Hey Guys,
I am in the process of upgrading my home wifi setup. The current setup i have is starting to choke on the number of devices connected. Let me be brief:
Current Setup:
The main issue i am having is the RE305 being absolute rubbish for surfing/streaming, etc. I tried the TP LINK Deco M9 Plus Mesh router system too but it had mediocore performance whilst still being in line of sight of the AP.
OR
The AX10 seems to have lackluster performance in my testing, bought it only because my main router blew. The router frequently doesnt load my web pages and has to be restarted, even after setting up a daily auto reboot function. In short, i might have too many devices but the router just cannot handle 4 populated LAN ports even without wireless on.
My Questions:
1. Can anyone recommend 2 routers/mesh, etc. that will connect flawlessly wirelessly? I.e. one will have a LAN cable to connect to the MAIN router but the second has to be wireless, connected to the first. Nothing too expensive, waiting for wifi 6e hardware then upgrading the whole network.
2. A suitable recommendation for the MAIN Router in the interim with atleast 5-8 gigabit LAN ports on the router. Router has to be able to accept a PPoE internet line in. Again 150-200$ is fine.
Thanks for your suggestions and recommendations guys

Current Setup:
- TP-Link AX10 Wifi 6 AX1500 MAIN Router (All 4 ports populated with additional AP's)
- TP LINK A9 AC1900 configured as an AP connected via LAN to main router
- TP LINK RE305 Extender connected wirelessly to the AC1900
