Choosing adequate wireless access points for a home environment is a common topic between homelabbers.
In my scenario, I've opted to use whatever I've had laying around for less-demanding parts of my house and configured it according to my needs. For more demanding part of my house, such as the garage workspace or living room, I chose new gear, supporting modern 802.11 protocols, as I sometimes need to wirelessly download bigger volumes of data, or communicate with my network with low latency.
This setup works fine for me, although many people might prefer to buy new and more up-to-date gear. In that case, Ubiquiti might be one of the best choices for such scenarios. Ubiquiti is a well-known manufacturer of SOHO networking equipment, and they offer lots of wireless and wired networking gear. Unifi is one of the best rated networking ecosystems, you just plug it in, click a few buttons, and it just works.
