I'm a home networking newbie and would appreciate any advice folks have. I got my house wired for ethernet, but have some areas I was hoping to improve the wifi for my mobile devices with a wired backhaul setup.

I tried looking through the posts here and it seems like most folks don't recommend going with the mesh systems as it's paying a premium for a wireless backhaul that I wouldn't be using. It also sounds like I shouldn't use any random access points as handoffs between them may not work efficiently. That said, what devices do folks recommend? I saw ubiquity come up a couple times, but wasn't sure if there were cheaper and/or better options?

You are right, you want Access Points.

Ubiquity seems popular, but I will let others chime in.
