I am adding an additional NVR security system on the opposite side of the house from my router. It requires an ethernet port for connectivity.
\n\n
Powerline Ethernet if you domestic mains wiring is up to it.

Does just what you want for many people.

reason orbi might work better (the tri-bands) is that they reserve 1 radio chip just for router---satellite communication. This helps reduce the throughput and latency hit you take by using extenders. They also offer both daisy chain and star configurations and they adjust to what works best.
Meaning they can go:
Star: satellite<----------router--------->satellite
Daisy chain: Router-------->satellite--------->satellite
or even a combination: satellite<----------router-------->satellite--------->satellite
plus they offer ethernet backhaul.
And some of the satellites have ethernet jacks on them for hardwiring in devices.
And if you have area's that need better coverage, its easy to add additional satellites with orbi. Regular extenders don't work well if you're needing more than 1.
Plus it uses 1 ssid for the router/satellites so you arent having to constantly switch between ssid's.
Reason there hasn't been a \"new router that has much longer range\" is that the FCC sets broadcast limits on power. thats why you aren't seeing the range improvements that prior generations brought. But you are seeing better throughput speeds at those distances. And better tolerance for multiple devices sending/receiving at the same time.
if you do look at orbi, the 50 series has the highest throughput backhaul.
