The most cost effective way to get consistent and fast internet is over a wire.
My rule is that if it doesn’t move, and if it has an ethernet port, it gets a wired connection. TVs, gaming Consoles, the laptop that lives on a desk/table…this stuff. Then the stuff that does move or can’t be wired to a switch can have the wireless bandwidth it needs.
So, OP, you need a box of Cat5e spec UTP cable, a bunch of ends and the tool to put them on the cables you make, and a switch or two with 8 or more ports each.
Next is to find wireless access points that are wifi6 and capable of covering your home. 2000sqft can usually be covered by a single unit of any top tier routers from most manufacturers. I’m partial to Asus for home use. After this, it’s a matter of configuration.
If you have many neighbours, turn off the 2.4GHz band radio (if possible for the wireless-only clients). If you don’t have wifi coverage where you need it, add another WAP (NOT a mesh node) - it’ll be easy to deploy with a wired backbone infrastructure already in place.
