Any that you would recommend specifically, I haven't been keeping up with consumer networking as much as I used to.

 

Long story short, I'm trying to upgrade my parents network and I'm looking for something that will just work reliably because the current google nest wifi they have is terrible and disconnects and has to be reset all the time (almost daily basis). I know running ethernet cables is the best option and I would have loved to install a ubiquiti system, but I can't for various reasons. I found the tp link deco px50 which uses powerline as the backhaul instead of wireless which is advertises improved speeds, but they don't need faster speeds. My only concern is the reliability, will appliances or other devices interfere with it? I'm not concerned with any speed benefit because they only pay for 400mbps symmetric fiber and never need more that 100mbps to a device. Thoughts on the px50 and using powerline as a mesh backhaul? TIA

 

I know price can vary quite a bit, but im trying to get a general idea. I want a few ethernet lines run throughout a split level house. The WAN comes into the master bedroom on the upper floor and I want 1 line to the living room in the center of the house on the main floor. I also want 1 line to the basement which is right below the master bedroom. Does anyone know what I can expect the rough cost to be? TIA

 

I've been watching the prices of the RAM and SSD drives that I have been considering for my Framework 16 Batch 7 which doesn't ship until Q1. The 64gb 5600 Crucial RAM is down to under $200 and the 4tb Samsung 990 Pro is down to $250. Should I pull the trigger on them now or wait until closer to or after my Framework arrives even though the price might be higher?
