Which hardware to choose

[jtomasrl]

Im making my yearly shopping list and for the next few months I want to improve my home network hardware.

 

So far I've been looking for an AP and a Switch, I'll keep the ISP router for now (wifi disabled). I'm looking for a 3x3 MU-MIMO AP (yes, I have compatible devices) and a 8 port gigabit switch with LAG (managed). So far I've found this options, but since I'm just starting into this network stuff, I'm not quite sure which brand to prefer.

AP: After noting the Unifi AC lite/pro doesn't support MU-MIMO, I found this option which seems great for my needs ZyXel NWA1123-AC HD, but I'm not sure how this brand is, although I've read of them a few times.

 

Switch: I had in mind this at first Tp Link T1500G-8T, but then I found this ZyXel GS1900-8 to match the AP, but also this Netgear GS108Ev3 appeared in the search. I'm not interested in PoE so far.

 

I will be using 6 ports of the switch for wired devices and for the AP I'll be using just 1 for a "small" apartment (80-90m2).
