I am currently in the market for some wireless access points and thought I'd get some suggestions here first. I am currently using some old eero pro's as access points with a firewalla router. The firewalla isn't old and I am happy with it so I am not looking to replace it with something at this time.

Are there suggestions for more privacy focused networking equipment? Or is that just a dumb question to ask?

So it's just like mini routers just dedicated to internet, with better quality and reliability, that connect to the main router when it's near, but give you a stronger signal?

I like to think of them as Ethernet switches that happen to have WiFi. Their goal is just to bridge (in the colloquial sense, not necessarily networking sense) WiFi to Ethernet.
