If your devices all support WPA3, go for it. There's a good chance older things won't.

Most routers include backwards compatibility with WPA2 as a fallback, while newer devices will use WPA3. Should be relatively seamless

Use Ethernet it'll connect no matter what wireless security you have enabled

Yeah, it's on my list to run some Ethernet from my basement to the attic. Right now I have one wire running up the outside of the wall to the AP.

Don't be afraid to add extra APs or switches if necessary
