I wish Deco did POE, I use some older TP link stuff on my ceilings, but no way can I run power to the ceilings.

If you have cable to your APs why do you want a meshing AP?

Reduce issues with handoff between access points when moving around the house?

This is why I moved from a mesh network (Ubiquiti Amplifi) to APs (Ubiquiti Unifi)... I added ethernet cabling.

NB: I push large files around the home network, on Sunday I moved 1TB and the limiting factor was the write speed of HDDs... but this is how it should be, the network shouldn't be the limiting factor.

Don't particularly want meshing, what I want is relatively cheap, attractive looking, decent easy to use interface, reliable and POE. I currently have TP Link EAP ones, they look ok, they are POE, but the interface is awful and they seem to spend as much time offline as online for no apparent reason.
