Well its 3 floors (Basement, Main Floor, Second Floor), so was thinking two-three extenders to help cover the backyard.
Probably looking to cover roughly 5,000-6,000 sq feet. The whole lot is 9,0000 sq ft but i am not too concerned with WiFi coverage towards the front yard/street.

Want to circle back on this.
I see the MX63 state AX1800s. How do these differ from the WAX610, i have setup the MX63 but seems to constantly drop WiFi or devices are connecting to the main router rather than the satlietes when they are closer to the satlietes.
Each Satliete is wired to a network switch which also is connected to the 1 LAN port on the main MK63 router.

do you have the MK system hardwired in? or running off the wireless backhaul?
the WAX610 would potentially perform better as its business class but its also $150/a piece.
A bit more expensive. Plus they use the insight managment

They are hardwired in. I have TP link switch, which the main MK63 router runs an ehternet wire to. Then the other two are hardwired to the switch.
