Hi,
I am about to move in a new family house and would like to set up a suitable wifi network. Since the house (with basement) has 4 floors, I thought of buying a router and initially two access points. Router-AP and AP-AP would be connected with already installed 10 Gbit Ethernet cable and preferably powered with PoE. As router I thought of devices like the FritzBox 4060 (open to ideas) and the Netgear Wax610 or 620 (probably overkill) as access points. Besides good coverage it's important for me that the devices always choose the best available connection. I figured it's not enough to just rely on client side roaming (mostly Apple products post 2018) and configuring the APs so that they don't overlap much. If so, do I need an additional advanced controller (if so which one to recommend?) or is fast roaming (802.11r) on the router and AP side enough (if so which routers and APs to recommend?)?
Looking forward to your response.
