All of the devices in our house are connected via WiFi, and we're about to undergo an upgrade from 100mb ADSL (60mb realistically) to 500mb Fibre connection - WiFi link speed has never been a limiting factor to get the most out of my internet connection.

I've currently got a couple of these Mesh WiFi 6 access points, so I know I can beam at 500+ mb plus speeds round the property - https://www.tp-link.com/uk/business-networking/omada-sdn-access-point/eap610/

Other than ensuring the devices able to connect at WiFi 6 link speeds is there anything else I need to consider?
 
Sorry, it's rudimentary copper connection currently - assume VDSL2 based on the speed paid for.

The router is plugged to a gigabit POE switch which in turn is connected to the access points - https://www.tp-link.com/us/business-networking/unmanaged-switch/tl-sg1008p/

Think I just need these for each PC in the home? https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/usb-adapter/archer-tx20u-plus/

I'm not sure what your question is - are you saying that you already have Wi-Fi 6 access points installed in your house and they provide decent coverage? If that's the case then you need to do nothing.

Essentially, yes! Just making sure I've the right infrastructure to benefit / utilise a 500mbps connection
