I can cover twice the size of my house, and expand at will.

About $900 for everything I picked up, but that meant I didn't have to spend $500 for a new router PLUS spend additional money on a wired extender, or buy a $500 mesh system that still risked having the same problems as my previous setup. A wireless backhaul is still going to suffer the interference issues I had. Wired was the way to go.
Yeah, I spent double what a consumer solution would have cost, but it has been rock solid, the spouse acceptance factor is really high, and I get to have fun with enterprise-grade network gear in my house. I'm pretty happy with the purchase.
