I use the Unifi access points. They work well and are fairly inexpensive. The management software can change settings on all of them at once, which is really handy if you have several.

Which ones do you have? Which ones would you get if you were buying now?

My access points are AC Lite and and U6 Lite. Those are discontinued though.
If I get more for inside, I would probably get the U6+. I am also thinking about getting one of the AC Mesh access points for outside. I’m not too worried about speed since anything that needs high speed is wired. I don’t have any neighbors, so I have all the bands to myself. If you are in an urban area, you should probably consider one with 6GHz support.

What are your thoughts on the U6+ vs U7 Pro? I’m not in an apartment so I probably don’t need 6 GHz? The U7 pro seems more modern and future proof, though but I do like the OpenWrt compatibility in case I don’t like stock firmware.

The U6+ will nearly max out gigabit with a 160MHz channel. The U7 Pro can provide higher speeds, but keep in mind there is only room for a single 240MHz channel on 5GHz. You will need 2.5G ethernet to take advantage of the higher speeds.
Interference from any other WiFi networks within your channel will slow things down a lot though. That makes running with channels wider than 80MHz difficult if there are any other networks in range.
