Hi, I'm signing up for a hyperoptic (500mb?) plan soon and will be setting it up in a 3 story house. I'll likely receive a zyxel EX3301, and will presumably need their mesh package for an additional £5 a month.

Alternatively, I have an ASUS RT-AX56U AX1800, which has fairly poor range by itself. I could, however, purchase an ASUS AX6000 TUF for ~£120 (amazon.de) and set these up in mesh. Over 2 years the price would be the same, but I would keep the router.

Any thoughts for which would be better? Note - I won't be gaming with these or using ethernet, I just want good wifi range for WFH/video calls.
