Context

At present we are using the default Wifi Access Point / Router provided by the ISP #107.
This is fine while the house is still "in development", but undesirable for a number of reasons the first being a lack Wifi coverage and the last a lack of security (threat monitoring/detection). Also, the ISP (and every person in tech support who works for them) has full access to our internal network including all our devices and traffic. 🙄
We need to put a decent firewall between the ISP Router and our internal network and then disable the Wifi on the ISP Router.

We have already purchased a Ubiquti Networks Unifi 16-port POE Gigabit Switch https://www.ui.com/unifi-switching/unifi-switch-16-150w and a Pack of 5 Unifi Long Range Access Points https://www.ui.com/unifi/unifi-ap-ac-lr
So we have the Wifi covered (in terms of equipment) for both indoor and exterior internet access.
There are 28 RJ45 cables connecting the basement to the rest of the house. One RJ45 Port in each room and several in corridors. The ceilings of the Garage, Leisure Room and Co-working/Classroom all have ports on the Ceiling in order to connect projectors or other equipment.

If we chose to use all the RJ45 Ports, which I suspect we will, we will need to purchase another 16/24 Port Switch. (TBD)
The reason I have not purchased the rest of the equipment yet, is because we need to do a full assessment of our needs. e.g: do we need all the RJ45 Ports to be POE or will a regular (much cheaper) switch suffice?
I have a strong preference for using Ubiquti hardware https://www.ui.com because they have superb UX and security. It's always more expensive than the cheapest (TPLink or Huawei), but this is an area I don't think we want to skimp on.

Todo

• Build/Buy Networking Switch Cabinet/Rack to store/protect all our networking equipment.
  Needs to fit the equipment we end up buying (see below).
• Research and buy remaining network equipment

I have been putting off setting up the network because I expect it to take several days and is only relevant when we need advanced networking features such as the POE for the Security System / Door Entry. Help very much appreciated.
