Thanks for the reply. My home is only 1200 Sq ft, and I will probably max out at 40 devices so I can even get by without an extender or mesh system.

Ok, Ya 1200 sq ft, installing a wifi router/AP would be good enough. Maybe one satellite at 30 feet with power set to 25% would work well for 60 devices spread out across the two.
