The main router (Shaw) is on the second floor bonus room. When we did the basement, network wiring was setup, but not connected to the router on the second floor.
I have an older Linksys mesh system, which has been flaky lately. I am looking to replace it with a newer system (Wifi 6E or 7). Mesh systems with 6GHz frequency for backhaul tend to have a shorter range, and the suggestion is to have a wired backhaul to take advantage of the capabilities of the mesh nodes. The basement is where I have my office, which is why speed and more stable connection in the basement is needed.
