How complicated do you want it? You can do unifi like the other response suggests for a flexible system you can customize. For something more plug and play I’m really liking the Tp-link deco 10000 or 11000. It has WiFi 7 and the speeds and stability has been great
I've had the deco 6e system with several 5 nodes because of the how spread out I need the signal to reach. I'm disappointed in how the legacy nodes perform. The speeds drop off significantly (in my experience). I'm waiting till black Friday sales to either switch ecosystems or get more of the newer nodes.
I'm just disappointed in how the older nodes should be able to handle 500 down easily and yet underperform consistently. I'm over 1gb on the 6e though so no real complaints there. I have the old nodes because I've been a tp link mesh customer for over 5 years now.
I’ve been using Exetel paired with my TP-Link Deco Tri-Band Mesh WiFi 6E Router and it’s been great. Feel free to use my referral code for $1 off your bill if signing up 😊 cheers

Same experience, my Deco 6E mesh system running well w/ 4 satellites total through my house and garage.
I came from a Netgear single router and would have loved to have stayed with that brand, but the TP-Link cost was half what I would have spent on Netgear mesh.
Unpopular opinion: I did the ubqiuiti rabbit hole and it’s not worth it. They don’t update their hardware fast enough. When things failed it was a pain in the ass to get back up. I’d have to reboot the whole system more.
I put in a deco system at my sisters and was amazed how much faster it was than my network. I ripped out every one of the ubiquiti boxes, put in 2.5 gig managed switches, got deco 6e, pfsense router and have far less issues and money & time spent. Running them as just ap’s is great and I only need two now versus 3 ap’s with ubquity. I was able to upgrade my internet past the 1 gig to 3 gig plan now that I could actually hit those speeds. I have close to 70 devices on the network between iot, hosts and a nas. I can easily get over a gig on my phone now to the net and transfer files internally far faster. Save your money and time. Don’t go ubuiqiti. 20 year network admin here.
