I'm still on an old asus wifi 5 router and want to upgrade before the tariff price hikes. I've been doing some research, and was all set to get a asus GT-AXE11000 for the 4x4 6e, but now I'm wondering if I'd be better with a wifi 7 mesh system, with an access point on each floor?

  • coverage area: 700sqft x 3 stories
  • interior walls: old. Plaster+lathe.
  • floors: wood
  • Use case: WAP, Home networking/file sharing/backup, normal nerdy home use stuff, light gaming, light torrenting
  • Devices: so far only our phones are wifi 7, but futureproofing sounds nice.
  • Area: urban, we have neighbors within wifi range in every direction except vertical.
