Has anyone here gone full on with their networking requirements and would like to share their electrical plan?
We will have 5 gamer adults in the house lol

I'm doing a few things after handover:
- small network rack
- small network switch (something with 16ports, 1gb, managed)
- small firewall
- ceiling wireless AC access points (still thinking about it, need to pull data points to ceiling for this)
- ip cameras/cctv
I'll terminate all connections under the stairs where my network rack will be, so i can have a central cabling location (will get nbn and phone pulled there as well)
My setup will be:
- wired network connection for PS4, TV, and all media, and my home server (so i can stream without competing with wifi bw)
- wired ip cams/cctv (powered via poe)
- wifi for all normal internet browsing (phones/tablets/laptops/guests)
Have you looked at those mesh routers for wifi range? Our place will almost be 53sq so reckon we might need one lol. Either that or access points...
I'd always go access point wired to a data point. One ground floor one first floor. Try to place them in the middle for best coverage, and look for APs with longer, omnidirectional antennae.
