), all my traffic is routed via Pi Hole + comprehensive firewall rules on the gateway. Not all TP-Link mesh routers are the same. Get the newer ones with stronger signals/ gain and try it out. E.g., I have the older models (X20), but they work for me. There are many newer ones including the Omada range. You will need to do some research/ speak to your local micro center/ equivalent.

We've had the X20 (3 units) for the last 2-3 years and its been just fine. Two-story house, 1850sq feet with AT&T fiber. 4 users and about 32 devices (inflated due to Proxmox LXCs). Could get by with 2 but it came with 3. My son has a back corner upstairs room so he is hardwired from his PC to one of the bases. My PC is downstairs and is hardwired to a switch which is hardwired to a base which is then hardwired to wall which connects upstairs in my bedroom closet. The subscription thing sucks but we do get use out of it. Have a small server for Plex, piHole, Tailscale, etc and have no issues being remote. Seems like most here hate it but, as I said, works good for our use-case.
