I would also run OM4 fiber to your drops. Fiber is cheap, small and can already support 100gbit.

If you want futureproof throw in some OM4.

I think the APs are a fixture and likely included with the house unless the contract expressly excluded the equipment.

Don’t forget to talk to your realtor about this.

I’m on gigabit Telus in Vancouver.

Full speed should be 940mbps or so. Use fast.com to test.

I think your C7 isn’t going to be fast enough for gigabit, but I don’t know for sure.

Ubiquiti has great gear. I’m not sure how long support will continue for but an EdgeRouter4 is what I use and good for around 4gbps routing. Then convert your C7 as a wifi access point.

I run an Intel 10th gen desktop motherboard in a large case. Win11 unregistered copy works fine, even better on Windows Server.

It has tons of horsepower and enough expansion. Win 11 updates itself, reboots and I have auto login enabled so it lands back at the desktop.

It’s been idiot-proof and very low maintenance.

Handles many 4K60 h265 10-bit transcodes.

Can confirm, my first HDD was 80 MB.

Latency increases dramatically when the connection is loaded at or near capacity.

You want extra headroom to ensure everything works smoothly.

On your computer check your link rate before and after the phone connects to wifi.

It will tell you whether it’s defaulting to a slower standard to accommodate the phone.
