Hi All,
I'm looking to purchase an Access Point for my apartment. I've drawn up my current setup on the diagram below (red AP doesn't exist today). Essentially, I have my router (AC86U) connected to a modem (bridge mode) that gets my internet connection (600mbps fiber). The router then connects by Cat7 cable to my TV/Chromecast. But in order to get a good stable connection (read constant stable low latency for gaming) for my gaming pc (far left side of diagram) I've used a powerline (gigabit PA7010P). This powerline only manages to get to ±150-200mbps most days (still haven't figured out exactly why, it used to do 300mbps!) and then connects to a gigabit switch which then connects to my PC by a Cat7 cable.
I now need to get proper wireless signal in the left side of the apartment in the diagram. There's 2 main reasons for this:
Thanks a lot in advance!

I now need to get proper wireless signal in the left side of the apartment in the diagram. There's 2 main reasons for this:
- In bedroom and PC room signal is super poor and sometimes not even reachable. I need to have decent wifi for my phones/laptops across the house.
- I'm now purchasing an Oculus Quest 2 (which is Wifi6 compatible) which I intend to use in wireless mode and stream content from my PC directly (not via internet). This will require a very stable wifi connection.
- ±15 meters WiFi Range to overlap with AC86U and ensure wifi internet access across the apartment
- Very stable and low ping between the PC and the Oculus Quest 2 within ±5 meters and through at least 1 wall (PC <-> switch <-> Access Point <-> Oculus Quest2). This should be at at least 300mbps and stable.This is only local traffic (within AP/switch devices) - I appreciate the connection speeds for anything going back to the router (incl general internet connection) will still be limited by the powerline at ±150mbps and that's fine.
Thanks a lot in advance!
