I *am* trying have a wifi solution, but with the equipment I've  
already got.

Meanwhile.. a wired solution is looking to be ok. I just have
to manoeuver creatively around some obstacles.

FWIW, the Deco x50 is crap. For one thing, although it supports  
both 2.4g and 5g bands, there is only one SSID for the device.  
So.. the user can't select a specific band. It decides what is  
"best" for the attempted connection.  I've never had a 5g  
connection with it, even while standing a few feet away from  
it.  The TP-Link forum is rife with complaints about this.  
Infact, many of the other models of the Mesh variety have that  
limitation.
