Hello
I am after some advice for my brother in law, he has EE fibre max 100 currently with standard supplied router, his contract is nearly up soon and is looking at sticking or swapping to a higher package on Virgin Media.
He would like to provide the whole house and into the rear garden patio area with good seamless wifi, four bedrooms, two large downstairs open plan rooms, the router is currently in hallway cupboard at front area of the house.
One Bedroom, the sons, already has cat 5e running through from the hallway (where the router is) to the loft and back down into his bedroom (extra cable can be pulled up or down from hallway to the loft if needed)
There is 5 Tv's all capable of streaming Netflix/Prime etc 2 downstairs 3 upstairs, 5 Mobiles , various ipads laptops etc and the son who is a keen gamer/streamer (his room is the hardwired cat5e one) so at prime time it gets busy.
Whats the best scenario to cover this ? he wants it reliable and stable as poss with out it being completely overkill, he is keen on ceiling or wall mounted POE Acess points, how many would suffice ? 1 upstairs 1 downstairs ?
What would be the best way to cover this scenario ?
Hope you can all help !
Regards
