    Might review Orbi or a Nighthawk MK Mesh systems.


    For that size of home a router and two satellites should be all thats needed. Maybe one satellite depending.

    What current router do you have? (gives us an idea of whats not cutting it currently)

    Are you going to be centrally locating it? 

    What is the internals of your house made from (certain materials block wifi)?

    What speeds do you pay for or plan on upgrading to? 

    Whats your budget? (pointless to recommend a super expensive system if it isn't in the budget)

    What do you use it for?
